This is a very encouraging response. My guess is that we should restrict listings to shows of Burroughs’ artwork: drawings, paintings, sculpture, photographs, and not include bibliographic exhibitions of rare books and mss but then again, some of Bill’s mss were very beautiful and clearly had an artistic element in them, as was seen at the recent show at the Viennakunstalle, so its really up to RealityStudio to decide. When enough new entires arrive I’ll do a new draft of the piece incorporating all the additions, unless Keith would like to add them in as they arrive?

What about the New Museum show Brion Gysin: Dream Machine? The Third Mind project was exhibited as were numerous Burroughs/Gysin collaborations. Probably not fair to imply it is a group show with Burroughs but wanted to make sure you omitted it on purpose.
