The FLUX:US Project 2.0 2023 – Mail Art – CUTandTEAR

The FLUX:US Project 2.0 2023 – Mail Art – CUTandTEAR

Per definition:
Mail art, also known as postal art and correspondence art, is an artistic movement centered on sending small-scale works through the postal service. It initially developed out of what eventually became Ray Johnsons New York Correspondence School and the Fluxus movements of the 1960s, though it has since developed into a global movement that continues to the present.

This type of art had already spread rapidly in the DADA era. Mostly from artist to artist, this form of participation was direct, simple and barrier-free: no costs, no curators, no intermediaries.
Thus, Mail Art was also a social sculpture in the sense of Beuys, even if it wasnt called that yet. The artist in association with the others was author, viewer, mediator, collector at the same time. Many famous artists after 1910 were active in Mail Art.

This work is a cut-out of submissions from artists around the world. The MUARCO project as an interactive participatory social sculpture takes up the momentum of the fresh contemporary international art scene and uses ARTSURPRISE to increase the number of creative Mail Art artists.

We are counting on YOU! Create a sheet of paper in DINA7 and make a collage or a drawing. You are free to choose the topic. Overpainting with watercolors, tempera or varnish or pens is also possible. Sign your work on the back. Scan it in and send a high-resolution JPG (300dpi) to office / at / artsurprise.eu with the subject FLUXUS 2.0 and your (artist) name. By sending it you allow us to digitally process and document your work on www.artsurprise.eu.

Leave your postal address on the back of the envelope (important)! Send your original to the artist (address on the envelope). With a little luck you will get an answer later. If you want to get to know the international world of mail art, sign in at IUOMA, the international network of mail art artists.

About the artist of this work in your hands:
„From time to time I allow myself to say the following when the occasion arises: There are teachers who paint and painters who teach. The second stay true to themselves. CUTandTEAR is a teaching painter and her humorous, at times whimsical, work is a real delight. She safely uses the scissors in her collages and combines them with a lot of great feeling for the detail. She rightly carries the seal DADA COW 2023…! (Juan Petry, Curator).“
