Mail art

White mail art postcard, created by Michael Fox, featuring handwritten messages in green and black ink, drawings, and sender/recipient details exchanged between Michael and Maximilian Fox in Hildesheim, Germany, and Luce Fierens of the Youth & Mail Art Project in Belgium. The first image shows a black silhouette of a fox walking through grass at the bottom, with simple line drawings of envelopes and hanging illustrated panels above, including one labeled “KAT-SEND-TER.” Handwritten text along the edges includes “Mail-Art on the road…….” and “FOX-ART-FOX, Rostocker-Strasse 3, D-3200 Hildesheim / Germany,” along with a note addressed to Luce Fierens. The second image contains the sender’s handwriting on the left—“Michael Fox, Rostocker Str. 3, D-3200 Hildesheim, Germany”—accompanied by similar small sketches of envelopes and the “KAT-SENDTER” panel. Additional notes include: “If possible more next time! Ciao! Michael” and the name “Maximilian.” The right side lists the recipient’s address and features a German postage stamp and cancel mark from Hildesheim, alongside a printed graphic labeled “ABF 92,” advertising an exhibition held 15–23 February at the Hannover Messegelände. Submitted as part of the Youth and Mail Art Project. Mail art recipient: Luce Fierens.
