Artistamp News
Artistamp? Apparently there’s lots-o-controversy over this largely ignored art form: ” Go back to the roots, to ART, and there start your search for wisdom. And artistamps, if you want to define . . . you will never reach the target.” All this fuss over stamps!?! And so you find yourself reading Artistamp News precisely because you would never find yourself reading Artistamp News. But it’s interesting. There’s a balance between info reserved for diehards (exhibitions, artist profiles) and bizarre but entertaining tidbits for the rest of society. Best of are the reviews of artistamps (“Peace in Kosovo” to “Kurt Cobain”) and the actual samples that are included! (PC)
