I'm under the impression that checks will be exceptional (they are more cumbersome to handle), and we will use mostly wires. Considering the time difference, my heavy travel and my own propension to do things at night and on week- ends I would much prefer having an internet code and be able to organize everything online when I need to. When I use Interaudi (my US bank), they can do that, store the recurring beneficiaries, and do wires in multiple currencies, but I am not familiar with DB.

Also, your point about bookkeeping is mitigated by the fact that, in any case, I will also need to have someone keeping track of the receipts and inventory, before shipping proofs to you. In any case there will be need for some work on my side before final filing is done. On the other hand, if there is a "checks and balances" control issue, there could be a cap to my wiring powers (like the 10 K we discussed), that would be absolutely fine for me if this is the intent. Please do let me know. We can also talk about it (in Hawai now, free after 2 PM your time) In any case, this is good and happy news. I'll review the first list of payments over the week-end.

We can prepare checks or wires for you to sign upon request. This way book keeping gets done at same time. Just send back up with each request. How does that sound?

Just tell me what number I should reach. Not sure what got lost in translation here: never had the intention to go to any art fair or art show or anything of the kind. All the artists we have in mind or send to you are people we have direct connections with. Not just their studio, but also their home. They are people the work of whom we follow, and many of them are already friendly (Arianna, Cali have had dinner or stayed home). The idea is absolutely to have an impact on the ecosystem and to make a difference by supporting great artists when they need it. Galleries references are important, because galleries allow artist to reach a broader audience. We would go directly to the source. This is why it's important for me to go to LA or Berlin (or elsewhere) because those artists are not rich yet, they dont travel so much. They belong to a scene, and it does make a big difference to them if you connect in person. The spirit is to have an impact on young, talented folks, and absolutely to stay at the source. Once again, not sure was drifted away from this in communication E De : jeffrey E. <[email protected]> Envoye : vendredi 10 fevrier 2017 12:32 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 032488A: Etienne Binant Cc: Darren Indyke Objet: Re: update going to artists studio s much more appropriate , i think On Thu, Feb 9, 2017 at 9:49 PM, Etienne Binant wrote: Gentlemen I hope you are having a great week.
