description: Over the course of 13 controversial issues, influential designer Tibor Kalman (1949-1999) used his position as Editor in Chief of the international magazine Colors to challenge the status quo. Through a highly visual language, he creatively explored the world's problems--racism, AIDS--and preoccupations--sports, shopping--to propel social change. That Colors was sponsored by the Benetton clothing company made the media experiment all the more intriguing. Following the success of Tibor's un(Fashion) , this visually powerful book features spreads from each issue and reproduces in full a facsimile of the word-free 13th and final Colors . Kalman's previously unpublished notes and sketches, plus commentary by his partner, Maira, complete the collection.
