thinking about the mailbox theatre reminded me of a curious art/container/exhibit that once materialised outside the local mueseum and stayed for a number of weeks - a fullsized shipping container with numerous round peepholes cut into it. At the time I didn’t join the gulible crowd surrounding it, so never did find out what was in it.
turns out it was part of a nationwide traveliing exhibition, conceived and developed by artist Jimmy Cauty and London based galery/workshop L-13.
turns out too, that Cauty drew the ‘famous’ lord of the Rings Athena poster that adorned many a geeks bedroom wall (like mine) in the early 80’s. And was a part of the electronic sound outfit KLF. starnge to think that I’ve been aware of all these for years, and never put them together.
