Posters for Peace & Justice 2011 Wall Calendar: A History of Modern Political Action Posters

From the days of the Quaker broadsides against slavery to the current conflict in the Middle East, people have used ink and paper to speak out for peace and justice. Amber Lotus is proud to present the Posters for Peace & Justice 2011 Wall Calendar, a survey of modern political poster art. Among the many types of activist art and the plethora of perspectives they voice, posters for peace and justice stand out. Combining texture, color and succinct written messages to call viewers to action, these images can be seen papered along brick walls, stapled to power poles, stuck to bumpers, duplicated on T-shirts and digitized on the Internet.
Produced in collaboration with the Center for the Study of Political Graphics and various independent artists, this inspiring calendar offers reprints of political action posters, many of them still disturbingly relevant, combined with mission statements on the posters from the original artists.
The interior pages of this calendar are printed on 100% recycled, 50% post-consumer paper, processed chlorine free and printed with soy based inks.
