We are two Romanian cartoonists sharing a satirical view to our modern world for over 30 years.
These cartoons represent our views on relevant topics, such as war or politics, and people sins, like immorality and shallowness.
Even though our work has been acclaimed by the art community and won many prizes, our main goal is to bring attention to touchy subjects.

The Soldier's Future
You are extremely talented. I think cartoons is the wrong word, maybe illustrations. Regardless, wow. Awesome, all of them.
War
Death should be dripping w/ oil since that's what most of the wars are fought over. Greed. These people are dying so the rich can get richer.
Two Prisoners
True Love
well … he likes her sex and she likes his money …. quid pro quo I believe ! :-)
The Opening Ceremony Of Life
The Bible, Corrected By God
Cure For Stupidity
The Brain
The Revolutionary's "victory"
The Grandmaster
I really disagree with this one.. Its like..damn its stupid view. Chaplin is a legend..practically genius yeah.. but Jim, Benny; they are just good comedians (ye, its matter of taste, blahbla, whatever). Not the best one, not legendary, but good. Why u would compare their talent against each others? Why u would compare one talent against other at all? It´s labeling, its dumb, this artowork is dumb.
The Truth About Original Sin
I think this actually really s****y, it's bad enough that the whole of humanity's suffering is blamed on women from a story created thousands of years ago, but this basically implies the "age old" idea that women are never satisfied or can never get enough and are only most interested in the highest bidder. Which really doesn't speak very kindly to any sort of depth of character.
Well most of these are super gross , the one with "women are only after money "and constantly depicting them as pregnant , birthing machines ( like the one with the soldier the only role of the woman is her birthing and getting married it doesn't depict her dreams or how her life is changing) I like the style but the artist lacks originality and is basically drawing for shock value without deeper meaning to his paintings.

you both are right i have a daughter and i so scared for her future in society a mean for example yesterday i saw in the news about a guy that is preaching the "legalization" of rape and call a massive meeting of men near a college., i was in sock and i saw this preaching hate towards women all over the internet is like unbelievable , i dont get why so much hate towards women and well the whole concept of putting down women for the only reason of what ??? being women? born as a female?? i really afraid of future generations because is scary how now a days young men 20-30 years old have this idea that rape is ok that violence towards women is ok and i dont want to even imagine how is going to be when my daughter hits 18 , do i have to need now to talk to her to be afraid???? to not trust men ?? to not even have male friends??? this world is rotten.
Load More Replies...Wow. The comments above are totally divorced from the satirical nature of this picture. Broken funny bones all round I sense.
The mainstream version of the original sin story was purposefully mysogenized. They found a version 300 years older that included immortality in the paradise, adam committing the original sind, eve crying out to god and him granting her the ability to give life thereby returning immortality to her! Men have always tried to control and fight over women because we are your connection to eternity!
I feel this satirical portrayal is particularly aimed at showing that 'bigger' DOES NOT always indicate 'better'
Which gender is obsessed with sexual gratification, again? ... Eve got a bum rap.
sat·ire ˈsaˌtī(ə)r/ noun the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices I can't see how this is trying to say anything other than that the woman chose the bigger Apple and the bigger fig leaf. Where is the satire if it's not a critique of women? Combined with the previous gold digger illustration it's pretty clear the artist thinks women are just after money. Maybe they're also highlighting that men are willing to buy women in this way so in general it's insulting to everybody.
ok...Let's think for a second. Whats if....IF...Eve didn't represent every single woman that has ever existed, not because her own existence is plain b******t, but because MAYBE this is a critics to a character and not to women?
So naive of you. I think you're smart enough that satirical cartoons use representations a lot, and Adam&Eve is a classical representation of the role of men and women in general. They're the 1st humans on earth, from where everything began. Makes sense that they're the embodiment of the whole human kind (according to the bible of course)
Load More Replies...Everyone blames Eve for this "terrible" fate she put us all in. this was the only way that we could even exist, and without any knowledge of good or evil, there is no way that she could even know she was being temped of manipulated.
Are you aware that the whole thing never happened? 'Cause you talk like it did...
Load More Replies...The whole story about Adam and Eva is b******t.... First, there was Eva and she is the daughter of Sophia Zoe... and Adam was given as a gift to her...
Just a quick observation but there are far more lengthy comments on this cartoon than the other ones and most of the comments are from women. I guess they must have really hit a raw nerve :)
A lot of lengthy comments on this cartoon and mostly from women. I guess they must have really touched a raw nerve :)
Does no one notice the African American facial structure. Huge lips jaw shape... not to mention the sterotypical large penis. Coincidence?
Does no one notice that the devil has all African American features. From the facial structure, lips and then the sterotypical large penis. Coincidence?
So women are only attracted by the "size"of the partner?Clearly the author is very christian and therefore has a very low opinion of women.
and Adam is o fair and the "devil" much darker and women.... let's not start on then: ...
Biblical idea of Eve is not really about women as human beings, I believe; each gender has both feminine and masculine aspects in their consciousness. If you look at the myth from this perspective, it makes a whole lot of sense actually.
The truth is their eyes weren't "opened" till Adam are the fruit. Eve was deceived thinking God was keeping something from her, Adam was not deceived but still chose to disobey. It's Adams fault. And Satan's.
I think its ok, the goal was to make touchy subjects, and the woman shown as a "thing" is what happen nowadays
Wow why would u post something like that we women like u we are no toys
- The story wasn't " created", it's real. And Satan was a snake, by the way.
Actually, if you actually READ the bible it never says the snake is Satan. It's just a talking snake. You've just been told that it's Satan and choose to believe what someone told you instead of actually checking your facts.

These are really unintelligent actually . Since when is shock value "brilliant". I can go watch a Michael Bay movie and be more moved that these (pretty offensive) images.
so obviously they work ..being pieces of work designed to incite debate ...
The Comments Under Those Satirical Cartoons Show The Shocking Reality Of Modern Day Society
Very well drawn but a bit on the nose I think. Certainly sets the stage for a conversation.
sometime you should just enjoy the art you dont like. Its not about making sense always....
Good work, guys. Indeed provocative paintings, revealing the problems of society. Excellent work
This is not a fair nor accurate representation of today's society; it is a misogynistic at best.
I both like and dislike it. Some are very true, others are just an old stereotypical view on something that has already changed or has never been true.
