On October 15th, in cooperation with the Schule des Ungehorsams (“School of Disobedience”), the international cartoon award “Kaktus” was presented for the second time. Over 1,200 solutions to international, local, or personal issues were submitted by nearly 500 artists from around the world on the theme “The Solution.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

“The theme \u2018The Solution\u2019 addresses a juridical \u2013 and at the same time humoristic \u2013 core competence. Both assess conflicts from an independent distance \u2013 and resolve them in their own way: The law resolves them with judgment, the caricature dissolves them into laughter through humor.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Law & caricature: lawyer\u2019s choice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    “Caricature and law stand in a tension-filled relationship: Caricatures explore the freedom of expression and of art \u2013 up to the limits set by law. They challenge the law and at the same time need its protection in order to be able to fully unfold their \u2013 and our \u2013 freedom.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
