History of IUOMA membershipcards

Since the beginning in 1988 there were always IUOMA membershipcards printed and distributed. Not in a central way, but mostly by a member designing a card and distributing the cards. Sometimes they send them to the General-President for a signature. So several variations of the membership cards are in archives and collections. Always a new variation and always connected to someone who says he/she is an IUOMA-member. Also in 2016 and 2017 cards will be sent out, and IUOMA members will design new cards for sure. In this group we collect all the designs and activities connected to these IUOMA mebership cards.

When you receive an IUOMA membership card. Please sign it and make a photo of you holding the card and publish it here. If you want a special membership card for this purpose, just let me know.

Plan for 2019 is:

step one : we need a design for a membership card 2019

step two : we print it on thick paper and distribute.

step three : we start using our membership cards when visiting official institutions and document the results in this group.

Due to postal rates no hardcopy membership cards are sent out since 2020.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on January 14, 2011 at 8:33am: Bonjour!

The first thing I did when got my much-wanted IUOMA card was to loose it! Clever, eh? It fell under my desk, and I turned my whole study/den upside down before I could find it. I even blamed one of the cats for absconding with it, and am still not sure that it was not responsible for knocking the card off my desk and then patting it underneath it.

I have a collection of cards from my previous reincarnation when I attended conferences, exhibitions, company HQs and so on. Now my IUOMA card sits slap bang in the middle of them on one of my bookcases. It has pride of place, and deservedly so.

I am going to incorporate my card in the literature and promotional material for my forthcoming Exhibition, and will wear it on the day of the opening. I'll also include it on my website www.val-herman-art.eu (which already mentions IUOMA) when I can get it scanned.

The cats have been warned about further acts of sabotage.

THANKS FOR THE CARD, RUUD!

Regards, Val

Comment by Ruud Janssen on December 31, 2010 at 9:41am: The format of the membership card 2011 has also been published on Facebook. From there also some people are starting to print the card on paper. I hope this works in getting a card to every IUOMA member. I am looking forward to see the results. I hope you al understand I can't just send out 1400 cards (paper, envelopesm postage, time). I will do my best to include cards with my outgoing mail-art.

Comment by Ruud Janssen on December 30, 2010 at 12:56pm: Sample of how the new 2011 IUOMA membership Card can look like. First cards are sent into the Mail-Art network. I am currious to what mail-artists do with these cards. Do they serve a purpose? Also older stories would be interesting to hear.
