When he was invited to create a mural at the Joan Miró Foundation in 2010, the American illustrator Brian Rea was working full-time as an art director for the opinion section of the New York Times, a stressful job that caused him a lot of anxiety. A compulsive list-maker, Rea had started writing down in his diary all the things that caused him stress with the goal of reducing his anxiety. The list grew and grew until Rea had the idea of turning it into one of the murals to paint at the Joan Miró Foundation, the piece Fears. “It was a wall of words, and I remember how the public looked at it and how they reacted,” explains Rea. “People crying, people laughing, people pointing at parts of it. As an illustrator, you don't have much contact with your audience. Yes, someone would tell me once in a while that they liked a drawing of mine, and that was it. So seeing people's reactions in real time was very important to me. But, at the end of the day, it was a text-based work, and I decided to work on achieving that level of emotional resonance in my visual works.”

On newsstands around the world this Tuesday the following headline could be read: "Separatists a Headache for Spain, Even From Jail". It is the front page of the New York Times, which dedicates one of the six main news items of the day to the president of Òmnium, Jordi Cuixart. On the inside pages, the three-paragraph box on the front page becomes an extensive interview with Cuixart in Lledoners prison. The headline asks: "Criminal or martyr? Prisoner Poses a Political Dilemma for Spain". And, in fact, Cuixart does not stop wondering aloud questions that can give an answer to his future: "At some point, Spain will have to ask itself: what do they want to do with me? Eliminate me? They can't," he concludes. Thus ends a report that reviews Cuixart's origins as well as the evolution of the Independence bid.
