... art (not) in vain ...







the trial to keep the photo fixed, unfortunatey I only had old photographical chemicals at home, already years expired, but I tried it nevertheless - nothing to loose - in the end I got a glimpse look to the photo Vittore sent me, (see about all that below). Vittore put inside a copy of the making of on red paper, in the darkroom I have thrown it to the chemicals too, here are the results of it after drying.

arriving mail art from Vittore Baroni (Italy)





arriving mail art from Vittore Baroni (Italy) - lots of paper material about ArtDetox and his mail art statements. The most interesting to me is a closed envelope on which it is written "Art in Vain - this image will disappear if exposed to light" it is a multiple of 50 pieces. I love this idea, and suppose there is an undevelopped photograph inside, so I will open it later on to put in to photographical chemicals, to see wheter I can fix the photo. see next post.
Thank you.
