Worldwide Call for Mail Art!
My friend, Erika, and I have been selected to do an exhibit at the Top Of The World Observatory at the Baltimore, Maryland World Trade Center. We’re going to be exhibiting mail art, which means we need your help! This is your chance to share your views of the world and with the world through mail art, alongside other global participants!Guidelines:
Artists should submit an original piece of artwork responding to the
question, “What’s your view?” This question is intentionally open-ended,
so interpret it as you like. Possible interpretations: What is your
view of your city? What is your view of Baltimore? What is your view
from your window? Participation is free. Participants do not have to be “trained artists” Artists may submit a maximum of 2 pieces. Artwork can be any shape, but should be no larger than 5 x 7 inches (12.7 x 17.8 centimeters). Artwork can be submitted from any country.
Artwork can include any medium and subject matter, but please be
“family-friendly” as this gallery is public and visited by people of all
ages. Artwork will be photographed and digitally archived online.
All participants will receive a booklet sent to their mailbox of all
submissions in the show. These will be mailed out after the show has
been completed.
Artwork will not be returned to the artists and will become property of
Mary England and Erika Kim Milenkovic. England and Milenkovic reserve
the right to utilize or not utilize submitted artwork to create art
installations/exhibitions.
Please be advised that only one side of your artwork will be exhibited
in the show. Please indicate your city and country on the exhibited,
front side of your piece.
On the back of your piece, please indicate the title of the piece, your
medium, and the name/pseudonym we may use to recognize you. A brief
note is optional if you’d like to explain a little about your piece.
