Received: Fluxus word mail-art and performance score from Ruud Janssen (Breda, Netherlands)

October 22 - Ruud Janssen has released a new mail-art series featuring Fluxus words on hand-painted envelopes. You can see other examples here at the IUOMA and elsewhere on mail-art blogs. These captured my interest as soon as they appeared because the creation of Fluxus words seemed to be such an intriguing process. Only I had no idea how they were created, what they meant, or how… Continue

The wonderful world of Jimmy McCullough



Toss your happy pills, people, a daily dose of McCullough's art will do it for you. All the colors of the rainbow and more, elegantly sown in a garden of lines and curves.

I don't know if you can see it from the picture, but the upper part of the card and the circle in the middle were cut out. I'm surprised the circle didn't lose its fragile arm during the long trip, but it made it through. I guess the postal system is doing… Continue

CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED

10 of you have some VERY BAD ART coming your way. It was mailed today. There IS a wARniNg on the envelope. As for me, it's time to brush off the glitter and make good art. I'll be a shadow from this site for 2 weeks or so while I detox from the GLitTEr and reconnect with my art soul. BYe aND eNJoy!!!!!!!

Received: Cryptic mail-art from Jon Foster (Winston Salem, North Carolina, USA)

October 21, 2010 - Jon Foster sent me a second round of mail-art, and there certainly has been some evolution. The earlier work I remember was much more minimalist and image-dependent. He appears in this piece to be moving toward mail-art that integrates image and text - a slippery slide toward vispo? The printer images indicate a movement toward more complex collage and material… Continue

October 20, 2010 - A number of IUOMA members have contributed to the mail-art show organized by John Held, Jr. in conjunction with the Black Mountain Museum and Arts Center conference (North Carolina) held October 8-10.
