“DEAR CHRISTIAN, WELCOME TO DQ CARTOON COMMITTEE”
Lieber Erdogan,
vielen Dank für die Informationen über DON QUICHOTTE und über Euere Aktivitäten.
Habe Dir nicht viele Zeichnungen zugeschickt, freue mich aber ganz besonders, dass sie denoch ein
Plätzchen in Deiner Publikation gefunden hatten.
Ich schätze viel die Rolle eines Vermittlers zwischen Kulturen und Mentalitäten und ich denke
Du machst einen verdammt guten Job.
So eine Brücke braucht man immer; ich freue mich, wenn ich sehe, wie viele Dich unterstützen.
Lass’ mich bitte auch dabei sein. Ich möchte mich an Euren Debatten beteiligen.
Ich freue mich alte Bekannte wieder zu treffen bin aber auch sehr neugierig Kontakte zur jungen
Zeichnergeneration zu knüpfen.
Ich schicke Dir hiermit Lebenslauf und Foto, für Deine “Kartei”. Ebenfalls eine Zeichnung, die zur Zeit in
Amadora (Lissabon) in einer Ausstellung zum Thema “Volljärgkeit” zu sehen ist.
Zum Thema SIMILARITY schicke ich anschließend paar “Archivmaterialien”.
Freundliche Grüße aus Mannheim (eigentlich auch nicht ganz weit entfernt…)
Christian Indus

Theme for the Competition
Health Via Technology
Brief:
In today’s world of touch-button technology, we’re gently reminded about the human frailty when we, or someone amongst near and dear ones have to pay a visit to the”Hospital”. An activity inherently associated with the physical well-being of the human body is now surmounted by the platitude of the machines that surround the process.
The days of ”healing-touch”, and an emphatic year of a neighbourhood physician are fast being replaced by the regular hum of a machine taking stock of your full body.
Scans, Monitors, reports, tests, x-rays, and more artifacts like these dominate the health landscape today. But this is not all that bad as it has also helped improve the quality of healthcare.
Now, this is the theme for the cartoon contest. The participants have to highlight the chasm and the charm created by the use of Technology to aid Health.
Awards and Acknowledgements
A jury will select the top 6 winning entries, the cartoonists will be granted a cash prize award of
• First prize Rs.25,000/- (Rs. Twenty five thousand only)
