Theme:Competition, rivalry, contention
Unfortunately, last year failed due to pandemic coronavirus hold 5 (Jubilee) International Festival “ULYBKAMORYA”. But the city administration made a decision to combine the two themes of 2020 and 21 and release a combined catalog of the 5th and 6th international cartoon festival in Novorossiysk. Accordingly, the ceremony of awarding the winners – cartoonists in the declared nominations – was also combined.
Last year, we announced the main theme “Journalist and Power” for the fifth anniversary festival of cartoons, and designated the additional theme as “Freedom of Speech”. What did you send to the festival?
We have received about 250 emails with works of cartoonists from 28 countries of the world. In total, 658 cartoons on the main and auxiliary themes were presented to the jury of the festival.
Most of the works were sent from IRAN, TURKEY and CHINA. And this, of course, is not accidental either. There are special reasons for this. We also note the increased number of works that are very witty and laconic, despite the different mentality of the EAST and WEST. Nationalities, statehood, climatic conditions and living standards are different, and the problems in communities are very similar. The confrontation between the authorities and journalists is aggravated, giving rise to the LEGALITY of speech.
This year the theme “COMPETITION” was announced. As you know, the manifestations of this concept are very multifaceted and are not limited to the economic sphere only. Therefore, the organizers hope for a very broad interpretation of the word in all its senses.
We expect cartoons for the 6th festival in 2021 until August 15th.
And we hope for the irony, satire and sparkling wit inherent in artists – cartoonists. After all, a caricature is one of the forms of free artistic thinking in our contradictory and extremely politicized time …
