The more heads the better
our interview with Agata Dudek Satyrykon: When in the mid 80’s Zygmunt Januszewski (born 1956) was invited to design the graphic layout of Satyrykon, he wrote a funny letter thanking for the “honour of being listed in the group of professionals” (we’ll come back to that later on) quoting flirtingly his wife: “You must have
Gepp’s prams
When it was announced, at Satyrykon 2016 press conference, that Gerhard Gepp was the winner of Grand Prix, the local media described the winning drawing as “rather modest” revealing bits of their surprise that such an unimpressive cartoon had been awarded that highest prize.

Joe Szabo (1950-2016)
We were deeply sorry to read that Joe Szabo passed away. Satyrykon owes a lot to him. When we were just trying, doing our best to make an international festival here in Legnica, Poland, so separated from the West in the 80., we suddenly got the message that “Witty World” writes about it (1987). He
