THÈME: Dancing Through Life

Commentaire: I'm sponsoring a mail art project at my ballroom dance studio. The mail art submitted will be exhibited in my studio for six weeks around March 20th which is the local art crawl. Nearly 300 people pass through my studio on that evening so submitted art will 
have a significant viewing.
What is mail art? Mail art is art that can be mailed through the postal service. Often it is on the outside of an envelope. 
Sometimes it is on the inside. It can be on/in a regular envelope, a legal or other size envelope, a post card, a box. It is up to you. Anyone can be a mail artist.
The theme, "Dancing Through Life," can be interpreted literally or figuratively. All submitted work will be exhibited. 
Documentation will be mailed to all who submit. No work will be returned. All submissions will become property of StudioJeff. 
Submissions may be exhibited at other dance studios in Minnesota or elsewhere.
StudioJeff is a school of ballroom and latin dance. I teach cha cha, fox trot, waltz, tango, rumba, hustle, samba, country 2 step, salsa, polka, line dancing, and more. I teach individuals, couples, and groups and I host parties and other events. Your artwork 
can reflect these or any other type of dancing or related issues. Is dancing your metaphor for survival? Is dancing your symbol for life? Has dancing brought you joy or pain? Express yourself in mail art and send it to me!! Painting, collage, photography, any medium that can be mailed works.

THÈME: Heebee Jeebeeland in the 4th Dimension

Commentaire: When I was a kid, there was an old cartoon I saw many times on TV.
While a child was sleeping, the unusual wallpaper all over his room came to life and began to dance back and forth, up and down in a rather fanciful symmetry accompanied by a sort of goofy graveyard mischief music. All manner of mayhem went on until the sun shone again at dawn and the dancing pranksters rushed back to their original spots and the wallpaper became still again. It is in the vicinity of that realm that Heebee Jeebeeland exists.
Please send Mail Art that needs to live in Heebee Jeebeeland .
Snail mail only please.

THÈME: LIMIT, EXCHANGE, SIGN

Commentaire: A tribute for the city of Portogruaro through a project involving art through mail. The keywords chosen as the theme are the motif of its foundation, joined in a common flow.
Limit - border between earth and water, the river harbor and the trade routes, the channels and the gardens of the palaces, a constant reference to a change in system, material and color.
Exchange - not only of goods but also of colours and scents, artistic and architectural influences, mutual knowledge, therefore culture.
Sign - a condition of consent expressed in gesture, the conclusion of an agreement, a trace superimposed on many others: whose meaning is beyond the sum of the parts.
Project by Rizoo Group, Tiziana Baracchi and Pro Loco di Portogruaro
Format and dimension of work: Artwork must be square. Maximum size 21 X 21 cm
No e-mail
No returns, no jury, no fee, no sales

THÈME: revising the 20th Century

Commentaire: As I work on making boxes for my TINY BOX project, it is time to begin the next project: revising the 20th Century.
I have a battered copy of the book "CENTURY: One Hundred Years of Human
Progress, Regression, Suffering and Hope," (published by Phaidon, shhhh: don't
tell them) which collects some 2000 photos depicting notable events of the 20th
Century. Wars, world leaders, cultural events, science/technology, winners,
losers, heroes, scumbags, etc, etc. Please alter these photos in any way and
return to me. I had love to make a book out of them, but will probably post them
online and make a multimedia presentation for my live music performances (and
provide the movie/music for download).
Tell me how many pages you want (2 photos per page), up to ten, one for each
decade, and I will mail you the pages. You alter and return. You donat need to
alter both photos or all the photos. Request a particular year and/or subject
and I'll try to fulfill.

THÈME: MOURNFUL DEMON - SPIRIT OF BANISHMENT (LOVE STORY)

Commentaire: "Fruits of our own fantasy - that's what we can love truly and worship..."
This is a mail-art project devoted to 200 year anniversary of Russian poet of the 19th century Michael Lermontov. The image of Demon is one of the most important in Lermonov`s art. His Demon is an angel banished from the sky but not accepted by the earth. Obsessed, impassioned, rejected by everybody rushing over the sinful earth between the good and the evil. Demon is doomed to create the evil but his heart is opened for love. The image of Demon is a personification of the inner world of Lermontov himself who was killed in a duel in 1841 at the age of 27. Lermontov's Demon is the solitude and the estrangement, the anxiety and the depravity and at the same time the intellect and the craft. The image of Demon is infinitely contradictory and many-sided. Many poets, painters and composers addressed to the topic of demonism in their art.
The basis of this mail-art project is a peculiar historical art parallel of Lermontov`s Demon with the creative process of Russian talented painter Michael Vrubel which he had at the beginning of 20th century working over his masterpieces devoted to the image of Demon.

THÈME: ALL THAT JAZZ !!! & STILL NO FREEDOM ???

Commentaire: This will be the new FRIOUR project. Personally I don't know any
music that embodies more the thirst for freedom than jazz music. Jazz
includes the notions of improvisations and excitement. It liberated the soul
and hearts of many, opened new roads and ways of playing music and listening
to music. In recent years I've become a huge jazz fan and became even
friends with a few Belgian jazz musicians, attending concerts and festivals
as much as I could. Despite all that jazz there is little room for
improvisation in business life, personal life and society as a whole. Do
people need a worldwide crisis to be controlled? Blow all fear away and
send your contributions for the next Friour Review issue.
Free medium.
Maximum size: A4.

THÈME: Honoring the Shadow

Commentaire: The Shadow is a psychological term introduced by the late Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. It is everything in us that is repressed, undeveloped and denied, both dark and light. The shadow represents all that the conscious person does not wish to acknowledge 
within themselves. Jung emphasized the importance of being aware of shadow material and incorporating it into conscious awareness. 
Otherwise we project these attributes onto others.
Honor your shadow by giving it visual form.
All mediums are welcome.
Artworks will be permanently displayed on my website.
