Yılmaz Güney Culture & Art Festival - Turkey

YILMAZ GUNEY CULTURE AND ART FESTIVAL
CARICATURE CONTEST
A caricature contest is organized along with short film, drama, short story, poetry, music, painting and folkloric dances contests by Yüz Çiçek Açsın Culture Center and Demokratik Gençlik Hareketi (Democratic Youth Movement) in the context of Yilmaz Guney Culture and Art Festival, whose final is to be realized in Istanbul on Sunday 27th of January 2007. No competitive concept as to pass beyond or to go ahead is aimed but a concept to gather differing opinions or art concepts and to share it with people at the contests to be held in the context of the festival. In those days where we cannot tolerate our differing opinions and we perceive them as antagonisme, it is more significant and important to create a collective consciousness standing for goodness and beauty... Therefore our aim is not to have participants in a race and to award them but to promote and contribute to the beauty.
1-The contest is open to everybody without any distinctions.
2-The subject and technique to be submitted to the contest is free. In the context of spiritual form - collectivist, progressionist, critical, realistic and innovative values, which became concrete in the movies of Yılmaz Güney and which are already at the core of the caricature shall be particularly appraised.
3-The caricatures sent must be originals (digital prints are also accepted provided they are signed by hand) and they should not have received any award in any previous contests.
4-The participants are free to send as many works as they prefer.
5-The caricatures to be sent must not exceed A3 (29.7 x 42 cm) format.
6-The name, surname, address, telephone number, e-mail address and for participants younger than 18 years old the age of the artist must be written at the back of the caricatures.
7-A short autobiography and a photograph must be sent together with the caricatures.
8-Award winning and worth of exhibiting caricatures shall be published in the festival book, which shall be sent to the owner of the work.
9-The exhibition of the contest shall be realized in a place to be announced later.

2nd Cartoon Competition - Çorum / Turkey

ÇORUM JOURNALISTS’ ASSOCIATION 2nd Cartoon Competition
Theme: Are we going to burn or freeze?
Aim: Our world is getting polluted rapidly from many sides for the last two hundred years. The gases come out of the factories’ and houses’ chimneys and of the exhaust of the motor vehicles –having increased rapidly after the Industrial Revolution – are causing the climate changes which have never seen before since the Ice Age, which was millions of years ago. The regression of gradually melting glaciers to the polars and the loss of ice cap on high mountains, the rise of sea level, the migration of plant & fish species, the decrease in the number of bird species because of the air pollution, the rapid growth of the annual rings in trees are, of course, the indicators of rapidly warming in the earth.
However, the meteorologists are talking about the probability of shutdown of the Gulf Stream warm water current, which is transporting the warm sea water from the equator to the western Europe, because of the melting of the North Pole glaciers; and finally, the possibility of a new ice age in Northwest Europe at the end. In other words, the global warming can bring our world to a new ice age at the end. It is uncertain/indefinite whether we’re going to burn or freeze as a result of the global climate change.
Arranging the second cartoon competition, Çorum Journalists’ Association aims to reflect the effects of the global climate change on natural world under the title of “Are we going to burn or freeze?” with the universal language of cartoons.
