For the last years it sure is one of the biggest ones, or even the biggest since some years. The digital times tend to make the snail mail less, so that is quite an achievement!

Thanks again, Ruud.

I will moderate my claim along the lines of 'one of the largest Mail Art exhibitions in recent years'.

That should be OK, I think.

Guy Bleus did projects (also one off with exhibitions and books to document it) with thousands of participants in the 80-ies and 90-ies. ou can claim the biggest. Knowing history tells another story. Ruud.

p.s. more larger projects were done. Even the first Omaha Show (a fluxus event) that started all these exhibitions was larger.

Thanks, Ruud.

Mine is a one off exhibition, not an on-going project. So -- unless anyone tells me otherwise -- I WILL claim it is the biggest ever.

I have now more than 1100 postcards.

The projects by Guy Bleus (Belgium) used to have more than 1000 participants. But for the current time it surely is a huge project.

Bravo, Val.

What is the BIGGEST Mail Art Exhibition that's ever been held? 'Biggest' in terms of number of pieces received.

My forthcoming Post Card Exhinition in Sigean, France, in August, will have well over 1000 contributions.

Can I claim this as the biggest in the world, the biggest in Europe, the biggest in Sigean, the biggest ever, the biggest in 2013, etc?

Can you help?

And then I can write to the Guinness Book of Records. (Or drink a Guinness)

Thank you.

Susan: turn off your computer, go for a walk, enjoy life. Come back later, much later. Val

Can someone tell me how to disconnect from chat? Thanks.
