The Gabrovo Biennial of Humour and Satire in Art has a 46-year history and is one of the most prestigious international events held in Gabrovo, Bulgaria . It is organized by the Museum of Humour and Satire in Gabrovo. The 24th edition invites artists to contribute their edgy takes on the theme of Dimensions of Publicness. The exhibition will present contemporary art and cartoons addressing the following topics:
• public space
• public art
• public debate
• public broadcasting
• public interest
• public threat/security
• and other whatchamacallits with public dimension.
The organizers have the confidence that it is time to call on humour in order to deconstruct and redefine whatever is left of the concept of publicness.

In order to apply, artists should fill in the online form https://biennial.humorhouse.bg/en/participants-form/ with their proposals. The selections of the works will be done by an international panel of jurors. The selected artists must send their original works within the indicated time.
