The event will be enriched by Cuba, my country, with different performances of ballet, theater, fi lms, lectures, etc. Our friend Alain Jouffroy has told me that he talked to you about this project and about how happy I would be to have a presentation of yours in the catalog. For what I represent as a painter born in the Third World, in this struggle which engages us all today. Aimé Césaire, García Márquez, Alejo Carpentier, Sebastián Gash, and Alain Jouffroy will contribute to the catalog. Upon your response, we can meet during one of my trips to Paris, from September 15. Regards, [Lam’s signature] W. Lam 47. Boulevard de Beauséjour Paris 16 Tel: 288-39-10
