Mail-Art History

Information

In this group I ask members to place links to sources (new and historic ones) for people who like to do research on the subject of mail-art.

I will moderate this group, so postings not related to the subject will be edited or deleted. There are plenty of places in other groups for that.

Comment by Ruud Janssen on June 12, 2015 at 5:18am: just publish the links here, then they are visible for all.

Comment by Keith S. Chambers on June 11, 2015 at 7:57pm: CJ Kid, is there a link to your cyberstamp exhibit that you can share here?

Comment by CrackerJack Kid on June 11, 2015 at 3:46pm: Ruud, You are most welcome to reprint any of my current essays and post them here. You can download three essays I've written that were posted on academia.edu. I think it would be especially useful to introduce my "Cyberstamp" Internet exhibition to I.U.O.M.A.…an important contribution that somehow was erroneously left out of John Held's recent book about ARTISTAMP HISTORY. There is no mention of The Electronic Museum of Mail Art either.

In the year 2008 the International Union of Mail-Artists (IUOMA) was 20 years old. This book contains texts by Ruud Janssen, John Held Jr., Wilma Duguay, Tulio Restrepo, Vittore Baroni and Geert de Decker. As illustrations lots of images are used created by IUOMA-members over the years to support the union idea.
