Eternal Network : A Mail-Art Anthology

description

"Eternal Network is the first university press publication to explore the historical roots, aesthetics, and new directions of contemporary mail art in essays by prominent, international mail art networkers from five continents. This forty-chapter illustrated book examines the free exchanges and collaborations of an international community whose mailboxes and computers replace the museum, where the address is the art, and where 'mail art is not fine art, it is the artist who is fine.' Readers will find numerous photographs of mailed artifacts, performance events, congresses, stampsheets, posters, collages, artists' books, visual poetry, computer art, mail art zines, copy art and rubberstamped images." -- publisher's statement. Edited by Chuck Welch.
