Received catalog: LINES 2009 from Cypriot - Turkish Cartoonists

This catalog, prepared by Huseyin Cakmak, is published in Ankara, Turkey, in February 2011.
In his introductory article, Dr Arif Ali Albayrak says,
"Although we were living isolated from the world, with the power of art and culture and especially the power of cartoon art, we have managed to reach places where we politically couldn't. Tens and thousands of our political representatives were travelling abroad and the goal has always been to try to meet the modern world and explain the hardships the Turkish Cypriots have been suffering from. How interesting it is that the world understood Cyprus more easily with Cyprus Turkish Cartoon Art."

They had this catalog published by combining the productivity potential of the members of the Cyprus Turkish Cartoonists Association and the ministerial contribution to culture and art associations.

In the catalog are the works by Arif A. Albayrak, Bertan Soyer, Celal Deniz, Cemal Tunceri, Devran Öztunç, Dolgun Dalgıçoğlu, Ezcan Özsoy, Hüseyin Çakmak, M. Serhan Gazioğlu, Mehmet Ulubatlı, Musa Kayra, Mustafa C. Azizoğlu, Mustafa Tozakı, Serkan Sürek, Sevcan Çerkez, and Zafer Tutkulu with their bios in both Turkish and English languages.

The catalog has 72 color pages and is of size 20x21.5 cm.
