Mailed Art in Uppsala. Choosing Your Partner, project

Organizer(s): Meyer, Peter R. – Leif Eriksson

Location: Uppsala, Sweden

Date: 1984-1994

Number of participants: ca. 350

Comment: The project run for 10 years started by Peter R. Meyer and Leif Eriksson in 1984. This is one of those rare examples in Mail Art context when a grand project taking up a huge space and time finally gets realized. Sadly often these kind of trials end up unfinished. Meyer and Eriksson taking a new impulsive step after ten years of hiatus proved this wrong.
According to the Call for the show there was an exhibition held in Uppsala from the 4th of June till the 17th of September. However on the catalog we don’t see any information on that. We would be thankful for a further information.
