Steve Brodner’s “The Naked Campaign”

Steve Brodner, born 1954 in Brooklyn, New York, is a satirical illustrator and caricaturist, known primarily for his work regarding the American political arena. His published output extends back to the mid-1970s, and includes a great number of thoroughly detailed drawings which make substantial use of visual metaphor. Much of Brodner’s work has been done for left-wing publications such as The Village Voice and Mother Jones. His illustrations have also appeared in the The Chronicle Review, the New York Times, Esquire, Time, Newsweek, Spy, Playboy, Premiere, Harper’s, the Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, the Nation, and the New Yorker.

The New Yorker has published a series of his short videos named “The Naked Campaign” in which he draws the Presidential candidates and discusses the race for the White House.
