Oltre le parole, cartoonists d’Asia a Kathmandu

mir-rohullah-sadat-kabul-afghanistanoktay-bingol-turkeycartoon-nepalA metà novembre a Patan (Yala Maya Kendra) si è tenuta un esibizione di una quarantina di cartoonists dell’Asia (e non solo). La mostra è stata organizzata da una delle migliori riviste planetarie Himal, stampata in Nepal ma dedicata a tutto il sub-continente.
Anche qui c’è stato un vincitore (Husejin Hanusic (Hule) dalla Bosnia Erzegovina) ma tutti e 40, sono stati premiati dall’aver contribuito a rimettere il Nepal verso la normalità.
E’ stato anche il modo per rendere pubblico e “ufficiale” il lavoro mai documentato dei cartoonist in Asia, un lavoro non sempre facile. Across Southasia, cartoonists have braved their way past societal restrictions on free speech to increase democratisation of the public sphere. Ha dichiarato Manjula Padmanabhan, una delle rare donne.
Nor has even a single cartoonists’ network been set up anywhere in the region to protect the rights of cartoonists and their work. But even as cartoonists await a better appreciation of their art, they continue afflicting the comfortable and comforting the muhammad-zahoor-peshawar-pakistanafflicted.rajesh-k-c-kathmandu-nepal
E anche in Nepal il loro lavoro non è stato facile durante il conflitto, schiacciati dalle minacce dello stato e della guerriglia Yet even with such harsh censorship underway, cartoonists drew ingenious lines to criticise the takeover, with their satire often leading protests by the media. Considering the very short history of Nepali cartooning and its previously marginal role in even the country’s incipient journalism, this was indeed noteworthy.
Ma è meglio vedere i loro disegni. Gli autori sono nei titoli dei disegni.zzhusejin-hanusic-hule-bosnia-and-herzegovinaabhijeet-kini-bombay-indiachime-rigzin-namgyal-thimphu-bhutan

For years, I worked in Nepal in projects related to education, health, community development in the area of Kavre, Chitwan and Kathmandu. During my work in Nepal we implemented an Health Project for children and community in Kavre District in cooperation with Dhulikel Hospital. It was directed to assure medical visits, immunization and hospitalization to more than 6000 children. From 2005 I worked also in Cambodia on education and child protection projetcs. Before I collaborated with Tribhuvan University and other organizations. I wrote several guide and travel books on Nepal and collaborated in shooting documentaries on Nepal, Tibet, Sikkim and Mozambique
