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 A: 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.

Jeffrey Epstein email chain discussing $1 million wire transfers and art acquisitions with associates

Jeffrey Epstein email chain discussing $1 million wire transfers and art acquisitions with associates The passage reveals concrete financial details (a $1 M account, plans for wire transfers, use of internet banking) and a network of individuals (Jeffrey Epstein, Darren Indyke, Etienne Binant) coordinating art purchases. While it provides actionable leads—specific amounts, dates, and parties—it does not directly implicate high‑ranking government officials or major institutions, limiting its overall impact. The controversy is moderate, focusing on Epstein’s alleged financial operations and art‑market dealings, which are already widely reported, so the novelty is limited. Key insights: Reference to a $1 million balance earmarked for checks or wires; Discussion of using internet banking and multi‑currency wires via a US bank (Interaudi); Plans to acquire artwork from emerging artists in LA, Berlin, etc.
