Theme: OUR EVERYDAY CROWDING
SECOND INTERNATIONAL CARICATURE EXHIBITION ZeGeBOOM!:
Our everyday crowd! (2022) – PROPOSALS AND APPLICATION FORM
After last year’s theme QUAKE, this year’s theme is CROWD (described more precisely and beautifully by Branka Hlevnjak):
OUR EVERYDAY CROWDING
Crowding is not only caused by people in narrow streets, in elevators, buses and trams.
The crowd is made by cars for a reason and for no apparent reason.
It’s crowded on the terraces, in the bars, especially when it gets cold outside.
Dogs (and cats) stir up the crowd with their bigoted behavior.
There is a crowd in the head when obligations exceed all measures.
There is a crowd in front of the goal (and the basket) but also in front of the garbage containers that are not emptied on time.
There is a crowd in front of the counters and cash registers when saving on staff or when staff enjoy creating crowds.
Crowds are an opportunity to meet and make friends with like-minded people, but also a scenario for a fight.
There are hundreds of reasons to crowd. They are part of everyday life, as an existential tendency to escape from danger.
Crowds are also the fruit of greed.
Crowding is also among the objects in the careless accumulation of products and garbage.
There is a crowd in the media space and on social networks.
The only solution to the crowd is desolation and solitude.
