Overview Mail-Artists - Lutz Wohlrab - Germany
Two years ago my son Konrad had the idea to set up a Mail Artists' Index on the blogging platform Wordpress. Some problems cumulated beforehand when we were using Wikipedia to publish biographies. Entries as well as images had been deleted.
Using http://mailartists.wordpress.com/ gives us a lot more opportunities and space. We are able to present short biographies and three representative images for each artist featured in our list. We link to address lists, new projects and to the artists'
websites. We furthermore present some bibliographical material and a news site. Up to now 104 entries were produced, on average one per week.
Statistics show 36 000 clicks - with increasing interest. Birger Jesch has been supporting us from day one.
For the future we wish for some correspondents from abroad who will compile biographies of the most interesting Mail Artists of their respective countries.

USA mail artists: NEW
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/USAmailartists/
About this group: USA Mail Artists is a group for people 18 and over who like to create and exchange mail art. Any mail artist who is willing to post their mailing address in our database for exchange of mail art with other US mail artists is welcome to join. There is no off topic posting, it must be about mail art. Also, please no cross posting of mail art calls from outside the USA. This group is to focus on US mail art. You may post mail art calls in the database, but you are responsible to maintain your listing. You can add a link to your blog or site in the Links section.
Pass the word on to other US mail artists that you know already. Sending mail art on this group is strictly the responsibility of each member and is not endorsed, monitored or controlled by the group moderator. Do not always expect returns, that is the nature of mail art. Be patient, sometimes people are very busy with life and get out their returns infrequently. You can post photos of your mail art in the Photos section. Limit your photos to 20 so each member has space. Please email the moderator with your real name/pen name, mailing address and email to join the group.
