This arrived in the mail a few days ago - Oh dear. It's quite beat-up.
There's no postage stamp. I"m assuming it got lost along the way. There is a faint cancellation on the reverse and looks like it's 11 May 2015. Could it really have been on it's way that long?
Inside was a slightly bent postcard.
There was an explanation of the technique used and a couple of bicycle images.
The technique is interesting and I smiled at the caption.
Thanks for the entry, Antonio, and perhaps you can let us know when this started it's journey.

On the front, the wheels of the illustrated bicycle are actual buttons, mother of pearl, I think. They made it through the postal systems of both countries without a problem.
"Cycling in the fantasy" is what I think it says.
Thanks, Elisa.

Serse Luigetti, Perugia, Italy
. Whether it's the juxtaposition of disparate images or repetition, Serse Luigetti's work is always interesting.

Interesting bicycle - no spokes! Can it be real? I think it is.
Silvano Pertone gives us a bit of a puzzle?
Thanks for submitting, Silvano.

Pietro Romano Matarrese, Bari, Italy

It's a collage of the four hand cut circular shapes and colored with lemon juice.
It arrived with a CD of Mr. Matarrese's original guitar compositions. The album is entitled UPHO unidentified playing high object. I'm hoping that one of the venue's will be able to play it at some point during the exhibit.
Thank you so much for your entry and your music.
