Entry 1197 — Ruggero Maggi to the Rescue

Thursday, August 29th, 2013

Another SASE from Ruggero Maggi:

Maggi2Front

Maggi2Back

SASE Mail Art Project of Crag’s, this blog would be dead.  I am so out of it.

Meanwhile, another disappointment is beginning to build.  It is now three weeks since I sent a proposal to ARTnews hoping to interest them in a piece about visual poetry.  No word back.  I sent them my e.mail address and . . . an SASE!  (No, not a Mail Art one.  Perhaps I shouldda.)  I know, three weeks is no time at all with these things.  In fact, it at least shows they didn’t immediately reject my proposal.  Unless they have such an enormous backlog that they haven’t seen it yet.

Entry 1149 — Mail Art Specimen from Guillermo Deisler

Friday, July 12th, 2013

One of the finest mail artists and visual poets I’ve known about was Guillermo Deisler, who died in 1995, only 55.  One of his efforts was among the pieces Crag sent me.  Here it is, front and back:
