[Борис Эренбург]

Dear friends Cartoonists,
We are happy to announce that your interest for participation on this 41st World Gallery of Cartoons, Skopje 2013 is on very high level.
This year's edition was marked with a huge number of participants: 407 entries of the cartoonists from 63 countries, with more than 1580 works!

Please find attached the list of the cartoonists who pass through the first selection.
Congratulations to the selected ones, and more luck to those who didn't pass through.. keep trying, we are expecting your participation next year!

As the numbers speak for themselves, the competition was extremely tough. The first selection was made by the representatives from OSTEN and the nominated Cartoonist of the Year 2011 in Macedonia - Miroslav Georgievski - Miro ( https://www.facebook.com/miro.georgievski ). They selected 246 cartoonists who will go to the next level, where the international jury will take over the further selection. The international jury comprised by:
1. MICE JANKULOVSKI, Macedonia - representative of OSTEN, cartoonist
2. LENG MU, China - cartoonist and Director of GooglM Cartoons Museum (http://www.googlm.com/cartoonist/Leng.Mu.html )
3. PETAR PISMESTROVIC, Austria - cartoonist ( http://www.pismestrovic.com )
4. ERDOGAN BASOL, Turkey - cartoonist (http://www.erdoganbasol.com/cv.htm )
5. LIZA DONNELY, USA - New Yorker cartoonist (http://lizadonnelly.com/bio )

Be aware that we are accepting digital images of the works only for the first stage of the application.. We are nurturing drawing and an advantage will be given to the hand drawn works, of course together with other elements of the cartoons - a concept, an idea, an originality... The cartoonists whose digital works enter the first selection - should send printed and hand signed works to be exhibited on the occasion of the announcement of the awards on 30th May 2013 in OSTEN Gallery, Skopje/Macedonia.

ATTENTION!!!
The selected artists who didn't send their works in original in the first phase - should send their works via post mail as soon as possible on the address bellow. We should have the works in Skopje no later than April 15th 2013 :
OSTEN - World Gallery of Cartoons
8.Udarna Brigada 2, 1000 Skopje
Macedonia

We'll keep you informed about the results of the jury's selection and the awards' winners.
With best regards,.. stay in touch...

Спасибо, Борис! Я уже читал, и тебя видел.
Написал македонцам - все три присылать?
Обычно выбирают одну.
Как погода? У нас сегодня было 32 мороза.
Завидуешь?

[Борис Эренбург]

Я тоже написал.
Ответами поделимся.
Завидую ли? Наверное, да... Нам тут хватает зкзотики и крайностей, а вот времен года явно не хватает...

[Hafiz]

Я тоже написал, мне ещё не ответили ...

[Stanislav Ashmarin]

Пауза несколько затянулась...

[Виктор]

Уважаемые коллеги, пожалуйста подскажите, как все-таки поступать с OSTEN .

[Борис Эренбург]

Подсказываю: они очень хотят как можно больше работ для своего музея, не для продажи. Но как минимум просят прислать отобранную.
А чтобы знать, что отобрали, вежливенько попросите Корнелию Вам ответить.
Она просто не успевает ответить всем.
Мне уже успела...

[Виктор]

Спасибо ,Борис. Я посылал запрос дней десять назад.но ответа не получил.Боюсь не угадать с отбором.Придется ждать.

[Stanislav Ashmarin]

А времени уже мало. По крайней мере для меня, отдалённого.
Вместо трёх работ послал две, одну жалко стало.
Не совсем нравится фраза "не успевает ответить всем":
другие вот успевают.

[Борис Эренбург]

Согласен.
Я ей написал и об этом тоже.

[Valery Momot]

Четвертый год подряд, меня не принимают, как жить? Что делать?

[Борис Эренбург]

Не расстраивайся. У каждого есть такие черные дыры...
