Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Description An account of the resource Mail art piece, designed by Anna Boschi, consisting of a color photograph with black writing on the back with stickers, rubber stamp ink, and Italian postage stamps. In the first image, a large, light-colored fabric lies spread out on a floor, partially folded near the edges. Two circular stencil designs are visible on the surface, outlined in black spray paint with faint red markings extending from them. Inside the top circle, the text reads “HOPE,” and in the lower circle, “ART.” Red paint drips and streaks appear between the circles, suggesting a deliberate connection in the design. The fabric is positioned in front of a dark background with a faint light source coming from the left. The second image is a handwritten postcard addressed to John Bennet, Lunar Biscuit Prods, 437 Leland Ave., Columbus, Ohio 43214, U.S.A. It has three Italian stamps—one valued at 200 lire depicting Castello di Cerro al Volturno and two valued at 500 lire each showing Castello di Rovereto. A blue “PER VIA AEREA / PAR AVION” airmail label is affixed near the center. The sender’s information on the left reads “ANNA BOSCHI, Via Alberghini 23-25, 40138 BOLOGNA.” The message, written diagonally across the card, says in part, “Thank you very much for your fine participation to the ‘Bottle Project.’ Best wishes and good work.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

It’s hot here – hottest May for 100 years!” The right sheet contains the same printed address and includes additional printed text in pink reading “HOME OF THE BIGGEST RUBBER STAMP IN THE WORLD,” and a green-stamped date “18 JAN 1990.” Mail art recipient: John M.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Description An account of the resource Two-sided mail art piece composed of a timecard decorated with multi-color paint on the front. The back is decorated with paint, rubber stamp ink and affixed with U.S. postage stamps. The first two images show the front and back of a single postcard created from an IBM punch card. The front features a visually striking abstract artwork: a mix of vivid paint strokes layered across the pre-printed numbers and coding grid of the punch card. The paint’s vibrant reds, blues, and greens transform the utilitarian object into a colorful piece of mail art, typical of the experimental correspondence art movement of the late 20th century. The back reveals the postcard’s functional side, turning the painted punch card into a personal communication. It bears the sender’s stamped address from San Antonio, Texas, and a postmark from July 1982. The handwritten note from Gene Elder to Daniel Graham thanks the recipient for a letter, combining art and casual correspondence. This hybrid of technological artifact, artwork, and personal note reflects the creative reuse of computer-era materials in mail art culture. Mail art recipient: Daniel Mark Graham.

Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art.

Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Description An account of the resource Mail art piece, created by Sticker Dude, consisting of a sheet of black and white artist stamps, with printed text and a large black-and-white photographic image of Ray Johnson at the top and multiple stamp-like designs arranged in rows beneath it. The top photograph shows a person, Ray Johnson, standing with his back turned, wearing a jacket with a studded pattern, facing a wall and a striped pole. To the right of the photograph is printed text: “[Mail Art] has no history, only a present, which was a part, of course, on present as now, and present as gift. A pun on my own way of giving information and objects or whatever, in letter form. —Ray Johnson.” Below the photograph is a grid of repeated monochrome stamp designs labeled “U.S. POSTAL ART” with a small portrait of the same person and the text “RAY JOHNSON” printed at the bottom of each stamp. Additional small text in the lower right reads “Design & production by Derryn Greenberg Press, NYC 2006 © Ray Johnson,” along with “Gummed Paper.” Mail art recipient: Mike Basinski.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Envelopes Extent The size or duration of the resource. 10 x 23 cm. Description An account of the resource Two-sided envelope submitted as part of the Millenium Mail Art Project. Front and back decorated with cardboard, stickers, thread and found objects. U.S. postage stamps affixed. The front features layered paper fragments, typed text strips, barcodes, a small cut-out window, postal cancellations, and colorful stamps—including a Margaret Mitchell stamp and a “19th Amendment 1920” stamp—alongside a whimsical UFO sticker. The address is printed on a white label, accompanied by rubber-stamped text reading “2000 Anno Mirabilis.” The surface shows mixed textures from torn paper, tape, staples, ink smudges, and hand-stamped marks. The reverse side continues the assemblage theme with light blue paper, scattered magenta postal ink, a bold green “10” sticker, “Sealed For Your Protection” text, and additional barcodes. A small dark rectangular print appears mounted on part of the envelope, adding a mysterious, fingerprint-like element. Inside, the object contains a folded, printed sheet listing past mail art calls from the mid-1990s. The page resembles a newsletter: columns of names, project titles, and locations are arranged in monospaced type, emphasizing the archival, bureaucratic quality of mail art networks. Two additional collage panels incorporate anatomical illustrations printed in black on white paper—faces, organs, cross-sections, and labeled diagrams—paired with cardboard and mounted photographic slides. Each slide contains a dark smudged mark resembling a partial print or abstract form, adding an enigmatic, almost forensic tone. Tape and uneven paper edges give the panels a handmade, tactile quality. Mail art recipient: Sticker Dude.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Description An account of the resource Piece consists of a brown printed mailing envelope decorated with rubber stamps and stickers and affixed with British postage stamps. It contains two glossy magazine pages each decorated with rubber stamps. This mail art piece unfolds as a satirical, collage-like publication that mimics instructional manuals, children’s guides, and popular magazines while steadily dissolving into absurdity. Across the four sections, Victorian-era child-rearing illustrations, faux scientific reports, hand-drawn annotations, stamps, and pseudo-advertisements are recombined with surreal humor—leeks become instruments of ancient craft, power transmission, sculpture, and communication; education slips into parody; authority is undercut by playful nonsense. The work uses the visual language of official print culture (manuals, lessons, diagrams, and advertisements) to critique systems of knowledge, progress, and seriousness, transforming the mail format into a fragmented, ironic narrative that rewards close reading and visual wandering.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.

Title A name given to the resource Mail Art Description An account of the resource Participatory, democratic, personal and expressive, as a form of artwork, Mail Art is sent, given or exchanged via the postal service. A work of artwork becomes Mail Art once it is dispatched, disappearing forever from the artist's hands. Mail Artists form networks and faithfully participate in them by pouring a steady stream of unique art objects into the quotidian postal system. Mail Artists also regularly call for topical or thematic Mail Art for exhibition. Mail Art forms a community of like minded artists. Each piece of Mail Art is unique and often a collage that might aggressively engage social, artistic, and hot topic political issues or might harvest images from pop culture. All forms of material and artistic techniques come into play. Mail Art explores the material nature of language. Rubber stamps, stickers, paint and other material are frequently combined in Mail Art collage. After artistic treatment, items such as common post cards to plastic bottles enter into the Mail Art network. Ray Johnson is credited as the founder of contemporary Mail Art. In the late 1950s, he founded the New York Correspondence School, and the New York Correspondence School bunny is an image frequently collaged into works of Mail Art.
