On Mailing Signs

If you are interested in participating in this project and would like to have a sign mailed to you, please contact me via email through my web page and I will get you a registration form and instructions.

In order to send a sign to you, I do request that a $5 contribution (or similarly valued artwork donation) be mailed to me with your hard copy registration form to offset sign production and mailing costs. Sign requests received without proper registration forms and the aforementioned contribution shall not be honored.

After receipt of your mailed sign, please also email a photo of the sign as placed for documentation purposes. Donated artworks received and photographs of signs placed will be posted to the blog and possibly later included in a show devoted to this project at my discretion and as space permits. Any artworks received shall not be returned and will become part of the documentation of this project.

Please note: mailed signs will be sent via the U.S. Post Office with postage affixed directly to the sign itself and so will not come with sign wires. Sign shipment is at the risk of the recipient; lost signs cannot be replaced.

About This Project

Jennifer Weigel created the Art Is Everywhere series of viewer participatory artworks to comment on and explore the thriving existence of art beyond strictly the gallery and museum settings. There are multitudes of creative people who never show their art in the formal art world and yet make wonderful and amazing contributions to the arts. Some are outsider artists who lack formal training while others find that they can connect with a wider range of people and explore different ideas outside of the formal art world.

This blog has been created to document the Art Is Everywhere sign project. The sign project debut occurred at the Fluxus St. Louis ArtFarm during the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis' Open Studios tour in July 2010. Weigel also offered a selection of her similarly-themed Cafe Press merchandise for sale at the event.

Art Is Everywhere is essentially meant to act as a subversive reminder that art is, in fact, EVERYWHERE.
