Pop Art Planners 2011, 2012

Most of the calendars I feature on my blog are meant, implicitly or explicitly, for women. These aren’t. Whether it’s Andy Warhol’s date book devoted to cars, or Dale Chihuly abstract work – I don’t think many men will be ashamed to walk around with most of these pop art planners.

Shown above is one of the pages in the The Art of Andy Warhol 2012 Softcover Planner.

Charley Harper 2012 Softcover Planner Whether his subject was birds, bears, or bugs, American artist Charley Harper (1922–2007) made paintings filled with color, motion, and fun. This calendar includes thirty-two creative Harper images—from warbler to weasel to whale—that perfectly capture his subjects’ personalities.

Charley Harper Postcards 2012 Softcover Planner Here are twenty-six of Charley Harper’s delightful paintings—each one printed on a postcard easily detached for mailing—sampled from his bountiful body of work.

The Art of Andy Warhol 2011 Hardcover Engagement Calendar
Pop artist Andy Warhol is a source of continuing fascination and visual excitement. While he first worked as an illustrator, he grew most famous for appropriating images from popular culture and incorporating them into his paintings and silkscreen prints. Abrams’ 2011 Warhol datebook features more than fifty full-color images from the 1950s through the 1980s. It highlights the artist’s most fabulous and recognizable works of art along with a rich and rare selection of drawings, photographs, illustrations, and quotations.

Frank Lloyd Wright Designs Postcards 2011 Softcover Engagement Planner
Shadows were the brushwork of the ancient architect. Let the modern now work with light. Many of the towers and textile-block facades designed by Frank Lloyd Wright sport handsome shadows, but his work in glass and other translucent materials neatly fits his modernist dictum. “What the people of our country need most,” said Frank Lloyd Wright, “is beauty of environment.” He spent his life filling that need. In an age of breakneck industrialization, Wright drew on technological innovations to create works in glass, metal, and other media that transcended strict functionality.

Sometimes clearly representational, often purely geometric, these designs dance between figuration and abstraction. From magazine covers to altar screens, this calendar presents a selection of twenty-six Wright designs, reproduced on detachable postcards suitable for mailing.
