7th International Cartoon Contest "La Ciudad de las Ideas" 2015, Mexico

ANNOUNCEMENT
7th INTERNATIONAL CARTOON CONTEST
INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF BRILLIANT MINDS “LA CIUDAD DE LAS IDEAS”
R U L E S
1. The contest is open to professional or amateur artists from anywhere in the world. You must be at least 18 to participate.
2. All work submitted must be completely original and unpublished. No entries can simultaneously participate in any other contest or event.
3. The idea to be developed as a cartoon is this year’s theme for La Ciudad de las Ideas Festival:
What’s the point?
Context:
We live in a world full of technology, where information is traveling at unimaginable speeds, where people and countries are connecting like never before in history. Ours is a world of impressive medical advancements, ever increasing knowledge about our own body, mind, and even psyche; of complex machines that have automated work systems in ways we only used to see in sci-fi movies. We have developed new technologies to obtain energy, to supply water and power to remote communities. Access to universities anywhere in the world is becoming a growing reality with training, diploma courses, masters and even doctorate programs available on line. Ours is a world in which public policy everywhere moves against discrimination and progresses slowly but relentlessly towards gender equality and equal rights for all. Today like never before human beings are understood as systemic entities integrating body mind and spirit, and all kinds of programs are being developed to enhance human growth.
Yes, there has been immeasurable progress that continues at this very moment in various parts of the world, but if that is the case, why do we still have war? Why is there still famine in several parts of the world? Why do so many human beings live in extreme poverty? Why is there exploitation of labor? And sexual exploitation? Why are there so many drugs? Why is basic education still unavailable to so many children? Why is there so much violence in streets? Why are entire populations devastated by curable disease? Why? Why? Why?
What’s the point?*
Give us your views on, or your answer to this question, (or even another question) in a cartoon. Entries will be judged, among other things, on the following: ability to approach the core theme of the contest, creativity and mastery of the technique(s) used in the creation of the cartoon you submit.
