The International Cartoonists Club CARTUNION invites cartoonists from around the world to take part in
the contest "We are electing."

The election – is not only a formal democratic procedure, but also a great chance to explore the human nature.

Here, at the polling station, you have a chance to watch the clash of amazing characters, to
observe the cowardice and desperate insolence on one side and the civic courage of the other.

In other words, the election is the perfect reason for artists-satirists to roll up their sleeves and take up a pencil or a
computer mouse.

The rules of the contest:

1. Works should be sent electronically to the following address: cartoongallery@gmail.com
2. Picture format: A3, jpg or gif. The resolution should be
sufficient for high quality printing (at least 300 dpi).
3. Deadlines for sending: February 15, 2012
4. The authors of the three best works will be awarded with the Honorary Diploma of the International Cartoonists Club.
5. The organizers reserve the right to publish the submitted drawings
without monetary compensation.
6. Selected works will be presented on the CARTUNION site:
http://www.cartoon-expo.com/. We are also planning the traveling exhibition of the best works.

FNA Invites World Cartoonists to Int’l Wall Street Downfall Cartoon Festival

TEHRAN (FNA)- Fars News Agency plans to hold an international cartoon festival on the Occupy Wall Street movement in a bid to help people in the United States take their message out to the world.
Despite the attempts made by the US media and statesmen to portray it as an unimportant development, the Anti-Capitalism Occupy Wall Street Movement has gradually grown so wide that it cannot be harnessed by the US administration any more. Now the US administration can suppress people by the help of its security forces, but it no doubt will be unable to root out this movement, and one day, the roots of this movement will grow so deep and so wide that it will topple the West’s and the United States’ capitalist system.

A way to help the Occupy Wall Street Protests stay alive is releasing artworks, specially cartoons and satirical works, around this movement. Cartoonists can portray their critical and vigilant views in one work through their artistic delicacy and present it to thousands, meaning that the message carried by hours of speech or lengthy pages of an article can be presented to people in one single picture.

‘The International Cartoon Festival of Wall Street Downfall’ is an opportunity for artists from around the world to display their works in support of the American and European protesters and all others who have been victimized by poverty, corruption and discrimination.

Festival Topic:
The Anti-Capitalism Occupy Wall Street Movement

Conditions:
Each participant can send a maximum number of 7 works

Please attach your name and surname, postal address, contact numbers and E-mail in a file in Word Format to your works.

All works should be 1500 pixels (200 dpi) in length and width at minimum

All participants will be presented with a copy of the Festival’s Book of Selected Artworks

Winners Prize:

Top Artist Prize: 5000 euro + diploma and festival statue
Second Winner:4000 euro + diploma and festival statue
Third Winner: 3000 euro + diploma and festival statue
4th to 10th Winners: Each 500 euro + diploma and festival statue
Diplomas for 70 finalists
And
A Special Prize, including 500 euro, for the selected artist from the viewpoint of our internet visitors

Deadline: 20 January, 2012
