Hello Henning Sir, I will be in Frankfurt soon. How can I meet you there? Senior Bangladeshi artist Professor Samarjit Roy Choudhury will be with me. He wants to meet you. Namasteh

How are you mydear friend...! Do you remember Essen when we knew us...! I was working with Boris Nieslony at the2nd. Biennial of Tesaloniki, Greece. The best for you and your projects...Fraternal greetings,

Can I quote you on mail art in my upcoming mail art zine for the show Chromatophore?? You so elegantly wrote about mail art. Would love a piece from you also. Think about it... but not too long because the show is in August!

Hi well the mail art show accepts any artwork. THe theme is Chromatophore which is a cell that changes colors--like in the octopus, chameleon, cuttlefish, squid, and even some bacteria cells. I just wanted to quote what you in your portion, "Why I am involved in mail art" above. It would be nice to include it in my program/zine for the show. I would like an image of yours to include also. You could send me a piece of mail art for the show or email me something for the program/zine. Or both. My email is weeklyhoot@gmail.com and the address is Jennifer Zoellner, 665 Jasmine Way South, Saint Petersburg, FL 33705 USA. Thank you.

Antoni Tàpies (born in Barcelona, December 13, 1923) is a Spanish Catalan painter. He is one of the famous artists of European abstract expressionism. After studying law for 3 years, he devoted himself from 1943 onwards only to his painting. He is perhaps the best-known Catalan artist to emerge in the period since the Second World War.

In 1950 he held his first solo exhibition, at Galeries Laietanes, Barcelona. In the early 50s he lived in Paris, to where he has often returned. Both in Europe and beyond, the highly influential French critic and curator Michel Tapié (no relation, despite the similar name) enthusiastically promoted the work of Antoni Tàpies.

In 1948, Tàpies helped co-found the first Post-War Movement in Spain known as Dau-al-Set which was connected to the Surrealist and Dadaist Movements. The main leader and founder of Dau-al-Set was the poet Joan Brossa. The movement also had a publication of the same name, Dau-al-Set. Tàpies started as a surrealist painter, his early works were influenced by Paul Klee and Joan Miró; but soon become an abstract expressionist, working in a style known as "Arte Povera", in which non artistic materials are incorporated into the paintings. In 1953 he began working in mixed media; this is considered his most original contribution to art. One of the first to create serious art in this way, he added clay and marble dust to his paint and used waste paper, string, and rags (Grey and Green Painting, Tate Gallery, London, 1957).

His international reputation was well established by the end of the 50s. From the late 50's to early 60's, Tàpies worked with Enrique Tábara, Antonio Saura, Manolo Millares and many other Spanish Informalist artists. From about 1970 (influenced by Pop art) he began incorporating more substantial objects into his paintings, such as parts of furniture. Tàpies's ideas have had worldwide influence on art, especially in the realms paintings, sculpture, etchings and lithography. Examples of his work are found in numerous major international collections.

Indeed a great pleasure and joy to meet You here, my dear friend!

My Experience with Art (an uncensored autobiography by an unknown art-lover) by Rafique Sulayman coming soon...
From Bangladesh art to Minden, from Malaysia to Thessaloniki...everything and you are there. Greetings to you and Mme. Angela. Ciao...

Thanks Henning ji and Angela ji. This is all about my art journey of 18 long years as curator, critic, reporter and networking. 'My Experience with Art' came from the autobiography of Mahatma Gandhi's 'My Experience with Truth'. And I took a subtitle : an uncensored autobiography of an unknown art lover. It means I am still in a learning process. You at the age of 72, me at the age of 41. we are all still learning the chiaroscuro of life (art).

LIMITE, SCAMBIO, SEGNO
LIMIT, EXCHANGE, SIGN
A tribute for the city of Portogruaro through a project involving art through mail. The keywords chosen as the theme are the motif of its foundation, joined in a common flow.

Limit
border between earth and water,
the river harbor and the trade routes,
the channels and the gardens of the palaces,
a constant reference to a change in system, material and colour.

Exchange
not only of goods but also of colours and scents,
artistic and architectural influences,
mutual knowledge, therefore culture.

Sign
a condition of consent expressed in gesture, the conclusion of an agreement,
a trace superimposed on many others:
whose meaning is beyond the sum of the parts.

Project by Rizoo Group, Tiziana Baracchi and Pro Loco di Portogruaro
Format and dimension of work:
square of maximum size 21 X 21 cm
No e-mail

No returns, no jury, no fee, no sales

Hi Henning,

A face from the past trying to reach you. Would love to re-establish contact. Lots to catch up on. I advised my daughter (age 19) to contact you as a great first mail art contact, but nothing happened. Could be she didn't have the proper address. In any case, hope to hear from you.
