Today is the 88th anniversary of the book-burning of the Nazis on May 10, 1933. „Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.“ (Jorge Augustín Nicolás Ruiz de Santayana) has been the motto for the Mail Art Campaign „Burning Of Books“ by Peter Schubert.
The response testifies to the unbroken importance of the topic:
Over 100 contributions from all over the world reached the Mail Art Artist in physical form, who has thus become the curator of an art collection that was born as an idea in the virtual space and spread through the mailbox of the initiator into our real world.
Starting today, the works can be seen in the Public Library of Geislingen, but due to covid actually only digital.
Although the official call for „Burning Of Books“ is over since March 2021, it is still possible to participate for this call with no limitations in time. No need to remain silent, never again is now.

As of today, the 7th of april, I have received art from more than 100 people from all over the world. This had been my first mail art call and I am really impressed about the resonance. So I’d like to thank you all to send me some of your artwork and I am overwhelmed from the broadness of your aproaches of interpreting the topic.
I have the possibility to exhibit all the artwork in the local public library here in town starting end of the month. As nobody knows, how Covid will develop and if the library is open or closed, we could exhibit as long as nobody else needs the space for an other exhibition. Pictures of the exhibition will follow. Also a small catalog in PDF format for download, where all of you will be mentioned as participators.
Although the official call for „Burning Of Books“ is over since March 2021, I will still accept participations for this call with no limitations in time. Also I will try to exhibit the art I have received as often as possible in the future. No need to remain silent.
