Laura Salafia created this illustration for the LA Times awards magazine, The Envelope, for an article by Chris Vognar titled, “Two giant films poke at our current society. Is it on purpose?” The article centers around two current movies: Gladiator II and Wicked. Chris Vognar writes: A strongman ruler practices the fine political art of divide and conquer, insisting on loyalty at all costs. Except he says the quiet part out loud: ‘The best way to bring folks together is to give them a good enemy.” Vogner finds intriguing parallels between our current political landscape in the US with the movies Gladiator II and Wicked.

Dune: Part Two
Illustrator: Akiko Stehrenberger
www.akikomatic.com
“I wanted my ‘Dune: Part Two’ poster to be a part two to my first poster (second slide on Akiko’s IG), creating a seamless continuation the way the two films are. While the first film felt more quiet and suspenseful leading up to the second, Part Two had more destruction and action while introducing us to Feyd-Rautha, arch nemesis to Paul Atreides.” -Akiko Stehrenberger

Illustration for The Weekend Essay
Writing as Transformation: Words and phrases came from nowhere; I rarely had any sense of what they meant or to what context they belonged.

Art Director: Nicholas Konrad
“If you make things without knowing who or what is moving your hand and you've never had the privilege of reading Louise Glück, please consider this essay (or have your friend with a subscription export you a PDF?). She's a joy, and like with sculpture, you have to walk all the way around each piece to see how her forms fit together. With even more authority since she's left us to our busy lives, Glück seems almost able to prove that art can save us from the voices that harangue us, as surely as the act of making art is a secret communion.” -Wesley Allsbrook
