"I Regret to Inform You..." Artist Response:
Mr. Madden had hired architect Curt Fentress to design a bespoke space, created to house the 3 artworks. The rejection felt arbitrary, capricious and cruel. The Labyrinth was Roger Leitner's last major work, Todd Siler's painting was created specific for the space, and Chandelier Chardin was my career's largest and most important work to date. Not to mention most valuable. Part of my legacy was stolen.
