Internatio​nal Cartoon Competitio​n "Can you believe it?!"

International Cartoon Competition presented by the Arts and Cultural Center KuK e.V. in cooperation with the Aachen Newspaper Publishing Company and the Städteregion Aachen.
Call for Submissions
Can you believe it?!
They say Mr zu G. actually wrote a part of his dissertation himself! Mr Ch. W. himself paid for and planted a rose bush in his garden. Or maybe not? The Felix Krulls, Münchhausens and two-faced hypocrites populate the parliaments of this world – and this is no new phenomenon.
The list of politician lies seems long. Didn't George W. Bush say: "Iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction"? Who believed Walter Ulbricht when he said "No one intends to erect a wall"? Did anyone believe Bill Clinton's statement: "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinski"? Didn't the Hungarian Prime Minister admit that he lied to the people morning, noon and night during the election campaign? Shouldn't Putin's and Berlusconi's noses be infinitely long?
Does what was promised before the election still hold afterwards? Why should it? Is Truth a rare good in politics? Or is the lie in itself taken for granted in politics? And if not, then why not?
Telling lies in politics is a broad field – but it is also a humorous field, which is why we have chosen it to be the theme of our 6th International Cartoon Competition.
How can light be brought into the darkness of the politician's lie? Who can uncover, debunk, explain? Isn't it all laughable?
The cartoonists and caricaturists of the world are called up to do "enlightenment work". Wanted are the funniest cartoons, the sharpest caricatures and gladly also those critical drawings of and about lying politicians and about Truth in politics.
