More Cartoons

Paula Joana and I, went to the cartoon exhibition at Caixa Geral de Depositos.
The number of cartoons on display was not impressive. The atrium of the building was badly used. With a mixture of cartoons and themes without any coherent coordination. None the less, some of the cartoons were very good, and the majority had a common theme or title that aloud us to identify them.
The main subjects were:
Globalization;
Racial discrimination;
Franchising;
Weather and end of natural resources;
Socio-economic differences;
Religion;
New technologies.

Some of the artists were quite good, and we all agreed that Tommy Thomdean and Ernani Cousandier were our favourites.

The virtual cartoon link you posted was interesting. I really hope you can get to see the Rossio exhibition! I think this is quite a special opportunity. Do report back!
