The international cartoon contest named in honour of Rudiy Panko
The international cartoon contest named in honour of Rudiy Panko
(a beekeeper from a farm near Dikanka)
Each kind author will react : "What's this? A contest named in honour of a beekeeper? They threw an internatinoal contest for the sake of a beekeeper? Thank God! They haven't plucked enough geese and they haven't wasted enough rags for paper yet! A few people of different ranks made their fingers inky!"
We are not going to argue with such a kind author. We will only remark that...
- in 2009 it will be 200 years since the birthday of N.V.Gogol, who made Rudiy Panko famous,
- In addition, since the times of Rudiy Panko we do not have such a brilliant narrator, who can describe all human wonders and fears,
- even N.V.Gogol himself wouldn't turn down a proposal to paint some caricatures of modern people and those that suck up to those in charge, if you don't mind us saying so,
- we ask you not to confuse our beekeeper with another famous beekeeper (ours is from Dikanka, and that man is from another place).
So we have such an egg-flip (gogol-mogol), ladies and gentlemen! The theme of the contest is "Gogol-mogol (egg-flip) 2009"
N.V.Gogol himself will help you to know which stories, wonders and fears you should paint:
"The soil is great! And the harvest was always wonderful; but in the bewitched place there was never anything good. They sow the seeds correctly, but something incomprehensible grew: maybe a watermelon or maybe not, maybe a pumpkin or maybe not, may be a cucumber or maybe not...the devil only knows!
For the kind authors we will explain - you should paint our modern life, but don't forget N.V.Gogol - his characters stay alive even nowadays!

Theme for the Competition: The wheel rolls on
Brief: How long can our planet feed in to all our living needs? We have been thanklessly exploiting the mother of all resources for such mundane acts as driving to a shop just around the corner to buy groceries instead of helping ourselves with a short walk.
With so much exploitation already done in digging and boring our planet (the wheel of our survival) for its energy resources, we have punctured our own prospects of continuing the journey of human kind as long as possible.
It's time to think of alternative energy sources, efficient means to control fuel usage, rethink transportation be it by road, by air, by water or into space to conserve energy. Reduce pollution and other ill effects of transportation. It’s also time to think about efficient ways to optimize the usage of personal vehicles, by taking car/bike holidays, by encouraging mass transportation systems and by bicycling to as many needs as possible.

1st INTERNATIONAL PATIO BRAZIL HUMOR SALOON ON THE ENVIRONMENT
1st INTERNATIONAL PATIO BRAZIL HUMOR SALOON ON THE ENVIRONMENT
Regulations
I – THE THEME
Global warming is currently categorized as one of the greatest threats to life. Within the last decades, this phenomenon has been causing an increase in the average temperature
on the surface of the earth, announcing the escalating condition of the greenhouse effect that is destabilizing the energy balance of the planet.
The greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide (CO2), methanal (CH4), nitrate oxide (N2O), CFC´s (CFxClx) absorb ultared radiation emitted by the earth’s surface, which then radiates
energy that is absorbed by the earth’s surface again, consequently getting hotter, and when in excess, is damaging. Therefore, the excess of gases responsible for the greenhouse
effect, initiates a phenomenon known as global warming.
The proposal for the Eco Cartoon is a warning for life! The cartoonists will have the challenge of showing the risk that the planet and humanity are running. They are, therefore,
invited to create an illustration that depicts global warming and alerts society to the seriousness of the problem.
II - FROM THE 1st International Patio Brazil HUMOR SALOON on the Environment – ECO CARTOON
It is a competitive exhibition, of cartoon humor, where the main objective is to cause one to reflect on the global warming theme and quality of life. The tools to be used are charges,
cartoons, caricatures and comic strips on the theme: Global Warming.
III – THOSE COMPETING
a) Graphic artists in general can compete, be they amateures or professionals, Brazilian or foreigners;
b) Each artist can participate entering up to 2 (two) unpublished pieces of work, be it charge, cartoon, caricature or comic strips.
c) The standard size of each piece of work would be 30 X 40 cm (horizontal or vertical);
d) Each piece of work should be sent in the appropriate packaging, freeing the organizers of the event from the responsibility of any damages caused to the project during shipping;
e) No work will be accepted via CD or internet;
f) The participants that send more than 2 (two) projects, as well as those who are directly involved in the process of the event will be excluded from participating in this campaign.
IV – THE DESTINATION AND USE OF THE WORKS OF ART

Regulations
I – THE THEMEGlobal warming is currently categorized as one of the greatest threats to life. Within the last decades, this phenomenon has been causing an increase in the average temperature
on the surface of the earth, announcing the escalating condition of the greenhouse effect that is destabilizing the energy balance of the planet.
The greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide (CO2), methanal (CH4), nitrate oxide (N2O), CFC´s (CFxClx) absorb ultared radiation emitted by the earth’s surface, which then radiates
energy that is absorbed by the earth’s surface again, consequently getting hotter, and when in excess, is damaging. Therefore, the excess of gases responsible for the greenhouse
effect, initiates a phenomenon known as global warming.
The proposal for the Eco Cartoon is a warning for life! The cartoonists will have the challenge of showing the risk that the planet and humanity are running. They are, therefore,
invited to create an illustration that depicts global warming and alerts society to the seriousness of the problem.
