RULES
of PARTICIPATION to the
2016
INTERNATIONAL CARTOON COMPETITION with the theme
"LET'S
ELIMINATE the BARRIERS"
to be
realized within the context of
2016
INTERNATIONAL ACCESSIBLE İZMİR CONGRESS
1.
OBJECTIVE: Izmir Metropolitan
Municipality, departing with the goal to be the pioneer of accessible life, is
organizing the "International Congress of People with Disabilities' Urban
Issues and Their Solutions" between the dates November 2 - 5, 2016, for
the second time in Turkey. ACCESSIBLE IZMIR 2016, besides being a scientific
congress, also includes a variety of artistic, cultural and social activities
that will bring people with disabilities into view in the daily urban life. Accordingly,
a cartoon competition with the theme "LET'S ELIMINATE the BARRIERS"
will be held.
10% of the world's population
has a disability. They can't hear, can't see, can't walk and face multiple
barriers in social life. Many people with disabilities in the world are in need
of nursing, in comparison to the ones in developed countries. Most cannot
attend school and are devoid of any medical support. The discrimination they
are exposed to and the fact that they are ignored by society give cause for
them to live "invisible".
Izmir Metropolitan
Municipality, which started certain practices that lead people with
disabilities to enjoy the benefits of urban life more actively and opened the
first "Training and Culture Center for People with Disabilities" of Turkey,
now conveys the problems of people with disabilities to the public through this
international cartoon competition.
Hereby, we invite you to think
on their behalf. We wholeheartedly believe that the cartoonists, who enter the
competition, will make obstacles "visible" and create social
sensitivity as well as social consciousness with their cartoons.

El fotógrafo coruñés Román Montesinos en el Museo Provincial de Lugo por Francisco Puñal
El
fotógrafo coruñés Román Montesinos ha inaugurado en el Museo Provincial de Lugo
una nueva exposición intitulada “No le busques las tres patas al gato”,
compuesta por treinta imágenes donde relaciona objetos de forma sorpresiva, y
provoca gran asombro en los espectadores, con una carga de humor e ironía,
como es habitual en su obra. Estas metáforas visuales demuestran el
talento y poder creativo de su autor, en el que sus visiones nos
presentan un mundo de objetos, con presencia surrealista, que le imprime una
cierta connotación crítica, y rompe esquemas mentales.
Es una muestra para no perderse. Está en
la Sala Multiusos del Museo Provincial de Lugo. Praza da Soidade
s/n, en horario de lunes a viernes de 9.00 a 21.00; sábados de 10.30 a 14
h y de 16.30 a 20h, y domingos y festivos: 11 a 14 h.

Solidarity with Vilma Vargas !
Vilma was the victim of censorship in Ecuador precisely on the Day of Press Freedom !!https://www.facebook.com/
http://
https://www.facebook.com/
“I have never seen such a hostile environment . . . It is believed that an image is more dangerous than reality, so there has been a decision to stop cartoonists” — Vilma Vargas
VIOLENCIA DE GÉNERO EN ECUADOR by Vilma Vargas
Ecuadorian artist Vilma Vargas is protesting the censorship of an exhibition of her paintings and cartoons. The head of Ecuador’s government-funded cultural organization, theCasa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana (CCE), has refused to publish a catalogue to accompany the exhibition of 50 of Vargas’ works. The catalogue included reference to civil rights abuse by the government of President Raphael Correa. CCE Chairman Iván Petroff also prevented the titles and contextual information to be displayed alongside the pictures and paintings. The exhibit’s theme is Freedom of Expression/Freedom of Opinion. The video component planned for the exhibition, which included animations, was removed. The show — HUARMIcaturas, por la libertad — opened May 4, World Press Freedom Day. Ms. Vargas was informed that elements of the exhibit would be censored the day before.
In a Kafkaesque denial, the CCE claimed it prohibited background and contextual information from accompanying the artwork merely to prevent the exhibition from becoming “a forum for opinion and political criticism, thereby undermining the institutional mission and vision of the CCE to promote, support and sponsor the works and artists without any bias involving . . . political positions of any kind.”
Vilma Vargas has been producing political cartoons for 21 years, most recently for the newspaper Hoy, which folded two years ago under pressure from Ecuador’s repressiveCommunications Law. Last year, someone went to great effort to break into Ms. Vargas home, though nothing was taken. Ms. Vargas interpreted the break-in as a message of intimidation. Her cartoons often target the government of Ecuador’s President Raphael Correa.“Freedom of expression has not been censored in any way” — CCE official statement
Vilma Vargas exhibition “HUARMIcaturas, por la libertad” will be on display until May 31 at the People’s Hall of the CCE, Núcleo del Azuay. Cultural Agency Censors Cartoonist/Painter Vilma Vargas In Ecuador
