    Scope and content

    File consists of correspondence with AAG Fine Arts, owned by Arnold Gumowitz, managed by Penny Cohen, 421 7th Avenue, New York City. Arnold Gumowitz discovered Harrison at Gold Design in Calgary in 1986. He subsequently bought 5 of Harrison’s paintings and arranged a show in his Madison Avenue gallery. All 42 paintings seem to have been sold, though many of them may have been sold to Gumowitz’s gallery. A further exhibition was planned but did not take place. Correspondence continued until 19 January 1998 but no further shows were noted.

    File contains items related to the following:
    • 13 November 1986: Harrison sends 5 paintings on consignment
    • 29 March 1989: Harrison sends 37 paintings on consignment
    • 23 April 1989: shipped 400 prints and 100 Kobe exhibit posters with 3 paintings to NYC
    • 05-25 May, 1989: first US showing of Ted Harrison paintings, sold out, “total value of the paintings was $88,188”
    • 24 April 1989: AAG returned 200 prints and 300 posters to Harrison.
