galerie legitime (robert filliou's hat)
"inside my cap, on top of my head, i had small works of mine---at that time i used to make things where i used measurements, or i mummified them. then in the streets of paris i would walk through the streets, and i would come up to someone and a typical dialogue might be: "are you interested in art, monsieur or madame?" and if they said, "yes, yes," i would say: "well you know i have a gallery." and if they expressed some interest i would say: "here it is." there inside my hat were the works. they were perhaps a little bigger than this grape. and then we would look at the works.

so with the galerie légitime i could go through the streets, i could go also inside houses and other buildings, and many things happened to the galerie légitime. for instance, when i was in germany with another version i lost it, so i went around frankfurt looking for my gallery. at another time my gallery was stolen."
