The 1st Tlatelolco International Caricature Biennial in Mexico is open for entries under the theme “A New World Order.”
Entries are open for the 1st Tlatelolco International Caricature Biennial in Mexico, organized by the Tlatelolco University Cultural Center (CCUT) in collaboration with CartónClub. The theme of the inaugural edition is “A New World Order.”
The international call is open to political cartoonists, illustrators, visual artists and graphic creators aged 18 and over. CCUT is part of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and the biennial is supported by the French and German embassies in Mexico and the Goethe-Institut Mexiko.
Eligible works must have appeared between January 1 and September 7, 2026 in a newspaper, magazine, website, blog, digital publication, public social media account or cartoon platform, or have been presented in a physical or online exhibition. The date of publication or exhibition must be verifiable.
Works created only for the biennial and not previously published or shown are therefore not eligible.
