Linda French

Nice to be friends Linda, we should exchange soon.

Pensa Linda che è tutto reale! ho scattato la foto nella toilette del museo MAXXI di Roma ... è una installazione-toilette di un artista... un abbraccio , bruno

é un gioco di specchi... ;)

Nothing yet :D

Awesome! :D

ecco la tua opera riciclata virtualmente... un abbraccio . bruno

L'ho riciclata solo virtualmente la Tua Opera la tengo cos' senza interventi ! bruno

That wasn't much, actually. The MinXus narrative has been growing collectively for two or three years and is hopelessly complicated and convoluted.

It's only a matter of semantics, but around here those little books you see are called "boekies." I think Cheryl Penn in South Africa started that; "boekie" is Afrikaans, I think. They are artists books, usually one of a kind and handmade - from the book arts field. Occasionally, they're called TLPs (Tacky Little Pamphlets), which is a m-a term going back to the 70s. Supposedly a guy named Wild Billy Haddock invented the TLP. Sometimes the books are collaborative.

Yay! And you'll get something else that was sent this week. hmmm. I think I remember what it was that I sent. 'cats observing the bushes' or 'moonlight garden with cats'. Or something like that. I did those with stamps that I made, 2 versions. Glad it came.   Have a great weekend.  --Linda

Your beautiful collage arrived today, thanks. It will be shown in the next Front Door gallery exhibition in January, I shalllet you know when it is up.

"Delight"ful collage arrived here, Linda!

Thank you so much!

Hello, Linda. Thank you very much for your friendship. I'll send you Mail Art soon.

Great! Glad it arrived! :D

Thanks, Linda...me thinks a bit of GREEK "red" warmth

is headed your way in chilly Minnesota :-) Watch your mil box!

(Edmund Hippo sent out a bunch :-)

Io divento un bersaglio perchè critico l'arte delle gallerie commerciali... un abbraccio , bruno

 Your holy card is super Linda, i will photograph it over colour paper so the holes show. The Front Door Gallery is in the front of my house, the address where you sent your card. At least  it was still there last time I looked but no doubt  it will eventually be bought by the Guggenheim Museum of Art , unless the whole house is declared a Historic Monument first.

Forgot to tell you that I am behind in my hanging, with all the festive chaos, and the next show will be mid January. As soon as it is up I will post photos and let you know. Meanwhile  have a look in

Glad that the Holiday greetings are arriving in the USA :-)

Edmund Hippo is happy , too:

Grazie Linda! da anni ormai faccio degli interventi di minimal land art ... un fraterno abbraccio , bruno

Anche io ho lavorato a fare striscie gialle per le strade ... e una volta si è rotta la macchina e ha spruzzato giallo per tutta la strada... una lunga macchia gialla informe ...

Ciao Linda! è arrivata una cartolina... credo sia la tua... la fotografo con interventi poi la posto qui... buon natale. bruno ;)

è questa ... ma elaborata da me con altre immagini compreso il mio viso ... la riconosci lo stesso? .... bruno ;)

Hai ragione Linda ! è un po' inquietante! ma io lavoro a livello inconscio...senza troppo ragionare: in questa immagine cito la pittura ... ma in modo un po' ironico e anche con un po' di sofferenza... è un lavoro ambiguo come quasi tutta la mia arte ...misterioso ... un abbraccio , bruno

Thank you! Happy holidays! :)

sono io da ragazzino... ora non sono più così bello ;)

Thanks a lot for the card!! :D

But why avoid it? This was a Good Hair Day.

(The shampoo is called 'Orange Delight' -- hang on a minute.... the little jars of pudding I bought the other day are called 'Orange Delight'. Perhaps that's why the shampoo didn't taste so good)

I don't know, as I've never tried gelli printing.
But I do know that with glass prints you can never get two the same -- each one is unique, and it's fun and a challenge to see what you're gonna get

(For some of my glass print efforts, see the 'Glass Print' part of www.val-herman-art.eu where there are lots. Here's a sample

end of commercial. And now, back to the Strudio)

sono frammenti del mio corpo fotofrafati sul momento ... quindi è come se davvero facessi una performance per iuoma... sì ci sono pezzi di nudo ... ma credo non siano scandalosi... ;) ---

invece tu Linda ... non mostri mai nemmeno il tuo viso! come mai? a me sembra bello mostrare il proprio viso con chi si dialoga... no?  un abbraccio fraterno . bruno

Bravissima! Linda!!! hai capito lo spirito ...le intenzioni delle mie "webperformance" donarmi simbolicamente usando immagini del mio corpo ... W LA PERFORMANCE ART !

Ciao Linda! l'altra faccia è del grandissimo Paul Klee!!! uno dei miei primi maestri spirituali ... un abbraccio , bruno :)

Good morning, Linda.  I'm excited to receive your mail kit and make something great with it. Thanks for your cool project and letting me participate. :) :)  -EJ

Yeah, I got you.  It'll be an interesting challenge for me to figure out something to do with things I may not otherwise work with.  I'm looking forward to seeing what you put together in a kit...and messing around with it all.  

Ciao Linda! può darsi che qualche immagine dei cataloghi appaia ... ma non nascono per andare in rete ma per essere donati a mano  agli amici... un abbraccio  bruno ;)

A sweet IUOMA Care Package from Linda!

Hi Linda,

Yes! I would like a kit.  What is your idea: to use only the materials you supply, or can other items be added?

Kathryn Corbett

Thank you for the wonderful yellow fish card.The colours and textures work beautifully,and so does the woven paper on the other side!
