For many cartoonists, political caricature is an exacting art. A good caricature can be an excellent example of illustrative technique as well as a biting insight into a politician's personality and political agenda. The works on display here take a satirical look at some of the core players in the Labor and Liberal camps including Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard and Wayne Swan; and Malcolm Turnbull, Brendan Nelson, Tony Abbott and Peter Costello.

Dawn of Kevin

Dan Boermans – Courier-Mail, 27 November 2007


    The top three-quarters of Kevin Rudd's head rising above the horizon. The foreground is blue and the sky above the horizon is shades of pink and purple. Rudd is visible from just above his top lip. He wears glasses and has bright yellow hair. Rays of light project up and out from the top of his head.
