To mark the magazine’s ninety-seventh anniversary, the cover artists Kadir Nelson and Malika Favre will join its art editor, Françoise Mouly, to discuss the creation of some of The New Yorker’s most memorable covers, including their own, and how the covers reflect changing racial, gender, and cultural mores. Nelson’s covers include “Say Their Names,” depicting George Floyd and other victims of American racial violence, and “Madiba,” which honored the anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela after his death. Favre’s work for the magazine includes “Operating Theatre,” a cover that inspired replica photos by women surgeons around the world, and “The Butterfly Effect,” for the 2018 Anniversary Issue, which featured Eustace Tilley, the dandy who appeared on the magazine’s first issue, reimagined as a Black woman.
We look back on the most iconic Montreux Jazz Festival posters designed since 1967, from Camille Walala to David Bowie, Andy Warhol, Keith Haring and Sylvie Fleury.
