There is no money especially for the publications, FECO vice-president general and I think this is dangerous, because they are play- ing with that sort of cantilena : the idea of budget English version : cut, thereby accustoming people to that idea. Bernard Bouton - FECO Secretary General However I am tranquilized because I am sure that the world of graphic humor will survive ; the new gene- ration is here, full of talented artists opening up new ways as far as possible, as best as possible. Working methods have changed but they continue to do their chosen job that was never an easy job. Because we must work in a world where it is very difficult to live in. Indeed there are many difficult the- mes to deal with : corrupt regimes which waste money stolen from the people, fraudulent elections, the grip of the money on sport, civil wars, massacres… Unfortunately, as always the lack of money is having an impact on culture firstly and we can think that our best alternative could be the electronic means by pu- blishing our cartoons on the Internet. The problem is that our works could be seen by only few people through the Internet – but even if thousands of people could see them, they don't give us any food. In any case we must not give up our hopes, the trick is finding the right way to utilize the electronic net- work to our benefit, some people think it's possible.

Cartoon: Hörmen Dans le monde du dessin d´humour et d’actualité, on a regretté la disparition, dernièrement, d’un certain nombre de collègues et de personnalités importantes de niveau international liées au dessin. Cést ainsi que nous ont quitté Ronald Searle, Antonio Mingote, Caloi, Bert Witte, Dieter Burkamp, parmi d’autres. À croire que les grands du dessin et de l´humour sén vont petit à petit, en partie parce qu’ils sont âgés, en partie parce qu’ils sont fatigués de cette espèce de normalisation qui s’est installée dans les esprits grâce au discours de crise qui prétend qu’il n’y a plus d’argent dans les caisses. C’est vrai qu’il n’y a plus d’argent dans certaines caisses et aussi dans d’innombrables poches, surtout les nôtres et celles des publications, et cela me paraît assez dangereux parce qu’on est en train de jouer précisément avec le fait que les gens s´habituent à cette espèce de cantilène devenue universelle: la compression budgétaire. Cependant, la certitude que le monde de l´humour graphique ne disparaîtra pas complètement me soulage car il faudra compter sur les nouvelles générations qui ont beaucoup de talent et qui continuent d’ouvrir un chemin comme elles peuvent là où elles peuvent. Les méthodes de travail ont changé et les plus jeunes, mais aussi certains des moins jeunes, s’y sont adaptés et continuent à faire le travail qu’ils ont choisi, un travail qui n’a jamais été facile pour qui que ce soit. Surtout parce qu’on doit œuvrer dans un monde de plus en plus difficile à vivre. En effet, on ne manque pas de sujets difficiles à traiter: régimes politiques corrompus qui gaspillent dans le faste l’argent qui manque au peuple, élections frauduleuses, l’emprise de l’argent roi sur le monde du sport, guerres civiles ou militaires, massacres… Comme toujours, le manque dárgent se fait sentir en premier lieu dans tout ce qui touche à la culture et l’on se dit, aujourd’hui, que notre bouée de sauvetage est, peut-être, l’électronique. Concrètement et faute de papier, on finira tous par être obligés de publier nos dessins sur Internet. Le problème, c’est que par le biais de ce média ce sont à peine quelques personnes qui accèdent à notre travail – ou éventuellement plu- sieurs milliers – mais qu’elles ne nous donnent pas à manger. Toutefois, il ne faut pas désespérer. Le truc, c’est de trouver la meilleure manière de mettre l´électronique à notre service, ce qui, selon certains, est possible. Il suffit donc de chercher. Alors, cherchons… Celles ou ceux qui ont un savoir faire et/ou croient avoir des idées innovatrices pour l’avènement d’un futur meilleur pour notre profession sont invité(e)s à les partager et participer ainsi à la vie future de notre belle famille, la FECO. Une fois de plus il est bon de rappeler que la FECO ná pas de moyens financiers, mais que jamais elle ne manquera du soutien de tous les collègues dessinateurs. Et nous veillerons à que cela continue ainsi.
