This Building Is Covered In Romantic Letters, And It’ll Make You Believe In Love Again. April 1, 2023Leave a comment

Despite the convenience of instant emails and texts, nothing beats getting a handwritten letter. The art of sending a friend or loved a note is a lost art. German artist [HA Schult][1] took the nostalgic practice and applied it to one of his projects in 2001. Schult took over a Berlin post office and covered it with paper for the piece *Love Letters Building*. He asked people to send him their personal written notes: he received an overwhelming 150,000. The conceptual artist plastered 35,000 documented words on the outside of the building while 115,000 were inside. [1]: http://www.haschult.de/
