MAIL ART NEWS

  C. van Hest Welcome to Mail Art News #69. There isn't much sexually-themed mail art on the internet, but there is some , so let's take a look. Surprisingly, no one on IUOMA responded to my request for sexual / sensual mail art. No matter. The show must go on! There was a call for nudity in mail art by Carla Cryptic in 2009  that received over forty submissions, but I don't see any documentation of the submissions online. My email to Carla Cryptic did not get a response.  Pat Larter Stacy E.
