You are invited to participate in an International Mail Art Envelope Exhibition with the theme''Denmark is....''that will be held atKulturstationen Vanløse, Copenhagen, Denmarkin May 2018.
What comes into your head when you think about Denmark – Hamlet & Elsinor Castle? The stories of Hans Christian Anderson? Danish blue cheese? Lego bricks (there are about 62 for every person in the world!)? The Tivoili Gardens in the centre of Copenhagen? The Little Mermaid statue? Carlsberg beer? Danish bacon?
We all have different images of the country, and we would like you to send us an Envelope with your visions of Denmark on it.
Envelopes can be any size, but should be no bigger than A5 -- 2.3 x x 1.6.cms/8.3 x 5.8 inches.
The front of each Envelope should include your view of what 'Denmark is....', for example a painting, drawing, collage, etc.
On the back of the Envelope please include your name, contact details and any other information that you think might be relevant.
Only the front of the Envelopes will be displayed in the Exhibition (so there is no need to put anything inside your Envelope).
Please send your Envelopes to:
Helle Pollas Tureby alle 29a 2650 Hvidovre Denmark before 25 April, 2018
There will be no jury, no fees, and no return of the Envelopes. All the Envelopes submitted will be exhibited, but anything deemed offensive, unsuitable for our visitors, or straying too far from the brief may not be included. A blog will be set up on which the received Envelopes can be seen.
Futher information can be obtained from Isaac Kenneth Donkor cr1z@kff.kk.dk, or helle.pollas@gmail.com
Kulturstationen Vanløse is a cultural and social hub offering a wide selection of cultural activities for adults and children. It is visited by more than 380,00 each year. Annually, Kulturstationen Vanløse presents 300 cultural events, which, in 2018, will include the International Mail Art Exhibition 'Denmark is..' and two related events – Valentine Mark Herman's 'An Envelope a Day for a Year', and an exhibition of childrens' envelopes pproduced at a series of workshops with the theme, 'My Copenhagen...My Denmark....'
The Hannah Hoch Fan Club page members have a little project on the go. It is rather last minute and more than a little ramshackle as nobody is in charge but it might be called 'Hannah Hock's Birthday Box' and it involves everyone sending everyone else a piece of work which the individual artists will collate into a box that they make or find or purchase at great expense from a local (to them) emporium. Her Birthday was the first of November so that is the nearest thing we have to a deadline though I doubt if anyone would object if things continue to arrive for a year or so.
Dear people, what kind of glue do you use for your collages? I used waterbased liquid adhesive and stick glue. First one dries hard, not elastic and in case you bend a glued postcard it "cracks" up. The last one just has to get a bit humid - and the parts fall off. I saw that many of you use a glue you can also use to put on top of the collages and it dries elastic, like rubber. What is it? Tell me your collage secrets!
Here's what I use. Spread a thin coat on both surfaces. Let it "flash" (shine dries to a dull/matte finish), then carefully register both pieces together as it is not repositionable.
