Third International Trumpism Cartoon and Caricature Contest
Skip to comments
The winners of the 3rd International Trumpism Cartoon and Caricature Contest have been announced. The competition is based in Iran and consisted of two categories: “Political Cartoons” and “Caricature of Trump”
“This artistic competition, featuring participants from 68 countries across five continents, proves once again that cartoons and caricatures remain one of the most effective cultural weapons to challenge hegemonic powers and behaviors that threaten global peace,” Shojai Tabatabai [secretary of the contest] stated.
In the “Trump Caricature” section, Hadi Asadi from Iran claimed the first prize, followed by Eden Rodriguez from Germany and Antonio Santos from Portugal.
In the “Political Cartoon” category, Marcus from Brazil took the top spot, with Asier Sanz from Spain and Alireza Zakeri from Iran securing second and third places, respectively.
The first and second contests took place in 2017 and 2019.
The Tehran Times piece linked above was fairly forthright with some political bias. The winning cartoons themselves can be seen on more politically oriented (virulently anti-Trump and anti-Netanyahu) editorial cartoon sites.
Unfortunately, the contest schedule was disrupted by two periods of war and military aggression imposed on Iran, resulting from the actions and policies supported by Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. These extraordinary circumstances created significant challenges and inevitably affected the timeline of the event.
The IranCartoon site lists and shows all the winners.
