SUMMARY:Call for works: A Book About Death At MUBE, Sao Paulo, Brazil
DESCRIPTION:MUBE – Museu Brasileiro da Escultura is looking for subm
 issions from artists throughout the world as a critical part and new c
 hapter in the exhibition of the “A Book About Death” collaborative
  project. This exhibition at MUBE opens on February 6, 2010 and runs t
 hrough February 28.\n\n“A Book About Death” is a collaborative pro
 ject conceived by american artist Matthew Rose for the Emily Harvey Fo
 undation in New York City, where the original exhibition took place fr
 om September 10 – 22, 2009. Approximately 500 artists contributed 50
 0 artworks in the form of post cards of varying sizes each created fro
 m works made especially to create an unbound book about death.\n\nThe 
 exhibition paid special homage to Ray Johnson (1927-1995), a highly in
 fluential figure in contemporary American art, a formidable collage ar
 tist and long acknowledged as the “Father of Mail Art” with his cr
 eation of a network, The New York Correspondence School. The exhibitio
 n also paid homage and celebrated the life of Emily Harvey (1941-2004)
 , the late art dealer who tirelessly promoted Fluxus artist and whose 
 Foundation generously supported the project.\n\nThe exhibition opened 
 with a packed house, and a line snaking up Broadway more than 500 peop
 le long waiting to get in the doors to make\ntheir own book. Since the
 n, the exhibition has traveled to the Otis College of Art and Design i
 n LA, The River Mill Art Gallery in New Jersey, The Mobius Gallery in 
 Boston, MA, The Queens Museum in Queens, NY, The Sexta Literary Arts F
 estival in Tijuana in Mexico, as well as smaller galleries and schools
  in Louisiana, Wisconsin and Long Island. Complete sets of “A Book A
 bout Death have entered into the permanent collections of the Museum o
 f Modern Art (Library), and the LA County Museum of Art Research Libra
 ry.\n\nAnd the project, in its sprawling global reach explored how we 
 celebrate memory and death. The only requirement to participate in the
  project was to include the words “A Book About Death” somewhere o
 n the card. Ideal dimensions are 6″ x 4″ either horizontal or vert
 ical orientation, but variations in size are permissible. We would lik
 e to ask all artists to be aware that we need to easily install works 
 on the wall, so consider this aspect of the exhibition. They can be ha
 ndmade or printed commercially. You can mail the card by itself or in 
 an envelope.\n\nWe are also asking individual artists to submit works,
  either a single card or a group of cards for exhibition at MUBE. A de
 adline of January 30, 2010 has been set for reception of all submissio
 ns, although we will install any cards received after that date. Digit
 al works are not accepted, sorry. To be included in this exhibition, m
 ake a postcard on the theme of death and send it to:\n\nMUBE – Museu
  Brasileiro da Escultura\nAvenida Europa, 218 – Jardim Europa\nCEP 0
 1449 000 – São Paulo – Brasil\n\nSend a jpg image to: atelierferr
 ara@gmail.com\n\nAll works submitted to MUBE will become a part of the
  permanent collection of the Museum, and will not be returned.\n\nDocu
 mentation online of all new works will be made over the course of the 
 next few months.\n\nhttp://umlivrosobreamorte.blogspot.com\nhttp://abo
