COLLAGE CARICATURES
by ERGUN AKLEMAN
Saddam Hussein as a collage. This caricature is published in Turkish weekly Yeni Gundem in 1987. The eyes of Saddam Hussein are actually the eyes of late president of Soviet Union Leonid Brejnev. The image on the right is slightly improved to get rid off aliasing caused by dithering in printed image using an image manipulation program.
This caricature of Ronald Reagan is created from a photograph of a hand I cut from a magazine. I simply painted mouth, teeth. Hair is also a collage. From late 1980's.
