Marina Salmaso, Copenhagen, Denmark


I like the  way Marina took a publicity card for a bicycle company Mustang, with model named Dagmar, and altered the wheels. Cleverly using postage stamps, she creates a sense of movement. I really like this.

This is the first Mail Art from Denmark. I was happy to see the postmark as we were in Copenhagen, many years ago on our honeymoon. We enjoyed the city very much. We drove to Helsingor and stopped at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. We saw a Magritte exhibit there. Ah, Memories.

Thanks, Marina for the Mail Art and the memories.

Bob Isenberg, Camp Lutherlyn, Pennsylvania, USA



This print is quite interesting. I like the way the bicycle appears on the background and the use of stamps for the text. I think it's a monoprint, but maybe Bob can comment on this and tell about his technique.

Thanks for sending, Bob

Xavier, Camp Lutherlyn, Pennsylvania, USA

The art teacher at a summer camp, sent me a message that she was sending me Mail Art from her art campers.
How fun!
Here's one from Xavier that looks like it was done by rolling something on the paper to created the look of bicycle tires rolling along. How's this for action and the thrill of the race!
Thanks, Xavier.
