To: From: David Kratz Sent: Thur 10/11/2012 8:47:36 PM Subject: for Jeffrey from the New York Academy of Art Dear Jeffrey, Preparations are for Take Home a Nude are fast and furious. I just finished the curation and it's going to be a knockout show. We would be thrilled if you would come. Here's some EXCITING news, Francesco Clemente just donated a truly beautiful piece for the auction. It is "Untitled," 18 x 24", watercolor on paper, 2008, estimated value of $65,000, starting bid of $30,000. (See below.) Knowing of the circles you travel in, I wanted you to have a preview. I thought you might have some ideas of people who could be interested. These kinds of things don't come up for sale that often. And, of course, a successful sale would have an enormous impact on the school. Best, David PS — The live auction will also feature other works by artists like George Condo, Will Cotton, and Pat Stier. I'll be sending a preview email shortly. EFTA_R1_00827981 EFTA02157504
