Cy darling,

Hope you get this letter in time to do what will be necessary if you are to have a show (which you must have) this year. You will have to bring your paintings with you as we have scheduled your show for January and whipped up a lot of advance interest so it cannot be delayed - as the Galley is booked solid for the rest of the year. As you might remember paintings have to be in the Gallery to be reviewed by the magazines before the 10th of the previous month - which in your case means December 10th - that is, if you want magazine reviews - and not depend just on Stuart Preston. If you skipped the magazines could you possible paint a show in six weeks -? Heavens! Get everything from Cardazzo and Giorgio please and don't delay any longer.

Incidentally, I desperately want your apartment before you will be using it and as Ray Johnson is only using it for storage would you explain to him that I have a;prior claim on it? Please do and ask him to get me the keys immediately - want to get in there November 1st to use until you arrive and any time after you leave it. I will take over the rent as of November 1st..Darling, please write Ray Johnson immediately telling him you will be using it on your return and I'm to have it for some work before you arrive - send the letter express - as I will need a telephone immediately.

Love and Kisses,
