The World N.E.W.S. Project
A Global Art Project by Jason Wallengren
About the Project:
"In a project the relation between the activities in the beginning and any eventual issue is uncertain." - Michael Sheringham
This project will use everyday news imagery as devices of transaction and exchange between the cultural landscape, media, and personal memories.
I will respond to and create work(s) after I receive the newspapers from everyone.
To participate:
It's easy! Just buy a newspaper - wherever you are - on April 3rd, 2009 and mail it to me.
Place the newspaper in any type of envelope and mail it to me at (it's OK to fold it):
Jason Wallengren
Innerer Kleinreuther Weg 25A
90408 Nurnberg
Germany
Because it will cost a few dollars for you, in exchange I will send you a small original signed artwork.
I will get your address after.
Important Info:
- The newspaper must have the April 3rd, 2009 date on it.
- It does not have to be mailed on April 3rd. Mail it at your convenience.
- The choice is yours as to what newspaper to send. A newspaper from wherever you are on April 3rd.
- Please put your return address on the envelope, so I know who sent it.
- I will send another email on April 2nd to remind all of you.
- You do not have to reply to this email, just buy a newspaper on April 3rd and send it.
- And you will get an original signed artwork!
Thank you in advance,
Jason Wallengren
