Letter from Walter De Maria to Robert Scull, 25 Oct. 1968. 4 pp. Robert Scull papers, ca. 1968–1983.
In 1968, artist Walter De Maria (b. 1935) gained an international reputation as a leader in earthworks, when he filled the Galerie Heiner Friedrich in Munich with dirt. In this letter to collector Robert Scull (1917–1986), De Maria apologizes for mistaken reports of Scull’s patronage in the European press. De Maria indicates his distrust of reporters for their “extensions of fact” and “assumptions.”
