BANANAS

Information

AKA Anna Banana Appreciation Band (ABAB)

The theme is Bananas & Anna Banana. Many of our members are « bananas » themselves, others are »fruity », a few are « nutty », and one is completely « ape ».

If you are none of these, don’t worry we can help you with specially designed projects and exams for your progress to the banana status you deserve.

We will also explore the many works of Anna Banana as we give appreciation for involvement in Mail Art & "Art".

PS I you are « crackers » or « loony », this group may not be for you.

Also: see link and fill in the form and return it to Anna Banana!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 20, 2012 at 12:50pm: Janine...Chiquita bananas from Colombia via SWITZERLAND???? ;-)

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 20, 2012 at 12:47pm: Thank you, Angie, for bringing the link for Banana Man here...and his Banana Underground. That is Wolfgang Skodd in Germany, and he is a member here at IUOMA but no longer uses his page. He had a bad run in with a hacker/virus...so I guess he did a banana split?

Comment by DKeys on January 20, 2012 at 12:47pm: Bananas in pajamas is a great song--but my computer is not letting me post the youtube link. Delicious looking fried bananas Janine!!

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on January 20, 2012 at 11:31am: Oh Janine, wow it just occurred to me, yes I bet you are actually LIO using the name of Janine just to fool us. Welcome to the Band, we have a singer!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 20, 2012 at 11:06am: You can polish your shoes with banana skins...oh, yes,

it is on the Anna Banana Bingo list ;-)

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on January 20, 2012 at 7:34am: Welcome Cernjul & Ruud, The more Bananas the better the Band plays!

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on January 20, 2012 at 7:17am: Thank You Ruud for all this information and the Anna Banana Research form. The form we were speaking about was Dean's Anna Banana Bingo Banana sweepstakes. And yes, once completed, you can win a lunch with Anna Banana herself! Do you mean you have never received a copy? Is there a way to put a powerpoint file on the site that "Band" memebers can download?

Comment by Ruud Janssen on January 20, 2012 at 6:36am: Mail-Interview with Anna Banana

Also interviewed Anna Banana. Published in bookform too with others...

see: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/mail-interviews---part-1/2663836

Comment by Ruud Janssen on January 20, 2012 at 6:33am: You could still print the forms, fill them in and return them to Anna Banana. She gave me this last year when I met her in Maastricht at Hedah where Rod Summers was doing an exhibition. She did a performance and I did a performance there. Have some photos too (will look them up. Also Met Her in Hagen (Germany) and San Fransisco (USA) on other occasions, but that were the 90-ies. Also interesting photos I will have to look up.
