Mike Dickau's Comments

PS...and thanks for the funny photos, too! Val

Hello again, Mike! Thanks for an incredible series of stamps that I've just received. I especially like the '50 details...'series and the 'Vittore Baroni + 8...' ones. It must have been hard choosing just 50 details, 'cos I imagine that you would have thousnds or millions of details to choose from. I'm currently reading about Magritte and Duchamps, and some of their stuff was definitely Fluxus flavoured, even though Fluxus hadn't come into existence then.

I'll be mailing you something back soon. In the meantime, thanks again, and here's wishing you a Happy Xmas and a very Merry New Year.

Best wishes, Val

Goede avond Mijnheer Dickau!

Hi!

Thanks for the latest Dickau Super Special Envelope -- soon to star in one of my Envelope art exhibitions.

I'm amazed that you always manage to come up with so  many fantastic 'goodies'.

I'll 'add and pass' as you request.

And I'll send you something back in the next few days...BUT don't get too excited about that, as it won't be anywhere near as good as your stuff.

I just ain't that clever... but I'm working on it.

Thanks again, and best wishes, Val

Mike, fast reply; like the Bananafish book cover...that could sell 'mail' in a mall

Mike,  have you sent a SECREt to the Tell Me Tell Me exhibition at MoCA in Korea?

More goodies safely received, Dear Mike, for which many thanks indeed. I'm intrigued by the 'Secret is Hidden' book, and hope you'll let me know when it's available. Who's the co-author -- M Greenfield?

There's something in the post for you, and I hope that it's not returned to sender-ed this time. Best wishes, Moby/Val

Bonjour! Its good news (for me) and bad news (for you) time.

My good news: I have got my first genuine US Post 'Return to Sender' (plus 'Not deliverable as addressed. Unable to forward) sticker on a card I posted to you on 13/08/2011. It was returned to me today.

Your bad news: you don't have the card. I do.

I'll try again next week.

Regards, Val

Bonjour le Biological Captain! Thanks for the latest envelope stuffed full of Dickaunian goodies: some great stuff and stamps in there that are all much appreciated; i especially liked the Baroni/Il Soppalco archive note. I'd really love to organise small scale 'Home Exhibitions' chez moi, but the little front room that opens directly on to the street isn't really suitable, and is full of books, ceramics, miscellaneous junk (and today my mountain bike). If i ever get round to organising an exhibition there, i'll definitely feature some of your mail art works, 'cos i have a good collection of them now;

I hope to be able to mail you something back at the weekend;

Bestest, JE Sweefoo

Received envelope with awe. So many terrific stamps and work. Your generosity inspired me to send a thank you with no expectations. I don't want to use any of the stamps. I want to horde them as the treasures that they are. I actually saw your work in J.Hinchcliff's book a long time ago and marveled at it. Again, I'm grateful.

Also will send on the 'add &send'.
