Wouldn't it be cool if one of the artists representing their country at the Venice Biennale decided to turn over the whole pavilion to a huge international Mail Art call out. There's something delightful in telegraphing the idea that all of us can be creative - even if we don't necessarily all call ourselves, 'artists' - and we all can have a voice, be seen, contribute to a conversation. Afterall, that's what social media has brought us. Or perhaps a Museum of Mail Art that accepts contributions 24/7 and rotates the displays all year round (if there is one, let me know). I'm all for breaking down barriers.

and more recently, Giovanni Bonanno organized a project with a Ray Johnson flavor:
