Artwork Details:
‘It was a very small gallery in a tiny street not far from the Beat Hotel. I was just wandering around the streets and came across the open door where I could see Brion Gysin and the Dream Machine so I went in and he asked me to take some pictures which I did and they are the only pictures of Brion with his machine that I ever took. Later on, when putting the book together with Lagarde who was publishing it, we had a long argument… Brion insisted that it should be in the book that it was taken in the hotel, not in the Galerie Valerie Schmidt, or he wouldn’t contribute to the preface. Any time the picture of Brion sitting on the floor or also the ones taken close up were published, they were always written up as being in the Beat Hotel. ‘
