Karikaturum international contest

Karikaturum is an international contest of ironic arts held once every two years.
There are two main categories:

• Cartoon - theme ’Beauty’
• Poster - theme ’The beauty will save the world’

Techniques: painting, graphics, printed graphics (etchings, lithography, xylograph and linocut), collage. 

The cartoons must be original, and the copyright remains to the participant. Photocopies, printouts and works sent by e-mail will not be evaluated. The works that have won awards earlier have to contain information where and when they were awarded. Both individuals and teams of artists can participate in the contest. Any number of works will be accepted from each cartoonist.

There is no entry fee.
