CANADIAN MAIL ARTISTS LINK UP

It is Mailart's spirit to correspond through the mail and until recently via internet so very few artists get the opportunity to meet each other "live".

I have had the chance to meet RF CÔTÉ, STEVEN RENALD and DEWI in the past year. It is always a thrill to meet the person behind the Mail Art. Next week I will be meeting PETER DOWKER in his Flip Flop shop. This promises to be very interesting !

Also planned for this summer, a meeting with LORRAINE KWAN and HÉLÈNE LACELLE at her Gallery of Ornamental Post (GOOP) in Ottawa, Ontario.
