FESTIVAL OF CARICATURE
FACES is an international festival dedicated to caricature, celebrating the power of exaggeration, humor, and visual storytelling as a universal artistic language.
ARTISTS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
Artists arrive from different countries and cultures, bringing diverse styles, perspectives, and traditions that enrich the dialogue through caricature. We have the honour to have with us names as Jason Seiler and Robin Schwarzman.
CONNECTION THROUGH DRAWING
FACES creates connections between people through drawing, curiosity, and shared laughter, showing how art can bridge cultures beyond words.
EXPRESSION, CREATIVITY AND EXPERIMENTATION
The festival is a space for free expression, creativity, and artistic experimentation, where caricature becomes a tool to observe, interpret, and question reality.
SHARING AND STORYTELLING
FACES is about sharing ideas and stories, fostering encounters between artists and the public, and promoting caricature as a living, contemporary art form.
PALAZZO
DEL FUMETTO
FACES is held every year at the Palazzo del Fumetto in Pordenone, a place dedicated to comics, illustration, and visual culture.
The festival transforms this historic venue into an international meeting point for caricature, welcoming artists and visitors from around the world.
Through exhibitions, live drawing, and encounters, FACES celebrates creativity, humor, and cultural exchange, making the Palazzo del Fumetto
a vibrant hub of artistic dialogue each year.
