so we could get down to business. we divided the exhibitors in two, those who were headed by signac and luce, the other made up of artists of the new generation. on one side of the central room the rooms would be given to the older members; on the other, the young painters organised the rooms that had been given to them. for our part, we took room 41. in the following rooms, andré lhote, segonzac, la fresnaye etc. would take their place. it was at this moment that we got to know each other.
