*******************
Space 1026 is proud to present This is a Love Letter, a collection of personal letters from Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz to native Philadelphian Tracey Claudius. Providing a rare glimpse into the beloved cartoonist’s life and private thoughts in the early ’70s, this event marks the first time the letters will be presented to the public by their owner, Claudius’ daughter Katie Leeman .
David Michaelis’ biography of Charles M. Schulz, Schulz and Peanuts (Harper-Perennial, 2008), revealed the beloved Peanuts icon’s relationship with fan and friend, Tracey Claudius. During the 70s, Schulz briefly dated Claudius, and the famed cartoonist wrote nearly one hundred poignant and heartfelt letters to her throughout their time together. Now unearthed by Claudius’ daughter, these love letters bear testimony to a warm and affectionate two-year relationship, and offer a tender glimpse at the mind that created an international institution.

Melt. Down. installation by Bradford Haubrich
Former Space 1026 intern and current friend and supporter Bradford Haubrich has undertaken an interesting project. Melt. Down. is a melting art installation in a store front window in South Philly. Beginning in early March, the “melts” have morphed the once snow-y landscape into a brighter, colorful assemblage.
The next change will occur tomorrow, March 29th and hopefully this current cold spell will take the hint. For more info, check out Brad’s blog – Drawing the World.
