Postcards for Democracy: A Collective Art Demo | SXSW Online 2021

Описание: Artistic visionaries Mark Mothersbaugh & Beatie Wolfe share a love of tangible artforms, in and amongst their futuristic explorations. In light of the threat to our 225yr old postal service, at a time that could jeopardize the democracy of the country, Mothersbaugh and Wolfe joined forces for this collective postcard art demonstration. The aim of this campaign is to encourage as many people as possible to support USPS (if we don't use it we'll lose it!), our right to vote, and democracy as a whole via the power of art. The demonstration asks you to buy USPS stamps, design your postcard and then mail it to 8760 Sunset Blvd. The postcards will become part of a collective art piece art directed by Mark Mothersbaugh and Beatie Wolfe which will be presented at SXSW.
