Received: Part II mail-art prints from Brent Leopold (Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, USA)

September 30, 2010 - This posting is the second part (looks like a total of three) of one batch of outstanding mail-art prints Brent sent me from Pennsylvania. He did an amazing run of about 1,300 prints this summer. In one of the messages we exchanged, he was talking about how much he enjoys mail-art as an alternative to gallery shows - he does show his work on the ground too. All… Continue

Received: Soluble fish mail-art from Kiera Pannell (Montreal, Canada)

September 30, 2010 - Kiera Pannell, an object constantly in motion during the summer, seems to be settled for a while in the UK. She always told me she was from Canada, and the mail-art from her is addressed from everywhere else in the world. IUOMA members who were here over the summer might remember Kiera traveled across Europe and was… Continue

INSTRUCTIONS for The Crimson Giant and The Tower of Babel

The Crimson Giant and The Tower of Babel

Dear Fellow Collaborators,

This project we are embarking on is an organic process. Please do not stress about time limits, the use of a particular style etc. The greatness of this work is going to be the diversity of voices, the differing methodologies and artistic styles and the diverse interpretations of the

title. The broad idea behind the book is the…

Received: Text/ural mail-art from Marie Wintzer (Saitama, Japan)

September 29, 2010 - A long-anticipated piece of mail-art arrived in New York from Marie Wintzer about a week ago. I follow Marie's blog and have seen her postings here at the IUOMA, so I knew what I was getting. But nothing really substitutes for the original work itself. The central, post-card size image (above) is rich with layering, text/ure, and is made meticulously (remember… Continue

Mailart and Me - A mailart call for a show and mailart lecture on October 12th

Mailart. It's changed my whole life. Since discovering it, nearly 2 years ago, I can honestly say that mailart has heavily changed my life. Whereas before I discovered mailart, I was a science and technology person with a passing interest in art, I can now say I am an artist. Mailart has done this.

For me, art lessons at school were always a nightmare. I couldn't draw to save my life and I wasn't raised in an artistic family where images and sounds were valued. I could…

The "Odori", a Dramatic Dance in Old Time Costume - from RCBz

More art from RCBz today. Receiving postcards from your friends is always uplifting, but receiving mail art from a mystery person takes it to a whole different level doesn't it? Nearly gives me chills :-)

This is a great collage, featuring various japanese characters, traditional and modern. They all seem to be part of a dance "odori" performance on stage, a traditional tatami room (love the way the head of the rocker guy pops… Continue

Received: Mail-art from Fluxus artist JF CHAPELLE (Bordeaux Cedex, France)

September 28, 2010 - JF CHAPELLE sent me the piece above, which was included in an envelope that also contained a postcard you can see scanned further below. First the documentation for the entire piece. This past July I mailed the item pictured below to JF (photo courtesy of JF from his IUOMA portfolio). It consists of the plastic arm of a Barbie doll from Walmart, a… Continue

Received: Part I of Mail-art prints from Brent Leopold (Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, USA)

September 28, 2010 - In the expansive global community of mail-art, Brent Leopold and I are neighbors. I received one of my first pieces of mail-art as an IUOMA member from Brent. More recently, I saw some of his new prints posted on gail d whitter's blog (she's in Canada and a very interesting veteran of the legendary Vancouver poetry scene in addition to being a mail-artist). gail… Continue

Received: Cryptic post card from unknown mail artist (St. Cloud, Minnesota, USA)

September 27, 2010: A second installment of mail art arrived from my unknown correspondent in Minnesota. I've been waiting for an opportunity to say some small thing about cryptic mail-art (yes, I've joined the hyphen camp), as I think it is fairly unique to what we do and a definite part of any mail-art history I know. I only know a very small part of it compared to others here. I go first to Webster's…
