My Dad had a horrible war, took six years of his young life... and he never ever talked about it, but what he did always say was how much Churchill was hated.

He's also very generous, which can be disarming in this dreadful world. Once he's finished with stuff— books, collections—he just gives them away, making sure that they're good homes mind.

Jeremy is a lovely man, who lives in a blessed place that he has honed and refined. He is, as you suggest, quite implausible, and his novels are in effect autobiographies; Ash Before Oak, which is the only one i've read, certainly was, as well as being nature writing with actual innocence.

That, and your list, sounds fascinating. Talking of "transforming the storefront gallery", as it does in the Gagosian press release, did you ever see the photo of Stephen Duncalf's recreation of Edward Hopper's 'Seven A.M.' at Coracle Press in 1984. I'm still not sure

Thanks Jeremy for the long-distance screen tour, it looks wonderful; it looks edible. :)
On the subject of small-shows and value, and i'd sort of jig up in my mind to pay £20, the Courtauld does make distilled exhibitions very well... the Mondrian/Nicholson show in 2012 is very high in my top list.

I borrowed this LP from the newly-built Sutton Library in the mid-70s, when that London Borough, and Wergo, provided an expansive world to discover.
Those abstract covers and especially the uniqueness of Continuum have stuck for years:
