Would you have any contact details for Henri Chopin - I knew him in the 80's but when he returned to France after his wife's death we lost touch. I believe he is living in East Anglia now but have been unable to find any other details - thanks

I knew Henri Chopin when I was a colleague of his late wife Jean in Essex in the 1970s and would like to get in touch too. Also I have 3 of his artworks in my possession: The Immaculate Contraception, l'arc de triomphe and The Cage (all signed and numbered prints). Are there any collectors or galleries who might be interested?

Hi
It is great that Henri's work and ,memory are being preserved
and projected. I met Henri and jean through their son Denis
when we both attended Chelmsford College and the family lived in the beautiful gatehouse in Ingatestone. There were some wonderful events held at the gatehouse. is there anyone out there who knows of Denis or Bridget Chopin (who I know was in Norfolk in the 1980's). Henri was a profound influence on me and I would love to get back in touch with Denis if he is still around!

Hi Bridget
I hope you remember me?
I am so sorry to hear of Henri's passing. I was on the internet
checking out movies of Henri's work to show students, when I saw a posting referring to his passing.
My email is jacarandablank@hotmail.com
I hope that you and your family are coping. Could you tell me if Denis is OK?
best wishes
Jeremy

Dear Brigitte
I was so sorry to hear that your father had passed away. Please accept my sincere condolences.
I met him in the 1990s when Nicholas Zurbrugg was busy arranging all manner of avant-garde events at de Montfort University, which I also had the honour of being a part of with my interests in Fluxus and sound art as an Archive Curator at Tate.
I would very much like to be in touch with you and would be most grateful if you could contact me here at Tate Britain, Millbank, London SW2 5JS.
With kind regards,
Adrian Glew
