mailart @ kulturnation

Roland send me his artist booklet on the „ART CARRÉE“ project. Looks great and shows interesting variations. Thank you very much!

A MAIL ART PROJECT FOR THE 8TH OF MAY 2010 IN THE TOWN SCHWEINFURT (GERMANY). DIFFERENT SETS OF 9 PHOTOGRAPHS HAVE BEEN SENT OUT TO 14 ARTISTS FOR THEIR INDIVIDUAL MODIFICATIONS. AFTER IT THEY WILL SENT IT BACK TO ME. BOTH, THE PHOTO MOSAIC AS WELL AS THE MODIFICATION WILL BE SHOWN AT THE EXHIBITION. I WILL DOCUMENT IT HERE ON THIS BLOG. IN THE END THERE WILL BE A PLANED ARTISTBOOK ABOUT THE PROJECT.

Wohoooo, what a great card from Roland. Thanks a lot! Check his Bismarck-call.

(The card is not light blue, but shiny silver like a mirror)

Wooooohooo: One more mailart arrived: D.C. Spaulding send

a perfect envelope contained a funny card

and a stamp sheet:

Thanks a lot!

Today post from Roland „Bismarck“ Halbritter reached me. Next to the great decorated envelope

(funny: it seems that the post man couldn’t decide which stamp to stamp – so they didn’t stamp none)

I found a nice artistbooklet with multiples inside:

Thank you so much!

A big „Thank you“ goes out to Josephine!

Wilma sent me a real load of beautiful things – thanks a lot!

A nice objet trouvé from a night out.

A nice 3-D-piece, naming the „Les-Coques-Marine“-posse 🙂

Why do I have to think „Northern Lights“, looking at this wonderful card?

Wow! The Canadians have beautiful stamps!

Something that I really like on mail art: It opens the eyes for daily beauty. Like this beautiful beer coaster that Wilma sent me. Seeing it on the counter, under a glas: May be I would not even recognize it. But sending it as a postcard, there is a focus put on this beer coaster. And makes me think on how does Amber, „veritas vincit“ and a deer may fit together. It’s a bit duchampic 🙂 Really great!

This gorgeous from Wilma reached me some day ago.

Thank you so much! And now I wonder: Is the sea the sea in winter?

Oooooh! Amazing. A very interesting and inspiring card from Charlotte! Thanks a lot.

Wow, look at this! So beautiful!

Reminds me on the fantastic silhouette artist Lotte Reininger. And I have to ask Wilma how she makes these embossed lines.
