KOSCA Caricature Convention 2026

Last week marked the 10th annual KOSCA Caricature Convention, hosted by the Korean Society of Caricature Artists in Seoul. The week was a vibrant celebration of international talent and artistic exchange. The event featured two speakers: 2025 Golden Nosey winner Seulki Ahn and multiple award-winning ISCA Board Member Kelly O’Brien. One hundred artists from around the world competed, representing Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Mongolia, Germany, Russia, and the United States. After a Likeness Competition, a Live Caricature Tournament and three full days of drawing, artists cast their votes and awards were presented. A huge congratulations to all of the winners and especially to this year’s Artist of the Year, Masashi Higashitani of Japan!
