The cartoon contest was organised by British Council in partnership with the Ken Sprague Fund UK. The exhibition will also include some entries from the Second International Ken Sprague International Cartoon Competition Earthworks 2008.
Cartoons allow one to say more with less, so at a time when the world is submerged with enough jargons and information on climate change, it was time to step back and take a different view on the subject.

The Cartoon Exhibition provides a humorous lens to look at one of the biggest threats humanity is facing today and is aimed at inspiring the audience to take action without sermonising.

Michal Boncza Ozdowski (b 1948) spent the first twelve years of his life in Argentina, the following twelve in Poland and the rest, so far, in Britain. As a result he has a three-way melancholy in place of a proper sense of belonging.
He trained, in Poland, as a fine art painter and poster designer. Almost his entire career has been spent as a graphic designer in service of the non-commercial sector including NGOs, Global Union Federations, educational establishments and charities.
In the 70s and 80s, as a volunteer, he designed campaigning posters for Latin America solidarity organisations in London. As an impromptu cartoonist Michal contributed regularly, in the 90s, to a London based monthly Noticias (News) published in Spanish for the Latin American community in Britain.
He has helped produce innovative graphic novel cum strip-cartoon style, gritty and accessible presentations of union policies for the ICEM and PSI union federations.
As a trustee of the Ken Sprague Fund he has, with John Green, developed the Fund’s bi-annual international cartoon competition, currently in its third edition.
Michal also teaches, part-time, on an access to university media and communications course at the further education College of North West London.

(വരച്ച വരയില് ഇന്നസെന്റ് ) ! in episodes on 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14 February 2010 at prime time - 8 PM to 8.30PM.
The fierce verbal war waged by the Daredevil Innachan with our cartoonist army consisting of Presannan Anikkad, Sudheer Nath, Peter E P, Mohandas, Sajjive, Kavita Balakrishnan, Madhoos, Santhosh T S, Dinraj, Anoop R, Rethish K R, Karthika Kattanam, Dwijith and Surendran Varachal lasted for 4 hours. The barrage of questions shot by the cartoonists while they were not drawing was coolly fended off by Innachan with the help of a quotation team hired on-the-spot by the actor, which included Sathyan Anthikkad, Municipal Chairman, an Ex-MP, the sitting MLA and some very very old retired teachers. The Final score was 20:20.
Please don’t forget to watch KAIRALI TV on February 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14 prime time 8 PM to 8.30PM
