Hi artist Yasser Ahmad
Above all I want to tell you that I respect you as much a great artist and I want to tell you
that I love your ideas and your way of drawing and I ask you to excuse me
if I have trouble doing by my statement.
But I want to clarify once again that my drawing was the first to be published on the site.
it is easily verifiable as you can see the historic site. Now if the similarity was proved at the time of selection,
the jury needed to remedy this situation by cancelling outright or two drawings by another procedure.
In doing so this incident does not affect my respect for you as great artist Ahmad Yasser expensive and
for all Syrian artists that I admire very much and good continuation.

IKINCILIK KAZANAN ALI BULCA’NIN KARIKATÜRÜNÜ IPTALINE ILISKIN
ANADOLU KARIKATÜRCÜLER DERNEGI’NIN DUYURUSU:
25.05.2008 tarihinde toplanan dernegimizin yonetim kurulu, son gunlerde karikatur gundemini mesgul eden ‘Akdeniz karikatur yarismasi’nin odul iptal karari hakkinda bir aciklama yapma karari almistir.
Bildiginiz uzere, onemli bir karikatur yarismasinin jurisinde yer alan karikatur dunyamizin degerli sanatcilari, kendi sectikleri 1. ve 2.lik odulu alan iki karikaturun benzerlik tasimasini, kopya imasi ile yine kendi kararlari ile iptal etmislerdir. Ilk olarak ciddi bir kuruma yakismayan bu davranisi, Anadolu Karikaturculer Dernegi olarak siddetle kinadigimizi aciklamakta fayda goruyoruz.
Hic bir yarisma jurisinin, kendi hatalarini duzeltmek adina, insanlari tohmet altinda birakacak aciklamalar yaparak, kamu oyunda yanlis bir bilinc yaratma hakki olmadigina inaniyoruz. Ozellikle konu ‘kopya karikatur’ gibi ucu acik ve hassas bir konuysa, biliyoruz ki gunumuz iletisim dunyasinda insanlara atilan camurlarin izinin temizlenmesi, o camuru atmak kadar kolay degildir.
Sonuc olarak, bu gibi durumlarin ulkemizde bir kez daha yasanmamasi adina, yarismalarda gorev alan tum juri uyelerini, aldiklari kararlarin arkasinda durabilecek kadar dikkatli calismaya davet ediyor, yaptiklari gorevin ne kadar onem arzettigini
bir kez daha vurgulamak istiyoruz.
Uyemiz Ali Bulca’nin sonuna kadar arkasinda oldugumuzu, kendisinin basarilarina yenilerini ekleyerek karikatur hayatina devam edecegini ve gecen zamanin yapilan bu buyuk haksizligi gozler onune serecegine olan inancimizi tum karikatur camiasiyla paylasiriz.Sevgi ve saygilarimizla…
ANADOLU KARIKATURCULER DERNEGI YONETIM KURULU
DON QUICHOTTE KARIKATÜR KOMISYONU ÜYESI OGUZ GÜREL’IN YANITI:
Saniyorum uzun yillar daha tartisilacak olan kopya karikatur-benzer karikatur-calinti karikatur konusunda alinacak hayli yol var daha.. Benzer-calinti – taklit – kopya konusula konusula oyle bir hale geldi ki sanki tum bu kavramlar ayni seyler..
Anadolu Karikaturculer Dernegi’nin uyesi Ali Bulca nin arkasinda durmasi goze hosgelse de
one surdugu gerekceler pek oyle degil..
temel konulari ele
Ucu acik kavramini ben kendi sanatsal olculerimde pek kullanmam..
olaylara bakisi kesinlikle 10-15 sene önceki gibi olmamali..
basin aciklamasi yapan bir dernek..
Buyrun tercih sizin….
uc-kose-dortgen-eskenar da elimizde kalmaz..
