Thirteenth International Biennial of Cartooning,
Masters of Cartooning,
Plovdiv 2025

Theme: Wine and Love, Love and Wine 
The theme of this edition focuses on the eternal connection between wine and love – an extraordinary couple that time cannot destroy. Wine is often called the “nectar of the gods”, and love – the “elixir of the soul”, which emphasizes their power to inspire, create and unite. 
Wine and love are dizzying, intoxicating and turn life into a brighter and more exciting experience, leaving their bittersweet aftertaste. They invite us to enjoy the moment, to find the balance between passion and wisdom and to laugh at their unpredictability. 
This theme allows authors to interpret with a sense of humor and a creative eye the relationship between these two concepts – from romance and passion to irony and the comic aspects of life. 
We are waiting for your works, which through caricature will capture the magic of wine and love, combined in a unique creative experience!
