David Stone, Baltimore, MD, USA

under the el is a journey through the noisy and bustling, lonely yet crowded streets of Chicago, the sketches of the raw characters there, and a breeze of words as blustery as the air of the Windy City. Full of colorful, if abstract, language of setting and time, politics and history, law and ruin, under the el drags you through the tracks of the elevated trains on a sight-seeing discovery of the underworld and the normalcy, alike; one breath for the good, one breath for the bad, but always breathing. The poems weave utopian ideas and concrete figures into one poetic storytelling of Chicago life and how the pace of the Midwest city differs from Stone's current life on the East Coast.

Serendipity, Redondo Beach, CA, USA

Thanks to Serendipity for this collection of mail Art Calls and enclosed artists address files.
Will be working on some of these in the days ahead.


FYI
Just to clarify . . . Studio J ArtSpace is an eclectic studio and it seems that a number of mailings have confused Snappy and Mailarta as the same artist. We do share the same postal address but are separate artists and distinct in our mailings.
Thanks for Understanding.
