John Krygier/Denis Wood: Ce N?est Pas Le Monde

PEN America

Below is new graphic analysis by John Krygier and Denis Wood. It appears in PEN America 15: Maps. Ce N’est Pas Le Monde A woman with long brown hair sits at a desk, looking at the camera, with an open laptop in front of her. Behind her, there is a window showing a room with desks and small Costa Rican flags. A group of young protesters march outdoors, holding signs and shouting. The signs call for free education and no cuts to university funding. The crowd appears passionate and determined, with trees and buildings in the background. A hand holding a remote control pointed at a TV screen displaying the Netflix logo, with small potted plants on either side of the television. A cartoon aardvark wearing round glasses and a yellow sweater waves with a smile. In the background, a bed, a green wall, yellow curtains, and a superhero dog poster evoke the cozy feel of banned book movies. A man stands in front of a blurred background, wearing a zipped jacket and checkered shirt. Red text at the bottom reads #FreeManuelDuran. The image is in black and white. Seven characters from American Gods, a standout in the world of banned book movies, pose with neon halo-like circles and glowing words above their heads, hands clasped against a dark background. The show’s title gleams at the bottom. Read more work from the latest issue of PEN America.
