You've Got Mail!

Looking for today’s hot topics in art? Apparently, mail is in fashion! Three galleries in Bellingham are hosting mail-themed gallery exhibitions this winter; Mindport’s “Write ON: Going Postal in the Age of E-Mail”, the Viking Union Gallery’s “You’ve Got Secrets!”, and Jinx Art Space’s “Postal”.

Check out Tallie Jones’ exploration of old correspondences at Mindport, submit a secret or two to VU Gallery’s PostSecret inspired show, and buy a stamp for your submission to Jinx’s mail freedom of expression.

More details and words from the artists and curators in the Cascadia Weekly’s article “Going Postal”.

Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre

My older brother sent an email my way with the work of Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre attached to it. They have recently completed a 5 year project on photographing a series titled Detroit In Ruins. Absolutely stunning work! There’s a some overlapping photos from the articles and their website, but otherwise there are two different sets of images…make sure to check them both out!

 

Detroit in Ruins - William Livingstone House, Brush Park, a French Renaissance-style house designed by Albert Kahn in 1893 and demolished since this photograph was taken.
