How scary must that time of been for the Max family. His family escaped Nazi Germany when he was one. He was born in Germany to Jewish parents. In doing some research for this post I found Peter Max’s early childhood to be very interesting. The stamp I mentioned above aligns with his other work as well. In your piece you mentioned that Max’s magazine covers had a similar look and were comparable to Max’s telephone book covers. I think the cover Max created is brilliant. Postal Service commemorating the 1974 World’s Fair. I’m not sure there is a similar medium today? Would it be the postage stamp? Peter Max did a stamp for the U.S. Getting an opportunity to do the cover for a New York City phone directory would have been an unbelievable opportunity for an artist. I grew up about an hour outside New York City in a small town called Hackettstown. In the Mid-1990s I still used telephone books as a prospecting tool for new business at my first job. They were a very important part of society and used frequently. I was born in the mid 1970s and grew up using telephone books. They all held the same characteristics, so it was easy to tell and recognize the artist behind the brush. The stylistic approach Max had on this cover was very similar to what he did with other magazine covers. Max’s experience with Satchidananda enabled a newfound connection within himself and his art. Not to mention, he created this after meeting Swami Satchidananda, a yoga master. There are very vibrant, solid colors and one can see that Max touched on the psychedelic art by the figures and the surrounding elements of plants and the sun’s rays. However, this piece on the cover undoubtedly demonstrates the use of pop art as well as some psychedelic art. In doing so, it allowed him to explore new directions in painting, ones with heavier brush strokes. They would say something along the lines of, “Hey Max, I got your yellow pages.” Max soon after moved out of the public eye and took a creative retreat. Max had become a true public figure upon appearing on tv but having his artwork on something so ubiquitous had people everywhere on the streets calling for him. His work was placed on their cover another two times, in 1973 and in 2001. These telephone books were distributed all around in the New York metropolitan area. So, what makes this one any different than the many created by Max? In 1970, Max’s art was on the cover of Manhattan Yellow Pages meaning millions of people saw it. Peter Max’s magazine covers were found everywhere.
