Artist Dale Henry, (1931 – 2011) 1987, "The Unknown Artist,"“This bequest is the total of my art and comes without request or consultation. Please forgive me. You are the only person I trust who has the standards required. If you do not accept the placement of the art over a period of years, the art will be destroyed. I want the art to go only as GIFTS to persons who will look at them in situ over many years. I want NO SPECULATORS. We have had enough of those. If art is to be sustained, there must be some viewers remaining outside the speculative market.” - Dale Henry
I remember it fondly, I remember it deeply, I remember it in flashes, in migraines, in dance sequences, in hide and seek, in vaudeville acts, in shellshock, naked on a changing table, from behind your own eyes, I remember the virgin pricking her finger on the spindle of the spinning wheel, I remember it like it was tomorrow.
