Umbrella Art

One of four postcards featuring umbrellas.

International Mail Art Exhibition
in Honor and Memory of Judith A. Hoffberg
June 27 - August 22
Armory Center for the Arts
The Caldwell Gallery

I made four clip art postcards and a "newsletter" (see more below), all sent by snail mail, as required, for the final exhibition curated by Jay Belloli at the Armory. From the website and press release:
 

The International Mail Art Show is a massive, global mobilization: nearly 800 pieces of mail art from more than 25 countries representing every continent (except Antarctica)... a touching and monumental tribute to the late great Judy Hoffberg.
 
Judith A. Hoffberg (1934-2009) was an avid and active promoter of mail art and artists’ books. She was editor and publisher of "Umbrella," a newsletter devoted to all manner of art publishing and art exhibitions. In addition to Judith’s work as a librarian, archivist, lecturer and curator, she gave unstintingly of her time and energy to promote artists through her encouragement and connections in the art world. All mail art included in the exhibition will be donated to the Judith A. Hoffberg Archive at the Library, University of California, Santa Barbara, with the permission of the artists.

 
Here are my other three postcards:
 

Here are the cover and the three pages of the "newsletter":
