V R

As the principal biographer of Robert Wechsler, it is important for me document the events of his professional and personal life. Occasionally it becomes necessary to provide these events for Mr. Wechsler. I propose to provide Mr. Wechsler with two
3-dimensional cardboard letters—a capital “V” and a capital “R”—that are in fact the first letters of the words “vision”
and “request.”

Mr. Wechsler will be obligated to manage and maintain these letters for the duration of his time at the A-Z West compound. Mr. Wechsler is also obligated to be photographed interacting with the letters, and to send this documentation to his principal biographer. At the culminating event on Saturday, May 19th, Mr. Wechsler will be free to utilize the letters as a component of a larger spectacle. It is hoped that if Mr. Wechsler chooses to set the letters on fire, that he will do so in a controlled and professional manner. If the letters threaten to burn to the point of conflagration, then Mr. Wechsler is advised to beat down the flames using his own person.

Alas that the letters never arrived...
