TOPLUMSAL CINSIYET ESITLIGI KARIKATUR SERGISINE CAGRI
"Gulme" insanlari diger canlilardan ayiran en belirgin ozelliklerdendir. Agir olup molla sayilmanin bolca goruldugu ve "…kari gibi gulme!" nin bir kufur sayildigi bir alemde, mizahin aslinda derin bir dusuncenin urunu oldugu unutturulmaya calisilir. Oysa gulebildigimiz kadar insanizdir. Hala gulebildigimiz olcude kalbimiz sicaktir, hele de kendimize gulebilmek kibre karsi en iyi sifadir. Kahkaha ve mizah iste bu yuzden tarih boyunca bazen dinler tarafindan, bazen iktidarlarca yasaklanmis, korkutucu olmustur. Mizah, ayrintilara, doganin akisina ters olana dikkat ceken, aci gercekleri sekerle kaplayarak sunan cok onemli bir mecradir.
Elestirel dusuncenin, direnmenin, bas etmenin bir ifadesi olarak mizah ve bununla ortusen karikatur sanati toplumsal rollerimizi yeniden dusunmeye iten baska bir sanat alani.
Sergi ile toplumsal cinsiyet esitligi konusunda farkindalik yaratmak, konuyu yeniden tartisma gundemine tasimak, siyasal, ekonomik ve toplumsal alanin vazgecilmez bir parcasi ve hukmedilen bir alani olarak kadin sorununa bir de mizah gozuyle bakmak amaclanmaktadir.
8-18 Mayis 2015 tarihlerinde gerceklestirilecek Sergi, amator ve profesyonel tum karikatur sanatcilarinin katilimina aciktir.
Ucan Supurge ve Obur Mizah Karikatur Dergisi isbirligi ile gerceklestirilecek uluslararasi sergiye 1 Nisan 2015 Carsamba gunune kadar katilimlarinizi bekliyoruz.

18th FLYING BROOM INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S FILM FESTIVAL
CALL FOR CARTOON EXHIBITION OF GENDER EQUALITY
"Laughing" is one of the most significant features of humankind that distinguishes it from other species. In a world where being treated like a saint for being quiet is quite common and saying "…don’t laugh like a woman!" is a swearing, it is tried to make people forget that humour is actually the result of a deep thought. Yet, how much we laugh defines how "human" we are. Our hearts stay warm as we laugh and laughing to ourselves is the best cure for arrogance. That is why laughter and humour are considered to be threatening and get banned by religions and governments throughout history. Humour is an essential medium that points out details, what is unorthodox to nature’s course and illustrates bitter reality by covering it with sugar.
Humour, as an expression of critical thought, struggling, resisting and caricature matching up with this is another branch of art that leads us to think about our social roles.
Through the exhibition it is aimed to raise awareness on gender equality, get people discuss on this topic again, have a look at women issue, which is an essential part of political, economic and social life, by viewpoint of humour.
The exhibit which will be held on May 8th-18th 2015 is open for all amateur and professional caricaturists.
We are waiting for your attendance at this international exhibit until 1st of April, which will be carried out in cooperation with Flying Broom and Obur Humour.
