I got a terrific signed and numbered book by Henry. The kind of book that makes the heart gallop and the mind sing knowing that the world is right again as long as you're holding this book in your hands:

Henry had an extended stay in Greece where there were many cats in the area where he lived. The cats all had names too, Henry says, names like Fatso, Strontzo, Machog,…

Thanks, Stan!

The opening was a success. We had approximately 1,223 visitors, of which 5 signed the guest book. They had this to say about David's latest…

Nancy's work was some of the first I noticed when I joined iuoma. As I said to her long ago, something about her particular creative voice has a rather untoward sonority for me... Color often speaks to me more eloquently than any other element of the visual, and her mastery...

it simply takes my breath away..... Her work speaks much more than colour to me of…

HERE IS A VIEW OF MY PART OF THE SHOW (16 PRINTS):

wonderful, intriguing envelope and art work.I love it and enjoyed the French text on reverse, good idea using a page from a book - page headed DE CAUMONT ABECEDAIRE D' ARCHEOLOGIE  (!)

A great surprise for me- thank you for thinking of me.

I have received something good but with out name or address I can make out.  The envelope says 'ART IS FOR EVERY ONE'.

  Inside :  all kinds of graphics and  stamps in array with words DKA POSI as part of the design. Enjoyable and intriguing. 

 On the back it says 'YOU ARE AN ARTIST'

WHOEVER you are many thanks !"

A beautiful card from Carina made my heart skip a beat. It is a photo transfer - I am still mystified as to how this is done - and a wonderful juxtaposition of what looks like a Chinese factory worker making what - orange rugs? opposed to a bunch of white men in suits in what could be courtroom. They are looking at something or somebody outside the frame. I…

Two portrait stampings in an envelope from "E".

Are they both our dear friend in Utopia??? One without....one with ...a beard:

Wonderful effect of "E" on the classical column capital motif...it's an…

Abstract in many ways.  A small painting which was a big hit here in Paris, and the abstract coding of an artist.  So if Suus is short for Susanne, and Mokum is a nickname for Amsterdam then ... I forgot where I was going with this.

Just enjoy what you see.

Thank you…

Somewhere I read a comment by Diane Keys that she does not like still lives with flowers and fruits and finds them boring. So when I received Diane's minimalistic postcard I thought of a special surprise. I went out and bought the ingredience to arrange a little still life especially for her. It is loaded with mail art related symbolism, such as BANANAS and TANGERINES.…

The last in a series of Mail Art received from Ana before she left Paris.  Very deep meaning of a complete artist.

Thank you Ana, good luck and keep creating.
