Foreword

Luba Lukova

Once I had an argument with an artist friend whom I deeply respect.

As artists often do, we argued about the importance of art in real life.

At one point my friend uttered with a sigh, “Art can not change the

world.” He said it without cynicism but with certainty, and this ended our

conversation. Still, for me the debate continued. I could not understand

how someone with his talent could reach such a conviction. I kept asking

myself if he was really right and if one day I would share the same belief.

Well, it is easy to get discouraged about the meaning of our work when

we see that abuse and injustice continue despite the creation of so much

powerful art. Does art really change anything? I do believe so. I think art

changes the world the way drops of water transform the surface of a rock,

slowly but surely. It is impossible for art to fix a declining economy or stop

all wars, but art changes the way people see and understand reality. And

if as artists we often lose faith in the impact of our work, those in power

are quite aware of it. If art were so innocent and benign, there wouldn’t

be censorship in this world. If art were so unimportant, would Popes and

dictators depend so much on it?

The 53 posters included in this calendar want to make a difference.

Created by artists from diverse parts of the globe, these images speak

a universal visual language. There is compassion, anger, humor, and

intelligence in these posters, and they express it all with almost no

words. This is the greatest power of the poster medium: to grab the

viewer’s attention and in seconds to translate a complex idea into a simple

message. In today’s digital era so much culture comes to us through a

computer screen. We are drowned in email blasts and web pages and it

seems that poster art has lost its importance as a communicative tool.

But posters live in theaters and clubs and political rallies, places where

real people meet other real people. And I believe we need that human

connection even more now that we’re in such a virtual world.

Critics often do not qualify posters as high art. While this is actually

a good subject for another argument, art is not a definition, it is an

experience. If the posters in this collection move you and make you think,

then it doesn’t matter how a critic would label them. They are art with a

capital “A,” art that is able to spark change.

CoNTrIBUTorSWe asked the contributing artists to the 2010 Peace Calendar, who generously donated the use of their work, to answer the question:

Why do you create art on social themes?

ronald J Cala II, USAwww.i2iart.com/Cala

ronald J Cala II received his MFA in graphic and interactivedesign from Tyler School of Art, Temple university. He is currentlythe art director at CMYK magazine as well as being the founder andprincipal of Calagraphic Design and co-founder of SomewhatAwesome Design and Shy Girl Design.

I think we are responsible to use our gifts to leave the world a little better than we’ve received it.

Fang Chen, [email protected]

Fang Chen was born in China, where he completed his BS and MFA in graphic design. Currently Chen is a member of the graphic design faculty at Pennsylvania State University. He has had laureate solo exhibitions at the Festival d’Affiches de Chaumont, the Colorado Poster Biennial, and the Trnava Poster Triennial.

I hope my posters will bring broad awareness of related social issues so as to make a better world.

Lex drewinski, [email protected]

Lex Drewinski was born and raised in Poland. He graduated with honors from Waldemar Swierzy’s poster art class at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan. He worked as a director and scriptwriter at the Animated Film Studio in Poznan before leaving Poland for West Berlin in 1985. Since 1992 he has been a professor of graphic design at the university of Applied Sciences in Potsdam, Germany, and in 2008 was awarded a doctorate of fine arts. His work is exhibited around the globe and has garnered countless international recognitions.

Winston Churchill once said “If you’re not interested in politics you can be sure, someday, politics will be interested in you.” It’s amazing how little our voices are heard concerning how our government acts on our behalf–what little influence we are able to exert on it. I always try to at least draw attention to this in my posters.

His drawings have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Reader’s Digest. He is the creator of the humorous Manhatitlan Codex, where he mixes Mexican images with American icons.

I believe visual art can contribute to the discussion on social issues.

Aleksandra Nina Knezevic, Bosnia & Herzegovinawww.ninadesign.co.ba

Aleksandra Nina Knezevic was born in Sarajevo and graduated from the Academy of Art in Cetinje, Montenegro. Her projects have been awarded in design festivals in Bosnia, Slovenia, the u.S., and Japan. Since 2006, she is the president of the Bosnian Association of Applied Artists and Designers.

Since 1992 he has been teaching graphic design and illustration at Missouri State university, where he is currently a professor.

I have a desperate need to visually comment on things around me that affect me personally and share that with my audience.

Milán Kopasz, Hungarywww.milankopasz.blogspot.com

Milán Kopasz is a Budapest based artist and graphic designer. He finished his studies at KreA Contemporary Art School in 2009. He has had two personal exhibitions and participated in several art contests. Currently he is studying animation at Moholy-Nagy university of Art And Design.

These images were created during the Dark Ages, that is to say, during the Bush administration. This art was my best effort to shead some empowering light and reflect the hope that someday we might move beyond that dreadful period in our history.

Yossi Lemel, Israelwww.lemel.co.il

His posters are exhibited around the world and are in the permanent collections of the victoria and Albert Museum, London; the Palais du Louvre, Paris; and the National Museum in Poznan, Poland.

I guess I create social art first of all because both of my parents were victims of the Holocaust. I’ve developed sensitivities to human rights, justice, and the need to fight for a better world.

Luba Lukova, USAwww.clayandgold.com

Luba Lukova is an artist and designer based in New York. Her art has been featured in Time, The New York Times, and The Nation.

I keep my eyes, ears and most important my heart open to what is happening around us and then I express what I feel...

Mcray Magleby, USAPhone: (801) 375-2105

Mcray Magleby, formerly creative director for Brigham Young university Publications & Graphics, is now a professor emeritus of graphic design at the university of utah and manages his own studio, Magleby and Company, located at his home in Provo, utah.

The War Resisters League affirms that all war is a crime against humanity. We therefore are deter-mined not to support any kind of war, inter-national or civil, and to strive nonviolently for the removal of the causes of war, including racism, sexism and all forms of human exploitation.

The proceeds from the sale of this calendar will be used by the War Resisters League in its work for peace and justice at home and abroad.
