Response of Gerard Malanga to my fan letter, scratched on a car sun shade, red green mini laser light, 62x125,5 cm., 2012-2014
"Dear Jaume, Thank you for your fan letter. It’s comforting to know that my work has made a difference and has reached out to people like yourself. I may know or give the illusion of knowing “how to reach success” as you put it; but I am far from that. I am, as Ezra Pound once characterized our lot, one of “the strugglers in the desert”. I don’t claim to know or understand or have solutions to the crises everyone on this planet are witness to. I do know that the enemy will eventually devour itself; and a new day will dawn for those remaining who have been true to themselves and their fellow earthly creatures and who have kept the faith. Maybe not in our time--though it would be nice if it does– but in some future time. Let’s hope that there’s enough of the natural resources & ecology left to sustain the next planet--this planet, wholly beatiful & unique. Adios, Gerard Malanga"
