CARTOONS GALORE
Here are cartoons we
are passing off as today's because nothing much has changed
since they were first made.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As
seen from the South
The
cartoon exhibition featuring cartoons from Africa and Asia was
held many years ago - precisely in 1991, before Foolscap was
born - at the Culture Centre, Turku, Finland.
The exhibition was a runaway success, attracting thousands of
viewers. But as usual, media coverage (of the Third world kind)
of it was very poor. Thus, we promised ourselves that one day,
we will give it a fitting coverage, even if it means waiting
20 years!
As it turns out, we didn't have that long to wait - only 9 years!
Here, we reproduce a selection from three of the participants'
entries. In the next issue of
Foolscap, we will bring you reports of another major exhibition,
this time on African Comics and Cartoons, which showed at Artic
Comic Festival, Kemi, Finland.
