Independent, multivoiced, wicked, political, spiritual, sexual, achingly prosaic, and above all, serious. Plus funny. Which was exactly the point: to address the needs of the world - all parts of the globe - and wrap it up in one big blanket called Humanity. With Colors, Tibor Kalman shook out the contents of his brain and over the course of 6 years and 13 bilingual issues, he took on such topics as: food (and hunger), that finetuned organism called ecology, recreation, religion, AIDS, shopping, racism, royalty and assorted demi-gods, sports, travel, even heaven. For Kalman, the self-described "perverse optimist," Colors was about casting a net over all of humanity, warts and all. Its irreverence, its ability to raise hackles and continually question the status quo was not about knocking down people, but about raising the bar on tolerance and a humane way of living. It was, as he once said, about using graphic design as a medium "for telling the truth."
