Sorel, Edward

Biography of Edward Sorel as compiled from the internet:

Edward Sorel, one of the founders of the Push Pin Studio (along with Milton Glaser and Seymour Chwast), is a regular contributor to The Atlantic and The New Yorker. Besides his 41 covers for the latter, his art has appeared on the covers of The Atlantic, Harpers, Fortune, Forbes, The Nation, Esquire, American Heritage and The New York Times Magazine. He has illustrated many children's books, three of which he also wrote. Unauthorized Portraits (Knopf 1997) is the most recent of several collections of his work.

In 1998 the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C., devoted several rooms to an exhibition of his caricatures. Other one-man shows include the Graham Gallery and the Davis and Langdale Gallery in New York City, the Susan Conway Gallery in Washington, D.C., the Art Institute of Boston, and Galerie Bartsch & Chariau in Munich, Germany. He is a recipient of the Augustus St. Gaudens Medal for Professional Achievement from The Cooper Union, the Hamilton King Award from The Society of Illustrators, the Page One Award from the Newspaper Guild, the Best in Illustration Award from the National Cartoonists Society, the George Polk Award for Satiric Drawing, and the "Karikaturpreis der deutschen Anwaltschaft" from the Wilhelm Busch Museum in Hanover, Germany. In 2001 the Art Directors Club of New York elected him to their Hall of Fame, the first cartoonist since John Held, Jr., to be so honored.

Rob here: I've long been a fan of Edward Sorel's artwork, ever since I became interested in illustration. Sorel is a master penman who also happens to have a combination of biting wit and satire. It also doesn't hurt that he's one of the best caricaturists to grace the pages of magazines, books and newspapers in the past 50 years. Edward Sorel is a genius technically and conceptually. It's quite thrilling to pick up some beautiful pieces by him.
