Document content

Robert Dahlmann Olsen writes to Sonja Ferlov Mancoba about the advantages and disadvantages of collaborating with an art dealer – specifically Børge Birch. He further writes about the benefits of being a member of one of the larger Danish artists' associations: the March Exhibition, Grønningen, or Den Frie. He expresses his astonishment that she has not already been invited to join the March Exhibition and regrets that the former idealism and community in the artists' associations have vanished in favor of a sales enterprise. He offers to ask Svavar Gudnason if he would recommend her for Grønningen. Furthermore, he shares his opinion on a sale price for Résistance in connection with the work being shown at the Å Exhibition.
