Words Of Light MAIL ART: Artists' Studios/Workspaces, II. "An artist's life is a [pulsating] succession of creative moments".

Mail Art from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mail art is art which uses the postal system as a medium. The term mail art can refer to an individual message, the medium through which it is sent, and an artistic genre.
Mail artists typically exchange ephemera in the form of illustrated letters, zines, rubberstamped, decorated, or illustrated envelopes, artist trading cards, postcards, artistamps, faux postage, mail-interviews, naked mail, friendship books, decos, and three-dimensional objects.
An amorphous international mail art network, involving thousands of participants in over fifty countries, evolved between the 1950s and the 1990s It was influenced by other movements, including Dada and Fluxus.
One theme in mail art is that of commerce-free exchange; early mail art was, in part, a snub of gallery art, juried shows, and exclusivity in art. A saying in the mail art movement is "senders receive," meaning that one must not expect mail art to be sent to them unless they are also actively participating in the movement.

Quotes on Art

"Observe the light and consider its beauty." -- Leonardo da Vinci (Italian, 1452 - 1519)

"The richest gifts sometimes congregate in one sole person; beauty, grace and talent being united in such a manner that his every action is so divine as to leave all other men far behind him. This was seen and acknowledged in the case of Leonardo da Vinci in whom, to say nothing of his beauty of person, there was a grace beyond expression, and so rare a gift of talent and ability that to whatsoever subject he turned his attention, however difficult, he presently made himself absolute master of it." -- Giorgio Vasari

"For me, insanity is super sanity.The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity." ---Jean Dubuffet (French, 1901 - 1985)

"The demand for totally realistic art is an acknowledgment of mental laziness, a refusal of effort, and in the end a debasement of art and of the individual." --Alexander Liberman

"Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart go together."--John Ruskin
