It seems to me that if the Biennale is to be alive and important it must accomodate and encourage iniative and I can hardly bring myself to work on another DUMB DRAMATICA  orphan tapestry for another BIENNALE. Pauli (in recent letter) thinks an act, a fete, is too short-lived. What do you think?

I've tried to work up some enthusiasm for the Lausanne summit thread conference but it (enthusiasm) is all drained or syphoned off into DEVIOUS other directions - HMM - and I am in favor of

open ended
give and take
participation, these days, thread,
tapestries are subject to this
just as much as light
sculpture
painting
environments 
and all the rest.

Perhaps I could weave plastic threads up and down and across the stairway and all weavers could cut their passage into the show or vice verse. Make a basic web and give thread to each to weave along the way. Symbolically this could all be glorious HOMAGE to weavers.
