Original Typed and Signed Two-Page Letter (March 27, 1989), Handwritten Note, and Blueprint Drawing From Tamara B. Thomas, President of Fine Arts Services Inc., To Artist David Hockney
Edité par Fine Arts Services Inc., 1989
Manuscrit / Papier ancien Edition originale Signé
Paper Ephemera. Etat : Fine. 1st Edition. A unique item. Offered are three items: a typed and signed letter from Tamara B. Thomas, President of Fine Arts Services Inc., dated March 27, 1989 to artist David Hockney; a hand-written note she added and paper-clipped to the typed letter (dated "3/27"); and a blueprint drawing of the proposed project. The lengthy letter reads in short part: "Enclosed is some visual information [the blueprint] on a new project in Chicago [Savings of America, 120 N. La Salle]. It is a Helmut Jahn designed building in a prime downtown location - My client wishes to commission an important artist to design the 27' x 54' radiused panel above the entry door to the building (see drawing). It is possible that a mural might be painted in this space, but the feeling is that a mosaic would be the richest, most permanent and most practical medium to withstand Chicago's climate. The client is willing to spend up to $1,000,000 for this work [with "hard costs" of execution, shipping and installation estimated between $250,000 and $400,000]. You are our first choice for this project and we would be delighted if you were interested." The text of the handwritten note to the letter reads in full: "To: Whomever opens this (Karen?) - If DH is out of town or unable to consider this situation until a later date, please [underlined] let us know. If we receive no response at all by April 10 we willl conclude DH has seen this & has no interest. Many thanks - Tamara Th". The large blueprint drawing shows the Savings of America building with especial focus on where the mosaic panel would be located. [The artist who ultimately designed the panel, entitled "Flight of Daedalus and Icarus," was Roger Brown]. Lacks original mailing envelope. Signed by Author(s).
