INTERNATIONAL MAIL ART PROJECT
(MAIL ART)

1962-2012 – 50 YEARS of MAIL ART
in homage to RAY JOHNSON,
from the NEW YORK CORRESPONDANCE SCHOOL OF ART

From this lucky intuition of the american artists Edward M. Plunkett and Ray Johnson, that gave life to the international network more frequented of the art history (the MAIL ART), fifty years passed.
Relations, exchanges, meetings, interventions, projects etc. are alternate always in a climate of active and continuous participation, overcoming any political and ideological barrier.
This “dance” of artistic correspondence involved and still involves all the Nations. Now, these
are invited to celebrate together this important anniversary, sending a sign of renewed adherence, love and gratitude to a “School” that had been in position to join artists of all the world, in a kind of “artistic collective story”, testimony of “to make art” through the sharing, the gift and the absolute freedom.
