I too use homebrew for installing packages but imagemagick stopped working after upgrading OSX 10.8 to 10.9 (Mavericks). I had to do the following steps:

brew uninstall libtool
brew install libtool --universal
brew install imagemagick --build-from-source

Why the --build-from-source? Well for me running brew install imagemagick on its own to install the pre-built binary wasn't sufficient; it fixed the original 'dyln' error but was replaced with:

unable to load module `/usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/6.8.7-7/lib/ImageMagick//modules-Q16/coders/png.la': file not found @ error/module.c/OpenModule/1277
