Heinz-Jankofsky-Caricature-Competition

»Knoll-nosed Faces Reloaded – When Pencil and Screen Compete in Laughter«

For the seventh time: the Heinz Jankofsky Caricature Competition organised by SUPERillu is taking place again this year. Heinz Jankofsky was the publication’s in-house illustrator for many years. This time, the competition is held under the motto »2026 – analogue meets digital«. The best submissions have been selected by a jury and will be awarded on the evening. Prizes for the three best entries are €1,000, €500 and €250 respectively, as well as an original caricature by Heinz Jankofsky (1935–2002). The winning designs will be presented in the DDR Museum conference room with musical accompaniment by Dirk Zöllner, and will then be on display there until 27 October.

A cooperation with SUPERillu.
