   "Carolee Schneeman, who discussed her friendship with Mendieta

Most riveting, however, was her frank assertion that she is convinced 
that Andre murdered Mendieta. "She made me change her light bulbs. She 
was afraid of heights. She would never go near the window," Schneeman 
confided, adding how eerie it is to her that Andre still lives in the 
same apartment from which Mendieta plunged to her death, and that his 
new wife allegedly makes window-based artworks."
