Mail from Vittore Baroni in 1983

 

 

Cavellini stickers

Cavellini sent me a large folder with things in 1984, here are the stickers he included. The advertised exhibit is now only a few years away.

 

Contract

Finally, after almost a year of negotiations and travelling back and forth, this contract was signed today! Now I just have to wait for the geeart to arrive.

This is not the Ray Johnson we are looking for.

Postcard from Bifidus Jones

Some time ago I received another beautiful postcard from Bifidus Jones, a wonderful piece of art, just look at it.

 

 

Greek toilet paper

I am submitting work to an Australian magazine called WIPE, where all art should be on sheets of toilet paper. I need to find a strong paper for this and today I bought four different brands of Greek toilet paper rolls in my local grocery store.

Sofia in the store looked at my goods and smiled and then laughed.
I wonder what she was thinking. Then she said:
- Your family has left now?
- Yes, yes I am here by myself on the island, I said.
She laughed again, and still I wonder what she was thinking.

Her English is not perfect and my Greek is bad so I refrained from trying to explain what I was going to use the paper for.

It's not easy to explain anyway...

 

Greek door - rubber stamp

I made my first Greek rubber stamp, an image of the blue door to our house here on the island. Made with my usual rubber stamp material and with ink and a stamp pad from Dionysios' shop in the port.

 

from Ross Priddle

I received my first Mail Art letter to my Hydra PO Box, thanks Ross!

 

Trumpet Player

I made a new rubber stamp and I based it on an image of Miles Davis from 1971, a favorite period of his music.

 

Letter sent to a client

 

Rubber stamps

I made my first rubber stamps...

 

 

 

Sent to Bifidus Jones

I sent this to Bifidus Jones in the US, in reply to the incredibly beautiful postcard he sent me. My drawing is titled "Waiting for the Postman". You know the feeling?

 

 

24 hour zine

A 24 hour mail art call from Jennifer Zoellner who assembled this zine with all contributors. Art from Reed Altemus, Rain Rien, Andrew Topel, Ross Priddle, Jennifer Zoellner, myself and at least fifteen others.

 

 

I sent this to Maura Di Giulio for the Mail Art exhibition "No Oil in Abruzzio" in Italy.

 

 

Mail Art from Demian

This is also Mail Art, indeed.

An old friend of mine (and a client) sent me his tax papers and addressed the letter to Henry "The Master" Denander. Very stylish. Art.

 

Yesterday I received this really beautiful postcard from Bifidus Jones in St Paul, MN. I just love it.
