mail me art

Mail me art is een project dat wordt gerund door een britse boy genaamd Darren Di Lieto. Hier de info! Leuk project als je het mij vraagt...

Over the course of a year, the first Mail Me Art project brought together a vast collection of artistic work sent in the form of mail by both professional and amateur artists of all ages from across the world. A wide variety of media were used in an equally wide variety of styles and the work arrived on everything from postcards and envelopes to boxes and pieces of wood.

Contributions included work by internationally-renowned illustrators such as Dan May, Michael Slack, Jon Burgerman, Kristian Olson, Catalina Estrada and Jeff Miracola and in total there were in excess of 600 pieces of mail art submitted to the project.

Mail Me Art culminated in the publication of the book Mail Me Art: Going Postal with the World’s Best Illustrators and Designers and the exhibition, held in London during April 2009.

Mail Me Art 2 is now up and running. It is hoped that this will be as successful as the first project – if not more so!

Mail Me Art 2 will run for around 6-8 months, with a signed copy of the book plus an art-related prize given away each month to the artist of our favourite submission. We are planning to propose a follow up book, possibly called Mail Me More Art, and if we have half as many submissions as the first Mail Me Art project did we will run another exhibition. As with the first project, the artists will receive 70% of the sale value, less any gallery fees incurred. Click here to see photos from the Mail Me Art exhibition held in April 2009 in London.
