2012 Nihilism Calendar
Celebrating
The
Faces of God
This year, the Nihilism Calendar celebrates the variety of God's faces. “Ever wonder what God looks like? Of course not. So it made sense to feature the all-powerful one as represented in popular culture in this year's Nihilism Calendar. And what would make a better Christmas gift for that special someone?” said Nihilist Press CEO, Elisha Shapiro.
Featured in the all new 2012 Nihilism Calendar are all the gruesome, violent and just plain funny events that shock us every day in the newspaper. The Nihilism Calendar combines irreverent humor, grotesque and curious dates of significance, demented press clippings and peculiar snapshots, all of which celebrate reality as nihilists like to see it.
This calendar is part of Elisha Shapiro's ongoing conceptual art exploration of Nihilism. Shapiro, a Los Angeles-based conceptual artist, is known for his 1984 Nihilist Olympics, his 2006 Nihilist Party Campaign for Governor of California, and his 1988 Presidential campaign.Elisha Shapiro began publishing his Nihilism Calendar in 1980. For many years it was only available in a few Los Angeles bookstores and galleries. It was sought after by many who appreciated Shapiro's unusual work. It is now available directly from the Nihilist Press by mailing $12.95 to PO Box 36422, Los Angeles, CA 90036, or by going to the Nihilists’ Corner website (www.nihilists.net) where Paypal is accepted. For shipping out of the U.S., please add $3.
