=mail art received=



::from Jon Foster, Winston-Salem, NC::

Returning home yesterday from an extended road trip to Florida, I found several pieces of mail-art waiting for me, including this surprise package from Jon Foster: a treasure-box of wonderful ephemera, including cards, buttons, stamps, & stickers. The box and it's contents taken together is a piece of art in itself—a kind of time-capsule like the ones we recently saw in the Warhol museum. I'm enjoying just taking the stuff out of the box and spreading it out on the studio floor, examining the contents a piece at a time and in their always-changing random combinations. Something new seems to emerge every time.

Thank you Jon for this box of magic!
