Ana Juan: a Valencian New Yorker
Ana Juan is a Valencian illustrator who has for several years been a prominent collaborator with the prestigious New Yorker magazine.
She has already designed 25 covers for them, the most recent of which, ‘Unheard,’ is one which shows a woman silenced, in reference to all the recent cases of sexual abuse by important men, especially in the USA.
The design shows a woman, whose lipstick takes the form of a hand muffling her voice.
Born in Valencia in 1961, a graduate of the Fine Arts Faculty at Valencia’s Polytechnic University in 1982, Ana won the Premio Nacional de Ilustración in 2010 as well as a Gold Medal from the Society of Newspaper Design.
Her cover illustrations have ‘covered’ such questions as the Twin Towers attack or the Charlie Hebdo assassinations.
