Emiliano Ponzi illustrated the cover of The Wit and Wisdom of Abraham Lincoln: An A-Z Compendium of Quotes from the Most Eloquent of American Presidents (Plume). The book, edited by Alex Ayres, includes the funniest and most profound sayings of the former President and proves that from his youth in pioneer-era Illinois to the embattled White House of the Civil War, Lincoln never lost his capacity for dry humor or his extraordinary gift for eloquence.

Magnet Reps is happy to announce that Ana Bagayan, Andrew Hem, Bella Pilar, Emiliano Ponzi, Marguerite Sauvage, Nate Williams and Raquel Aparicio have artwork in Illusive 3 (Gestalten Verlag). The book features over 200 illustrators scouted from around the globe and includes everything from fashion illustration to figurative painting, material application and deconstruction and collage.

Emiliano Ponzi illustrated for The Boston Globe’s review of Strength in What Remains: A Journey of Remembrance and Forgiveness by Tracy Kidder. The book tells the true story of Deogratias, a young Tutsi who fled genocide only to end up on the streets of New York. He delivers groceries 12 hours a day for far less then minimum wage and learns to speak English, eventually going on to graduate from Columbia University, then Dartmouth Medical School, finally returning home to open a clinic.

Emiliano Ponzi was invited by The New York Times’ Nicholas Blechman to contribute sketches to Sketchbook Obsessions. The show also includes the work of Josh Cochran, Jillian Tamaki, Mark Todd, Esther Pearl Watson and several other artists and art directors that regularly work for The New York Times. Each were asked to contribute their own personal ’sketchbook obsession,’ sharing the imagery and icons that repeatedly find their way into their sketchbooks. The show takes place on Thursday, July 16th, 2009 and an RSVP is required.
