Profile Information:
- Mail-Artist since:
- 1980
- My Website (without http://):

- Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
- Each work of art is a child of his age and a mirror of our feelings.
Each artistic movement shapes a cultural aspect and an era that is impossible to be repeated, except for evolved only, when it is characterized by the essential internal necessity.
In our age that art function in specific borders, in a nutshell surface and with almost industrially partitions, the mail art’s movement came like fresh breeze.
It is open, expressively informative, modern, with new ideas, and simultaneously intensely personal.
It’s main interest is the internal need of a person to express himself creatively, and communicate with his colleagues. It has the big challenge for the artist to work simultaneously with thousand of artists in the world. I wish that, this open channel for the world artistic communication that has already been embraced, will root in our country and take the forms that proceed with the Greek sensitivity and expression.

I have seen your wonderful videos of the mail art exhibition "Human - Colours - Music" in Thessaloniki and am writing to ask you a very big favour.
I sent a contribution and am registered as Number 239 - Carolien Van Der Gaag – Netherlands.
My contribution was a tribute to a very dear friend, Huda Sosebee, who passed away from leukemia in July 2009.
She was a wonderful woman. Here is the story of her life: http://www.pcrf.net/?p=2353
My question to you is: Would you please be so kind to take a photo of my entry hanging at the exhibition so that I can send it to Huda's husband and daughters?
I would be very, very thankful.
My very best wishes,
Carolien van der Gaag
hello dear thomai i had a mail from carolien but i cant to come again in these days in salonikiso please do it for this
