Marlena Agency, founded in New York in 1990, represents a diverse range of artists from around the world who can illustrate complex financial, political, and social concepts with as much ease as creating painterly murals or humorous animations. The Marlena artists have won gold and silver medals from the Society of Illustrators in New York and are regularly featured in Illustration Annuals of American Illustration and Communication Arts. Clients include the Guggenheim Museum, Wall Street Journal, Prada, The New Yorker, Lincoln Center, World Wildlife Fund, Nickelodeon, Apple, Google, and many others.
