Frieder Speck's Blog – August 2011 Archive (14)

Svenja Wahl sent me a secret, and sorry I can´t keep it I have to show it! Sorry,   and Thank you very…

Angela Behrend sent me two of her stitched graffity collection project. Its always a exiting moment if I see one envelopes in my postbox, always a stitched part of art in relation of the conversation we have through written words. Thank you very much!…

A power monster came to me, yes Power is what I need! Thank you very much Alexandra Pharmakidis.

In the last days several great mailart pieces came to my Postbox. One special gem is the book from Cheryl Penn. It is not easy to blog cause you have to touch it, to smell it to capture all the dimensions of the work.

Thank you very very much Cheryl!…

Grüße aus der Hauptstadt an den Rand der Berge Ein Hauch von Berliner Luft, I smell it! Vielen Dank! Ein wenig Landluft hat sich auf den Weg gemacht!

great envelope

Is covering a card of a bigger work. Yes mail art is fixed to smaller pieces, but that is one thing I like, cause I couldn´t afford the time for big works and yea sometimes its a matter of workspace. But what I think its a kind of lovely communication and communication comes out of small words building an sentence or a story, and keeps space to answer,…

somehow Roland Halbritter found out that I was looking for the "rote Faden". And he sent me the "rote Faden" Its very importand to keep it, but something to send I found too.. Thank you very much, I sent you the big i today.…

I sent Angela something about Pina Bausch, a german choreograph and dancer, And I was  touched when I got her reply.

The stitched stamps I was not able to use yet, I have to keep them for a while like that. Thank you very…

When I got the envelope in my hand I felt that this is something special,

A booklet with some beautiful portraits …

Thank you very much I love this!

I´vo got my first brain cell. So because it´s my first, is it an invitation to put my Stamp on it and send it further to somebody else ? I like it, so many artists...

Roland sent me something and said if I don´t like it i could put iti n the waste. I sent him some things out of the bin and said he can look what i have in the waste but he would not find an invitation to a mailart project. then he sent me back my waste transformed like this. I never was happy like this before when someone sent me my things back! brilliant!…

received another great letter from Guido inside a collage. Sorry I have technical problems I can´t get the photos from the camera sometimes so I have only the envelope

I´m to slow with posting,  so in that time two pieces of Angela Behrend arrived, great stitchins with a beautiful Character of drawing.
