Mail to Mick Boyle - USA


Since my last envelope didn't arrive I guess it was lost. It contained one of the Alphabet Booklets for my new project (see linklist or http://alphabetbooklets.blogspot.com/). This time I send Mick a new one. Hopefully it will arrive. The project runs slowly. So far 4 booklets have been sent back. About 25 have been sent out. More to follow as the project unfolds.

Slopjet and Hiplijko for Guido and Nico



Two Fluxus Words on envelopes for Nico van hoorn and Guido Utermark. Because of the postal rates inside the Netherlands in Christmas-times one can send 50 gram envelopes for as little as 34 cents. A real mail-artist takes advantage of such an offer.....

Mail from Mariano Bellarosa - Italy



This wonderfull booklet with works by Mariano Bellarosa, Italy. Drawings for Mail-Art Volume-1 is the title. He has his typical style, a bit cartoonish but very detailed and humorisch. Lovely booklet to have in the TAM-Archive.

Mail from W.C. "Bill" Porter - USA


The letter included this nice note:


ans also mail-art project calls for children. They like mail-art too:



Explenation of the Local Post principle. And a request to join in.

Mail from the Temporary Museum of ART - Debby - Germany


Mail from Debby (Temporary Museum of Art) in which she sent the folowwing items:

Confirmation that my work has entered place #13. Love that number. Always brought me luck.

Mail-Art card from David Berube. On his own blog http://davidberube.blogspot.com/ he had already explained how he made the card. It is a wonderful object to receive. Very detailed work, and and I love the expression.

Back to Nico - Netherlands


This envelope arrived at Nico's place before. Now it reached Breda, but the postage isn't cancelled. ideal for sending it back again with new content. They call it recycling. Thanks KPN!
