Information

Hannah Höch (fan club)

Some mail artists add a stamp print to their mail art, saying 'Hannah Hoch Fan Club'.

Until I received these stamp prints I never had heard of this artist, who was born 1st of November 1889. She has been a collage / photomontage pioneer. She was part of the Dada movement and also became involved in the De Stijl art movement. 

For anyone who has a Hannah Höch Fan Club Stamp (and interested others, I haven't one), this group can be the place to share your thoughts and mail art, tributing to and/or inspired by Hannah Höch.

A nice surprise Hannah collage card from Noriko in Japan!

Visual Mom, C.M. Bennett encouraged us all to participate in the Hannah Hoch Birthday Box project when we met up in Sounion, Greece, in October. Many thanks to Noriko...and to Visual Mom!

I finished my box today too!  Down the road I'll add a nicer documentation of everyone's contribution. They're all wonderful. And a special thanks to Maria for her blog & to Katerina Nikoltsou for suggesting we send something to Erni. He really liked getting a Hannah Hoch surprise in the mail.

Dear Birthday boxers,  Just to let you all know that I am getting some mail ready for Cicil Touchon's collage museum and archive.  I will be sending (hopefully) a small book of images of all the boxes made so far plus a disc of images that will be a thorough record of everything we have done between us.  I may also add a written explanation of the project along with one of my collages and anything else that comes to mind.  If anyone feels like making a little something to add to it, standard postcard size would be about right.  Send it to me and I will put it in with everything else.

I will package everything up in another little box and try and make a nice thing out of it. Something worth the keeping in a collection at least.

I have also nearly finished the paper documentation so that will be mailed out - hopefully before Christmas (fingers crossed).

There has been another fit of inspiration here and I am back working on the outside of my box again.  It was supposed to be a simple thing but it is getting more rococo by the day!

Dear Kat, Well done!  I like that you have used all the stickers and other bits and bobs.  It was the last box I needed for my little book which will be off to the printers tonight.  I can say that you will be getting more for your box before long.

I also have another little plan which I will explain in my next post . . .

I finished my "official" Hannah Hoch Birthday Box:

it is really not "wrapped up" yet,

as still waiting for a few more Hannahs to come in the mail maybe?

There are two of my Hannah cards that were returned,

so they became part of the art-box as did some of the

stamps and stickers from others!

Dear Birthday Boxers,  here is my finished (perhaps) box.

Comment by Mary Anne on November 23, 2019 at 9:59am

Dear Katerina, it is our project, not mine; we have achieved everything together and all I have done is to try and keep track of all the whos and whats.

I have Erni down on the list of 'official' participants  His enthusiasm is always worth including in any project.

A few shall be receiving collage cards from Hamburg, Germany, from Erni,(another unofficial member)  for their Hannah Hoch Birthday Boxes.

This arrived yesterday in Greece, with a stamping of Hannah's friend, and fellow artist, Kurt Schwitters:

Congrats on a great project,Mary Anne!
