Ruud Janssen studied Physics and Mathematics. He became active with mail art in 1980 and did several international mail art projects. From 1994 till 2001 he has conducted interviews with Fluxus and mail-artists in different communication forms; the results have been published in booklets and on the internet since 1996. In later years he focused more on acrylic painting and individual correspondences. He always maintains his site with the latest details of his work.Janssen publishes articles, magazines and booklets with his TAM-Publications and participates in international mail-art projects, collaborations and exhibitions. He founded IUOMA (International Union of Mail-Artists) in 1988 and is also the curator of the TAM-Rubberstamp Archive, the result of a Mail-Art collection that has been accumulated by him from 1983 till now. It is the longest time a mail art project has run ever. Part of the collection has been exhibited in San Francisco (1996), Moscow (2004) and New York (2010). In 1994 he started the Mail-interviews project which has been published as booklets and online. In 2008 the complete result was also made available in book-form (5 books). The interviews have a new concept where the question is sent in a specific communication form and the interviewed person chooses his own way to get the answer back. This way the factor time is involved in each specific interview. In 2003 Litsa Spathi founded together with Ruud Janssen the Fluxus Heidelberg Center for which they are building up a collection of Fluxus material and where they also publish their own works.Besides his work in the art world Ruud Janssen was always active as a lecturer.
