F. Côté, 12465 Ave de Troyes, Quebec, QC, G2A 3C9, Canada2CALL FOR MAIL ART:“I’m coming to see you” On 14 May 2005, the City of Dijon will hold its “Celebrating Europe” event, with participants from the fields of research, science, politics, academics, economics and culture. “Dijon, the European City, Celebrates the Union”, bringing out the points that Member States share and highlighting the work they do together, rather than their differences.  One part of the celebration will be a mail art project on the theme of mobility, in which I am inviting you to take part today and spread the word around you.*One of the cultures common to all of Europe is sending mail; when the mailman brings news, whether good or bad, he turns into a bearer of hope and culture for a humanistic and social Europe.  Free movement should not stop at merchandise – every individual should be able to say to his European neighbour, “I’m coming to see you”, pledging thereby to the fundamental and universal values that we should be putting forth each day. *François-André ALLAERT / Deputy Delegate for International Relations and EuropeCurator: Reine SHAD / Technical Coordination: SABOTAGESend your vision and ideas on the topic, “I’m coming to see you”,by 1 May 2005.  Technique and format are open.

YES interculturalOn October 21st. it will be 10 years since the death of one of the most important and influential artists and poets of the 60's in Latin America, the Chilean Guillermo Deisler (1940 - 1995).Poet, performer, mailartist, graphics, engravings, etc., also he too will be remembered for his work as a printer. Not only because of the excellence of his "handmade" editions, especially those created in Chile (Ediciones Mimbre), but also for UNI/vers, a magazine made through artistic cooperation and interaction which delivered 35 issues and brought together hundreds of international artists of varied techniques and aesthetic roots.Guillermo Deisler's singular situation came as a result of cultural interweaving: that of his German and Chilean ancestors, the mixture of indigenous and conquering cultures; the Araucanian and Mapuche indians, the Creoles... following this, his discovery of the ancient Greek/Latin culture during his exile in Bulgary and, finally, of the German culture. All these expressions reunite and expand in Deisler to make him a universal being, the "networker" prototype in which all cultures coexist in a sort of individual multiculturality, notwithstanding the seeming contradiction.So, we invited you to participate in this exhibition-homage: NO borders. YES interculturalNone other could be the meaning of his verse: "I sometimes get tired of being a foreigner", or his favourite symbol, the feather, an emblem of the freedom which "crosses all frontiers", or the very name of his utopia -UNI/vers- aimed at the unification of humanity.Deadline: October 21th, 2005Technique and size: freeWill be sent documentation to all the participants.All the received works will be gone exposing on line in the Gallery BOEK 861 "HOMAGE TO GUILLERMO DEISLER"Curators: César Reglero and Clemente PadínSending to:BOEK 861c/o Cesar RegleroApartado 861TarragonaSPAINFor netartworks send by email to Cesar Reglero: cesar@boek861.com (Max. 99 KB and JPG)http://boek861.com4MAIL ART SOUND - THE SOUNDTRACK FOR YOUR ARTit consists in create a soundtrack with noises,music,talks,for  your art recorded in a cassette tape with free durationtime and send together with your art.Deadline - August - 2005Contacts : C/o José NogueiraCx.
