Re/Auction
Babak,

For some responses to the Camels-Cohen auction of Breton's studio contents, see the Chicago Group's website, and Flying Stone #2.

My piece from Flying Stone #2:

YOU SAY MUSEUM, I SAY MAUSOLEUM

The pillaging of André Breton’s studio at 42 Rue Fontaine was finalized in April with an auction of Breton’s possessions, despite the efforts of various demonstrators who called for the French government’s intervention on grounds of cultural preservation. Fortunately, the government declined these misguided invitations, perhaps due to Breton’s reputation as an enemy of the state. Unfortunately, the auction endured. While it is tempting to oppose this dispersal, what should be emphasized is not a nostalgic attachment to the collection, but the way in which Breton lived his life: as a seeker of the poetic eruption within the real. The walls of our personal cathedrals will only be adorned with the seditious gold of time, not ancestral relics.

Re: The 42 Rue Fontaine auction is good:
BTW, I don't have Aube's address, but even if I did I surely wouldn't give it to you. No offense, but you seem to be very much the *fan* of Breton rather than a seeker of the marvelous, especially with your now pronounced like of Mary Ann Caws. I find it very confusing that one minute your criticizing Willem den Broeder, but then you yourself are writing letters to Mary Ann Caws, one of the worst of the academic sphere.

PS Please don't post any more pictures. It makes the pages hard to read.

my defence

Amsterdam August 23, 2003


Before mr. Freels wrote:

" I delete your post, Babak, because it was completely off topic."

This kind of cencorship is understandible, what is not is that mr. Freels has not yet given a response to my defence conserning he's accusation of me being a Bretonianist.

I doubt mr. Freels's intellect when he accuses me of such a crime without knowing me personally nor my history, past and future.

I shall give mr. Freel's a week to give a response, within that week I shall still give a reply to that.

After that my internet activities will come to an end.

Re:
I do not know enough about this mr. Wigdor to form an opinion about hem.

As I said, mr. Shbeck had briefly described this Wigdor personality to me as egocentric and disturbing. If this is all that mr. Wigdor exists out of, I would found this man an agressor to the practising of intellectual debates.
I assume that you still accuse me of being this Wigdor Personallia despite of my extensive defence.
I found you injustifully autoritharian on this forum, sabotaging me by limiting my forum options.
I have given enough defences as well in the wigdor case as your accusation of me being a Bretonianist.

As I said I shall give you untill next monday to write a reasnible responce, within that week I shall still give a reply if worth.

Greetings,

Babak Andishmand
