For three years now, the Black Matter publishing house and the Risography Studio Herr & Frau Rio have been publishing colourful calendars presenting the work of changing artists from the fields of graphics and illustration, sculpture and painting. After humorous meat and cheese calendars, the theme of this year’s Everyday Ornaments Calendar is on ornaments that provide a personal glimpse of each designer’s culture and which inspire their creative work.
Essence and excess. Political and private. Romantic and radical. Edgy and Old school. Everything next to each other. A festival of diversity. The ornament is a time capsule of our society and culture, a snapshot of artistic forms of expression and working methods. And whenever times change, artists create new images and symbols that accompany this change.
The result is two calendars, an annual calendar with 12 changing motifs and a 3-month calendar with 4 different motifs + cover. Printed in 2 colours on the risograph, the calendars are a real eye-catcher, which you can enjoy for a whole year!
