SAN JOSE, Calif. /Business Wire/ — Legendary artist Peter Max has always been at the forefront of art media. His posters, magazine covers, and art products have captured the imagination of several generations. Now, the artist is releasing two apps that consumers can download at the iTunes AppStore — developed by MobileAppWorks.

“The Peter Max Birthdays” offers dazzling, multi-colored, unique images for each day of the calendar year, no two alike. A Peter Max calendar will allow users to select and send these unique eCards for birthdays, wedding anniversaries, graduations, invitations to events, and other date-specific occasions.

“The Peter Max eCard Gallery” offers 20 Max eCards with the artist’s iconic imagery, such as “Cosmic Jumpers,” “Sages,” “Angels,” “Zen Boats,” and “Stars & Planets.” App users can customize them for birthdays, invitations, anniversaries, holidays, and other special occasions.

“I have always loved to share my art and visions with many people — at museum shows, on posters, on a giant Woodstock stage and even on a Continental super jet,” said Max. “Now, thanks to Apple and MobileAppWorks, my art will be able to reach people on an even more personal level — on their iPhones and iPod touches.”

Chris Stocker, MobileAppWorks CEO, agrees. “This is a project I’m especially pleased with. Peter is one of the most beloved artists alive today. The whimsical spirit of his work helped define the ideals of a generation — ideals of peace, understanding and tolerance that still resonate strongly today. I wanted to help Peter continue spreading his inspirational message through mobile technology.”
