(,) Re: marilyn's passing
Marilyn is a loss to the Network as well as to those like Guido, who knew her personally.I think her nom de plume Shadow may have been prophetic.

Re: (,) Marilyn's passing
She was a brilliant artist. Everything she sent was full of visual tricks that delight the eye. I will miss the thrill of seeing her envelope glowing in my mail box. I knew it contained a treasure made just for me. Guido --- Reid Wood [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear Guido, Thank you for passing along this sad news. It is doubly poignant because May 22 is my birthday. Reid On Monday, May 23, 2005, at 06:00 PM, Guido Vermeulen wrote: Dear Mail artists, I have the very painful news to tell all of you: Marilyn Dammann (also known as Shadow in the network) died yesterday, Sunday afternoon, May 22. She had spread a message she'd retired from mail art activities. The truth behind this message was that she was dying of a general cancer. Only a few people knew this and kept this a secret like she wished. She made a last trip with her children and grand children. Her beautiful house and garden in the UP that I visited twice will become a community arts gallery in her honor. I'm very shocked and in deep mourning. The mail art network has lost one its finest members. I've lost a very good friend. Let's all remember her in thoughts and art.

(,) send book zines to Kosovo
I recently donated one of my artist books to a library in Kosovo (Balkans, ex-Yugoslavia, Serbia). I just received a thank you letter from Roman A. Dogan by snail mail. I am the ONLY one to send a donation to them. He said the average monthly salary in Kosovo is $30 and unemployment is 60%. They have no computer or internet access. They depend on donations, but there has been no response from abroad. He asked me to ask others to send donations of videos, CDs, books or periodicals. They are especially interested in books on politics, art artists, and practical issues: arts crafts, garden, home repairs, No fiction or literature is needed. Any languages are welcome, though he mentions that few people speak Spanish in Kosovo. Also send T shirts, artstic prints and used postage stamps for the children's collections. I found the Kosovo library from this website: Infoshops Zine Libraries http://www.undergroundpress.org/infoshops.html Heres the listing, with an updated address as of May 2005 -- Please donate! - Tamara Wyndham Kosovo RLP, c/o PF 44, CH 4142, Munchenstein 3, Switzerland Using this address because it is more secure; no Internet access. Seeking donations for independent free reference library. Any zine or book donations welcomed. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
