> 				Message to the family of Allan Kaprow upon his death :
>
> Ever since we met, back in 1961, and worked together at the Judson  
> Gallery in N.Y., then Paris, in 1963 and 1994, later in Iceland,  
> Taiwan, Milano and many other worlds, Allan and I felt a deep sense  
> of brotherhood and spiritual kinship. In my eyes he was, is and  
> will remain one of the major artists and thinkers of our time,  
> towering over it from a philosophical position of autonomy which he  
> very carefully chose. I deeply love and respect Allan and cherish  
> the many delightful adventures we experienced together in a tribal  
> way, with great dadaist laughs leading to Tantric detachment.
>
> May the Kaprow family feel how much their loss is that of the  
> entire Rhizom of thinking humans. It was an honor to have been  
> close to him.
>
>      							Yours truly,
>
> 						     Jean-Jacques Lebel.
