Summary:

This book -- the fruit of a lengthy research project, which has allowed us to gather and organize coherent sets of material that reflect the timeline of René Heyvaert (1928?1984)?s artistic experimentations -- aims to show, for the first time, a significant selection of his mail art. His mail art is linked to his generally multiform oeuvre -- which retains, given that he was originally an architect, an overt material and spatial relation to its environment -- as well as to his vital circumstances: his gradually deteriorating health, and the loneliness that fed his epistolary vocation.
