"Jan van Toorn’s calendar for 1972/73, designed for the Dutch printer Mart.Spruijt, is one of the most extraordinary and provocative graphic artifacts of its era. The calendar proposed a new form of engagement for the graphic designer as a mediator and manipulator of photographic meaning."—Rick Poynor, "Jan van Toorn: The World in a Calendar" Design Observer, 05.23.12 https://designobserver.com/feature/jan-van-toorn-the-world-in-a-calendar/34388
