Portocartoon 2012

The times of "crisis" are not democratic.
Inequality increases, even if solidarity is not decreasing.
Only humor can bring order to the world!
Therein is the reason for the proposed theme for the PortoCartoon 2012:
“The rich, the poor, the protester”.
It is hoped a “Tsunan of indignation”?
Are we looking for new kinds of democracy?
We shall see.
But the clues are released to the excellence of the universal humour.
These are challenges for the cartoonists’ pencils.
*
The jury (chaired by George Wolinski) will choose the best works for PortoCartoon 2012!
The opportunity reinforces our wishes of a Happy New Year!
*
Come then storms of humour!
Be indignant dignifying the art!
Luís Humberto Marcos,
Director PortoCartoon

The World Gallery of Cartoons is the one and only manifestation of such provenance in Macedonia, the oldest in the Balkan and one of the most long-standing in the world. It was established back in 1969 by the newsroom of the magazine Osten, making artistic forms like cartoon, satiric drawing and comic strips available to the wider audience. The World Gallery of Cartoon through time has experienced different fortune – from being completely supported by the community and institutions, to transition inability to publish an annual edition. The reappearance of the World Gallery of Cartoon in the past few years was marked by personal engagement and enthusiasm by those who refusedto agree to its elimination and hence managed to sustain it at the pleasure of the community – domestic and international. Therefore, in Skopje and Macedonia, the wide open window to the world remained open, equally accommodating the wind and rain, the sun and moon. OSTEN remained to be the ray of light obstinately defying time…
