Over the last 20 years, I have mailed cards from all corners of the world to galleries, newspapers and museums in Sweden. The motifs are always different, but the message remains the same: "Allt förlöper fint" (In English: Doing fine) on the front side and "Mvh. A. Granberg" (Best Regards, A. Granberg) on the back.

The project idea is to give the impression of a world citizen always on the road. In Sweden and in other countries, it is concidered important for artists to travel in order to absorb impressions and inspiration from a broad spectrum of world art and culture. However, few artists can afford it, including me. Hence, the vicarious vagabond.


I have e-mailed and faxed people in over 170 countries, asking for assistance in our project. Whoever is kind enough to help me recieves my home made postcards in an envelope. Adresses are already written on the postcards. These voulenteers then add their local stamps and mail the cards.

Two of the cards were adressed to myself for documentation and exhibition purposes.

The collection currently contains cards from 193 countries.
