Mann was represented by the Edwynn Houk Gallery, in New York (from 1990, until she left for Gagosian in 2004). Thus, it was actually through Houk that Pace/MacGill had arrived at the chance to exhibit the "What Remains" show in their Chelsea gallery. Speaking on behalf of Houk Gallery (I was the Director at the time) it was an arrangement made because their space allowed for the volume of work in the exhibition, whereas ours, while large, would've required heavy editing. In retrospect, the show seemed to have been well served in a museum setting - an idea Houk had supported all along. Anyway, I assume that because Mann decided to leave Houk for Gagosian at the time the film was in the editing room, any mention of her then previous representaion on camera fell to the cutting room floor. Ironically, I believe they didn't want to confuse anyone.... By the way, I will not be offended should you choose not to publish the above on your site, and just make the correction instead. Sincerely, Jenni Holder Just a "fact-checker" comment...
