The exhibition displays 135 cartoons by cartoonists from around the world.

The exhibition of the 31st Aydın Doğan International Cartoon Competition, organized by the Aydın Doğan Founation, has opened at the Atatürk Culture Arts and Congress Center in the Central Anatolian province of Eskişehir.

Last year, 814 cartoonists from 70 countries participated in the competition with a total of 2,556 pieces. The international committee gathered in Bodrum earlier this year to evaluate 300 cartoons by 214 artists from 43 countries, which had been chosen by a pre-selection committee.

Turkish cartoonist Kürşat Zaman won first prize. Second place went to Iranian artist Mojtaba Heidarpanah and third to Poland’s Krzysztof Grzondziel, who was also last year’s winner.
