ADD & PASS - The X Files
In the Mail Art activity, there are interesting ideas that are explored, like Mail Art Calls, Collaborative Books, Visual Poetry etc, and we also have the ADD & PASS, which are created somewhere in the world by a Mail Artist who send by mail one "object", proposing that it be changed or simply Added an Artistic Intervention by another Mail Artist, appealing that the "object" being referred back to an following artist, chosen randomly or not.The original creator Add its Address on the "object" in hopes that later return him, filled with interventions of Mail Artists from different places and countries, giving him a great satisfaction to see the "object" with a new "life".
This group aims to be the dissemination place to the Add and Pass, and a ARCHIVE of it, however, giving preference to " Booklets",becouse it is here that the individuals have their own space to give wings to is imagination and technique.

Final Add-N-Pass started by Giesele Marsaglia;France..then on to Gi;no address.. then to the Haddock;Oregon..then on to me...finished!
just wanted to add that what I received was all black/white - a copy of the original. I can't usually work on scanned copies; to impersonal, but I didn't want to be a fuddy-duddy, so I thought I'd add one (1) thing...and then it grew into the whole page! I'm keeping my original and sending color copies to the participants...If anyone knows who Gi is, let me know so I can forward on to him/her...

About a week ago, I sent an Add and Pass zine that I made to DeVillo. After he adds something, let's hope it makes its way around to everyone!
