Document content

Sonja Ferlov Mancoba writes to Helen Lassen that she still does not feel ready for an exhibition at Sophienholm, although she appreciates Lassen's efforts. She wishes to have something new to add to her message since the exhibition at the Art Association before she draws attention to herself. Regarding her work on the sculpture Élan vers l’avenir, she writes that it is a relief to have let it go after 12 years, but that she still considers it unfinished.
