PAFF! International Museum of Comic Art presents
C for CARICATURE
This inaugural edition will bring together 50 artists from all over the world and feature 4 renowed caricaturists as speakers: Thomas Fluharty, Riccardo Mazzoli, Maria Picassó i Piquer and Daniel Stieglitz.
Thomas Fluharty
He is the master of refined humor. His style, free yet highly controlled, masterfully utilizes the classic exaggeration of forms that instinctively associates with the concept of caricature. He boasts illustrious collaborations both in the editorial realm (including Time, Der Spiegel, and The New York Times, among others) and with the film industry.
Maria Picassó i Piquer
She embodies the new wave of caricature, which with a minimal geometric style manages to distill the very essence of a face: it's surprising how the extreme formal simplicity still carries an accurate resemblance to the portrayed figures. Additionally, she is the creator of Caricature Resolution, a popular online challenge dedicated to the daily creation of new portraits.
Daniel Stieglitz
He is the quintessential caricature artist, able to create on-the-spot, with great speed and skill, portraits of people never seen before, thanks to his acute powers of observation combined with a strong ability to connect with the audience. His trademark is the large-scale ensemble compositions. Additionally, he also works as a storyboard artist and animator.
Riccardo Mazzoli
He is the symbol of Italian excellence in the field. He has worked with masters such as Bozzetto, Manuli, Nichetti, D'Alò, and Fo, bringing the art of caricature to television by creating video clips for the Zecchino d'Oro and the animated series Calciatoons, which entertains and captivates the new generations. His style, in the tradition of classic animation, excels in capturing the essence of characters by combining humor and satire.
