Some images from Goin' Postal, a fabulous show of mail art curated by Miles Collyer. On view at Art Metropole until November 24th. Thanks for the pictures, Miles!
Above: wooden envelope/postcards sent to Art Metropole anonymously by Lucy Pullen and her class.
Below: images from Kevin Immanuel's project, The Foucault Letters (2001 & 2007) in which he purchased memberships to Canadian galleries under the name Michel Foucault.
Below: a selection of mail sent between Marc Bell, Jason MacLean and Terry Piercey (with artists' labels).
The wooden envelopes and postcards are brilliant.
Beautiful work.
Also, check out Joseph Beuys postcard multiples (edition of 600)
'Wood Postcard' silkscreen on pine, 10.5 x 15 x 3.3 cm (1974)
I'm a fan of "Marc is Stupid" myself.
Great to find this post and, especially, that first image of wooden envelopes and postcards. FYI, have used it in my latest post: https://postcardcabobble.wordpress.com/2015/10/03/timberrrr/
