Cartooning on the Frontline
February 4, 2011 in News
PCO member Martin Rowson delivered a talk on Caricatures and Commentary to the Frontline Club in London this week.
In discussion with Radio 4’s Laurie Taylor Martin spoke about subjects ranging from his caricatures of patrons at the Gay Hussar restaurant to the abolition of the Licensing Act in 1695 and taking in influences from William Hogarth, James Gillray and David Low on the way.
This was followed by a lively question and answer session where he fielded enquiries about how he deals with new political figures and the Danish Muhammed cartoons.
The talk can be seen in full (all one and a half hours of it) at the Frontline Club’s website.
