Oskar Kokoschka

Sir: I am writing a biography of Oskar Kokoschka, with the approval of Mrs Olda Kokoschka, which is to be published by Bloomsbury and the Viking Press in 1994. I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who has reminiscences of Kokosch- ka during his years in Austria, Czechoslo- vakia, Germany, France, England, Scotland and the United States, or who has collected his work. I would be grateful for the loan of relevant letters, photographs or press cut- tings, which would be carefully copied and safely returned.
