Second Annual Mail Art Exhibit for Cancer
Research
The
theme is "Just Imagine...
( a world without cancer).
Our First Mail Art Show was held at the end of September 2006. It was a great success. Visitors
just loved the variety of artwork that was received. Over 270 pieces of mail art from over 40 countries worldwide. We were
able to contribute $374 in donations from our visitors to the Terry Fox Cancer Research Fund. This Exhibit was viewed by 1,800
visitors.
We have decided to do it again this year. Please get involved in this project! This exhibit apart from being
fun is also to help raise funds for Cancer Research. Cancer has touched everyone in someway; perhaps a family member, a friend
or a co-worker. So please send in your work! My goal is to get Mail Art from every country in the world - to show that the
world cares!!!
Postcard format.
deadline: September 15, 2007
All Mail Art received will be displayed during our local Deer Trail Studio Tour at
the end of September 2007. A donation box will be setup where visitors can donate funds and all the money raised will be donated
to Cancer Research. Thank you for helping us make our Second Annual Exhibit a success and supporting Cancer Research!

WHAT TIME IS IT?
Theme: Is it 20.08 or 2008? What is your time? Now, tomorrow? What is
the time where you live? Tell me about that in mail art pictures.
In Finland mail art is not yet widely known. I have an
opportunity to arrange a mail art exhibition in the City of Tampere, in the splendid exhibition rooms of Tampere Hall, with
the aim to make mail art better known to those living in Tampere.
The fine exhibition area, Winter Garden, is rather small,
it may hold only about 40-50 works. So, contrary to the civilized practice of mail art, I am forced to limit the number of
works chosen.
Those works that can’t be displayed in Tampere Hall will be exhibited in Gallery G, a gallery founded
by myself. It is also a Mini-Museum dedicated to mail art. It is no worse place, but naturally Tampere Hall has a finer reputation,
as it has housed large international congresses and EU-meetings.
Tampere is the third largest city in Finland and
the largest inland center in the Nordic countries (Finland,
Sweden, Norway).
Tampere Hall (Tampere-talo) is the largest concert and congress center in the Nordic
countries. Tampere Hall is located in Tampere on the edge of a lovely park, just across the road from the main building of
Tampere University and within a short walking distance of the city center.
The exhibition will take place either at the
end of 2007 or at the beginning of 2008. I will be informed of that as soon as the congress and concert program will be settled
in Tampere.

Cesare Pavese: the hills and the sun
Cesare Pavese Foundation organizes a MAIL ART PROJECT
Theme: Cesare Pavese:
the hills and the sun... Inspired by the famous Italian writer author of “La luna e I falo”, “Il diavolo
sulle colline”, “Paesi tuoi”, and many others. The sunny hills of Langa always remained in his mind... they
melded with his mystical and nostalgic childhood memories. He was always attempting to isolate himself from others, to chase
butterflies and birds, to explore the mysterious woods….
We are glad to inform you of the great success of this project
We
will be able to publish a catalogue with all works received on the occasion of Cesare Pavese’s Centenary in 2008.

MAILARTISTS! - Send your 'head and shoulders' photo for our Web
Gallery. We will include one photo of as many mailartists as possible.
Full details at http://www.keithbates.co.uk
Theme: Send your best portrait, this is for posterity. We would like a good, clear, 'head
and shoulders' photoportrait, taken recently or at your most creative time of life. Choose a picture of you at your best -
your happiest, your most hardworking, your most serious, your friendliest, your most enigmatic, one with a twinkle in your
eye, one that shows your true character. Whether it's a photo taken by yourself or someone else, we want the single shot that
best sums you up. A photo that captures you for posterity, for future generations to see.
We would also like to receive
the best photograph of each mailartist who has passed away, chosen by a close friend or relative. If we receive several photos
of a mailartist we will try to choose the best one.
Mailartist Photoportraits will be documented as an online gallery,
pictures added as we receive them, to form a lasting internet archive at http://www.keithbates.co.uk/cameraderie.html
For accessibility, photos will be grouped in albums according to country of residence. Photos will
be added as they are received and will be freely downloadable. Contact details will NOT be included on the website, only the
name of the pictured mailartist will accompany each photo.
Send Printed images of good size, but no larger than A4.
No
returns.

Adel
Imam
Theme:
The theme is Egypt's film superstar Adel Imam, whose credits include
105 movies. He is one of the best-known actors in the Arab world. In a rich career spanning 30 years, he has portrayed - with
humour - victims of injustice, poverty, corruption, fanaticism, and dictatorship. His roles have displayed a wide range of
humor including slapstick, farce, and even the occasional double entendre. His characters tend to be down on their luck rising
above powerful outside pressures. This has proved an extremely resilient type in the Arab World.
The exhibit will be held
in Kuwait, so images should not include any nudes or religious content as the censorship is strick- such are the conditions
we have to exhibit under. If you have the energy to contribute let me know what you think and I can send more details.
