A recent discussion with a friend working in Havana Cuba alerted me to
the fact that art materials are expensive and hard to access on the
island mostly due to the illegal embargo imposed by the USA. the USA,
only 145 kilometers away, does not allow shipments of any packages to
Cuba. This is ridiculous and an outrage.

I’ve created a forum where, hopefully, our brother and sister
cartoonists can let us know what supplies they might need. Within
reason, if any of us can help, I’m sure each of us can send some item
within our means.

The forum can be found here:

I hope anyone interested will join me in this effort

Exhibition was opend by Marina Pejic, psychology graduate in Osijek. Exhibition was special in lots of ways: insted of performance whe have made a tree of wires, old computer, and put real leaves on it. We wanted to show how harmfully it can be for ecology when we carelessly use tehnicaly developed machines, devices, equipment, installations. On the other hand we wanted to show how we have accustom on artificially instead to fight for the preservation and protection of natural!!

I just want to thanks everyone that was include in this project!

It wouldnt be same without you!

Karikatur Haber’de ”Eseriniz Euro 2008’de sergilenebilir” duyurusunu uzulerek okudum.
Orada adi gecen Nike firmasi cesitli uluslararasi insan haklari orgutlerince,
basta Cin olmak uzere cesitli Asya ulkelerindeki fabrikalarinda kucuk yasta cocuklarin
yok denilecek ucretlerle calistirmasi konusunda yillardir adim atmamis bir firmadir, diye biliyorum.
Ekte gonderdigim calismam, bu konuda bir seri yazi dizisi yapan bir Ingiliz gazetesinde
(London Review) 1996 yilinda yayinlanmisti.
Hakkinda bu cesit sahibeler olan bir firmanin Euro 2008’deki bu faaliyetine
bir karikatur cizeri olarak katilmak istemem dogrusu.
Bilginize sunuyorum.
