DescriptionRelating to Gautier DeBlonde's photograph for 'Independent Magazine' of artists, patrons, trustees, and staff associated with the Chisenhale Gallery. Watts hopes the photograph 'will become a document of the Nineties British art scene'. Himid has not yet agreed to participate.

Encloses copy of fax from Judith Nesbitt, director, Chisenhale Gallery, Chisenhale Road, London, to John Kieffer, London Arts Board, relating to the photograph (18 July 1997). The accompanying article is to be written by Rosie Millard, and it will be published in September in the run-up the 1997 Turner Prize - three of that year's shortlisted artists had their first major UK solo exhibition at Chisenhale. Mentions Karen Hopkins.
