LSMDK “Debut” in Zielona Góra.
Sport is an integral part of social life, and a means of conveying many ideas, such as: noble competition, striving for perfection, overcoming one’s weakness, or crossing boundaries that no one has crossed yet. In modern societies, sportspersons are models to emulate, icons of success, celebrities – primarily because they are identified with the ideas that encapsulate the essence of sport.
Football is one of the most popular sport disciplines, an encounter of two teams that provokes incredibly powerful emotions. On the pitch, we have the opportunity to observe various attitudes, from those noblest to those amazingly brutal and reprehensible. Fans and players experience the joy of victory or taste the bitterness of defeat. Emotions, euphoria, despair can be unbelievably strong.
The organisers of the Competition hope to see artists’ reflections on the role of football in social life, its lights and shadows, laughter and tears, the emotions aroused by the leather ball with a pattern of black-and –white pentagons... Who else but the cartoonists could and should comment upon, and commemorate, this discipline of human activity.
1. The topic of the International Cartoon Competition “The Ball is in Play” is football. The Competition is organised to mark the UEFA European Football Championship – Euro 2012, held in Poland and Ukraine.
