The book of Ann is the 12th FRIOUR project.

Who is Ann? For me she is a real person.
For you she's a mythical femail.

Let's construct together the book of Ann!

How does she feel? How does she thinks? How does she act? Is she a rebel? Is she a mother? Is she the salt of the earth?

Free size and medium. Text and poems are also welcome. Deadline for contributions is 31 December 2011.
All the contributions will be united in a time capsule.
Documentation on this blog.
Unfriendly femail mail art will be banned.

Mail address: The book of Ann, c/o Guido Vermeulen, Thomas Vinçottestreet 81, B-1030 Brussels, Belgium

Detail of a large work mailed by Cathérine Petré, Belgium

Comment in Dutch by Pieter Grootendorst:

-Raak me eens aan
-Waarom?
-Omdat ik moe ben
-Hoe? Waarvan?
-Van de afstand tussen mensen, van de opgewektheid die je in je dagelijkse leven voor moet wenden om niet uit de toon te vallen, van het luisteren naar gedachten die een eigen leven leiden ...
-Wat moet jij moe zijn!
-Dat zeg ik toch
-Zal ik je aanraken?
-Graag.

(beautiful text, reminds me very much of "Touch me" by The Doors)

ANN, I LIKE NON-NUCLEAR FLOWER POWER

QUEEN ANN



As a statue she sits on her summer throne
& contemplates the rhythm of the passing clouds.
I wonder where my servant lover is, she moans.
I am bored by absolute power & the glitter of my wealth.
Ah, if I could drown my sorrows & questions in the fountain
of eternal youth while soldiers salute me & march on
& die so happily for so little reward or recognition.
I grant them a footnote in the history of my queendom.
I grant them a medal for services rendered
for queen & country & some marigolds.

Guido Vermeulen
