Ray Johnson, “the most famous unknown; artist” in America, transmitted his extraordinary cultural commentaries in unexpected ways—both through the medium of collage and by transmission through the postal service. Founder of the New York Correspondence School, a network that brought art out of galleries and into the postal system, Johnson has been much imitated but never surpassed. Read “The Mailed Art of Ray Johnson” by Clive Phillpot
