The National Museum of Computing invites you to view Pushing the Envelope: An exhibition of mailed and correspondence art, an innovative exhibition coordinated by TNMOC's first artist-in-residence, Lucy Helton.
Pushing the Envelope: An exhibition of mailed and correspondence art showcases work made by 2D artists who either use or reference archaic technologies. As The National Museum of Computing houses the world's first electronic computer, the Colossus, which Tommy Flowers spent eleven months designing and building at the Post Office Research Station in North West London, each artwork will be posted into the Museum. The mailed artworks are to be hung through-out the galleries between, beside or over the machines themselves. While the museum’s visitors will diversify and expand the artists' audiences, the exhibition aims to introduce art to the visitors they would otherwise never see.
The exhibition features work from the following artists:
Through technical support from Museum volunteers, Lucy and participating artists have transformed the Museum into a vehicle for artistic expression.
