Yuri Ochakovsky was a great cartoonist who depicted the situation of mankind in modern times perfectly. I am deeply grieved to hear his decease. With my condolences to the family and the cartoon world.
Can't reach at the moment his excellent cartoons on New Technologies (Windows-faced man & Man playing with his robot-dog) awarded at Barakaldo in 2006 I think.
Ochakovsky was the Grand Prize winner in International Nasreddin Hodja Cartoon Contest (Turkey) in 1999 and the Jury member of the Contest in 2005.
The following info from a message by Andrey Feldshteyn is forwarded by Julian Pena-Pai:
