2008-07-17T09:54:00.004+02:00

Because I am for a longer period abroad, my Mail-Art in the P.O. Box in Breda will pile up for more then a month. So if you send me something, expext it to be visible here after quite some time. I will document the pile as I find it and will publish it here. For the coming weeks I will still post here from the places where I am.

Pro-Active Mail-Art

2008-06-30T19:30:00.003+02:00

Well, here is a new thing in Mail-Art. I have spotted the digital image of a letter that still has to arrive here in Breda. It is sent to me by Nico van Hoorn. A reaction is already sent today so my answer even gets to Nijmegen before Nico's mail arrives here. Pro-Active Mail-Art: Send you mail-art answer even before your mail-art from someone else has arrived....

Mail Art Archives

2008-06-29T13:58:00.003+02:00

An article about mail-Art archives I wrote back in the 90-ies. It dealt with how people then were building up their mail-art archives. Nowadays we are 20 years further. Some mail-artists have donated (or sold) their collections to archives, but some collections have vanished. It always is an interesting topic. Maybe should explore this a bit more in the near future.

The postal Workers and Joel Cohen himself will probably have problems reading all the letters in these colourfull settings. The envelope and letter start their journey now...

Thoughts on Mail-Art

2008-06-29T09:20:00.002+02:00

A hard-copy version of the first 10 thoughts I wrote for the Internet. The online version is still available at: http://www.iuoma.org/overview.html and a direct access to all the texts you can find though: http://www.iuoma.org/secret_9.html. All the texts are hyperlinked, so you can jump from one text to another. Realize that the texts are old ones. They are my views from back then.
