DescriptionThis letter sent by Barbara Hepworth to Margaret Gardiner concerns general news. Hepworth writes about Gardiner's writing. She also writes about recent extreme weather conditions making it difficult to get supplies, work or think. She also writes about their common friends, including Adrian's [Stokes] new book and Gabo's feelings on cubism. Contrary to Gabo she writes about liking the work of Picasso, Miro and Klee. Hepworth also writes about her art practice and the labelling of artists and says that she does not want to be called a constructivist
