Mail art by Cor Reijn (Zaandam, Netherlands)

 

November 20, 2018 - Cor Reijn kindly sent me a scrap of a yogurt box all the way from the Netherlands. Does he just work with “found” material or does he know of my proud association with Trashpo and DKult? I do not believe he is an IUOMA member, but he does appear to be an active mail artist. I am sure he will understand I claim this work as Trashpo primarily for thematic reasons at the M-L blog.

 

Around these parts, we revere Ruud Janssen. He is the first artist to come to mind for many of us when we think of the Netherlands. Fact is, however, some very fine mail art is produced in the Netherlands by numerous artists. I see it online and have been very fortunate to receive original works as well. So deepest thanks to Cor Reijn! Don’t be a stranger. And thanks for the Trashpo!
