Back- and front cover of the catalogue of the Mail Art exhibition 'Verzamelen / Collecting', in 2011 in the library of the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, Netherlands.

The catalogue has also been published online, see this url.

Issued in 2008, but still available today, is 'Envelopes' by Harriet Russell. I would like to recommend it. She has a very creative mind, and did not write addresses on the envelopes in a common way, but made all kind of puzzles of it.

Some excerpts from this very inspiring book:

 

Great ideas, aren't they?!

See here for more pictures of these envelopes published in this Mail-company challenging book. Most of them arrived safe and sound!

BILDERBRIEFE mail art. 

Splendid book edition on the origins of mail art, from the archives of Staeck and friends.

A selective approach but with excellent historic documents on how mail art was rebel art for all dictatorships in the world, focus on the former eastern german republic and south america.

Texts are in german only, so a loss for all who cannot read that tongue.

But for the rest: 140 pages of pure delight !!!
