त्याच्या चित्रांत विश्वाचे हुंकार ऐकू येतात...Je Suis Naji al-Ali

Today, on August 29 1987, Naji al-Ali, one of the greatest political cartoonists was shot dead

Paraphrasing G A Kulkarni (जी ए कुलकर्णी)… 

"...चित्र म्हणजे निव्वळ हातचा वारा; त्यांना रक्त नाही की मांस नाही, पण एखाद्या चित्रकाराचे आत्मसमर्पण मनावर सतत आदळत राहिले तर त्याच्या रक्ताची अमर नक्षत्रे होतात, त्याच्या चित्रांत विश्वाचे हुंकार ऐकू येतात... "

This blog has already paid tributes to Mr. Ali on July 26 2009 here and another brilliant artist Ali Farzat on September 3 2011 here.
