When I was at art school c.1975 I used to drop by Art Metropole occasionally, when they were on Yonge Street, to look at their library. One of them ( a.a. bronson I think ) asked me to deliver a "book" to some friends in New York, since I was going down there on the OCA bus trip to see the galleries. I delivered a small paper-wrapped parcel to an address on the upper west side, the person who opened the door took it from me, said thanks, and closed the door quickly. I assume I was being used as some sort of mule.
yikes--sounds like a bit of a close call! i never saw the Yonge Street Art Metropole...i started at OCA in 77 and by that time they were in the Richmond St address. i didn't know AA at that time. i knew Tim Guest and Ann Dean a little...
as it happened, i got to know them a bit after i graduated because we were at the same gallery. that was early 80's--i think it was the time of the poodles....
