Dear Jamie,
THank you for contacting me. Of course I remember Robert and his extraordinary mother, Johanna, I think of her every time I'm in Mpls, wondering how she is doing. I also have several pieces of Robert's art, which I cherish. I would be happy to be a part of the gallery show, whatever I can do. I don't know when you plan to do it, or whether I could be there, but I'lll call you. Also there is Heather MacDonald, the filmaker who I know would be very interested as well, we produced a gallery show of Robert's work here in NY shortly after his death, it's a good time for another one.
Best to you and to Johanna,
Jill
