outgoing collARTage "conceptual pot" to Yoko Ono (USA)



outgoing collARTage "conceptual pot" to Yoko Ono (USA) - I decided to send out some copies of Takako Saito's flower pot she sent me in for my Bismarck Mail Art call as a kind of conceptual art. She wrote on the pot that whoever will put something inside the pot it will become a portrait by Takako. (see here: http://bismarck-mail-art.blogspot.com/2009/09/no-138-arriving-mail-art-from-takako.html) This is the third trial to get a Bismarck portrait inside this fluxus pot. Inside I put one of my onelinedrawings - a portrait of Yoko Ono.
