VIRTUAL PROGRAM

Politics and the Pen: An Evening with Visual Journalist Victor Juhasz

Ring in the upcoming U.S. presidential election season with the provocative and influential art of award-winning political illustrator and visual journalist Victor Juhasz. Imbued with a unique blend of wit and acerbic, laser-like vision, his influential art takes a hard and often humorous look at American society, politics, and the antics of national and world leaders.

Juhasz’s caricatures and illustrations have been commissioned by major magazines, newspapers, advertising agencies, and book publishers, including TIME Inc., Newsweek, The National Observer, The Wall Street Journal, Rolling Stone, Esquire, GQ, Men’s Journal, The Village Voice, The Washington Post, Oxford University Press, Harper Collins, St. Martin’s Press, Proctor & Gamble, and many more. In the tradition of combat illustrators that can be traced back to the Civil War, Juhasz has taken an active role in documenting the U.S. Military in theater as well as in training. His parody of Norman Rockwell’s Saturday Evening Post cover The Runaway, for the Village Voice, is part of the permanent collection of the Norman Rockwell Museum.
