Phone Box - FRANCE

PHONE BOX INTERNATIONAL MAIL ART EXHIBITION

Please participate in an International Mail Art Exhibition I am organising in June on the themes of Phones, Post Boxes or anything to do with telecommunications.

My friends Eddy & Annette Duprey recently bought an old British telephone box and moved it -- at great expense and effort -- from the South of Wales to the South of France. And now this iconic traditional red phone box stands in somewhat isolated splendor in their garden.

To celebrate The Box's official opening on 14 June, 2013, I'm organising a Mail art Exhibition, as part of IUOMA's 25th Anniversary celebrations. Works received will be placed on and in the phone box.

Details of the Exhibition are as follows:

THEME: Phones, Phone Boxes, or anything to do with Telecommunications

DATE: 14 June, 2013. (It's a small phone box...and a small exhibition!)

SIZE: Anything -- but postcards preferred

TECHNIQUE: Free. Anything goes -- drawings, paintings, collages, assemblages...it's up to you (as long as they will fit in or on the Box).

VENUE: The British Telephone Box by the swimming pool, Chez Duprey, 9 Rue Jacques Prévert Emeraude, Sigean, France

DEADLINE: 10 June, 2013

CONDITIONS: No prizes, no jury, no returns, etc

PLEASE SEND YOUR MAIL ART TO:
Val Herman, 1 Rue de la Vieille Fontaine, F-11130 Sigean, France.

Making connections worldwide

Ah, the wonders of Wikipedia! While listening to Eno, and reading the Wikipedia article on him, I somehow found myself reading about Fluxus and mail art, with a side trip to Anna May Wong. My undestanding of mail art is that, among other things, it provides connections between its participants, who may never meet, but learn to communicate and appreciate each other through their mail art. What led me to address the mail art community in this regard is the posting from Stefanie about messages in bottles she requested. My son is very fascinated with the idea of messages in bottles and how friendships can develop between people so far removed. Right now, the idea of "far removed," is also part of his fascination. He seems to prefer remote contact with his friends rather than face-to-face. He meets fellow gamers at school, then would rather chat with them over skype while playing Minecraft or Terrestria, than interact in live space. I request the mail art community to send age-appropriate mail art to my son Nicholas, age 11, in the themes of connections and message-in-a-bottle.
