Musa Gumus 1963 - 2025

 Musa Gumus 1963 - 2025



I am so sorry to hear sad news about a dear #cartoonist friend, Musa Gümüs. He was a talented person who won 202 awards around the globe as well as in Turkiye too. Big early loss. R.i.P Musa 😢😢

Hem Türkiye'de, hem de yurt dışında 202 ödül kazanmış, değerli karikatürcü arkadaşımızı kaybettik. Çok üzgünüm. Sevenlerine ve ailesine baş sağlığı diliyorum.  😢

Mi dispiace molto sentire una triste notizia su un caro amico #cartoonist, Musa Gümüs. Era una persona di talento che ha vinto 202 premi in tutto il mondo e anche in Turchia. Grande perdita precoce. Riposa in pace Musa 😢😢

Musa Gümüs (Turkey)

Musa GümüÅŸ was born in 1963 in Gaziantep (in South Turkey, near the Syrian border). He graduated from the Department of Business Administration and Management at Marmara University. He currently lives and works in Istanbul.

He started drawing cartoons when he was a high school student. His first cartoon was published in 1979 and since 1987 he works as a professional cartoonist for magazines as Hibir, Bando, Nokta, HBR Maymun … Since 2001 Musa teaches caricature and illustration at the international MEF School.

He also participated in many cartoon competitions and received numerous national and international awards, including the Grand Prix 2006 at the Cartoon World Festival in Porto and the Golden Hat in Knokke-Heist Belgium in 2009. In 2015 he received a life achievement award in the Aydın Doğan International Cartoon Competition.

His favorites cartoonists are Gatto, Boligan, Gluszek, Kazanevsky… (all cartoonists who had already a personal exhibition in Kruishoutem!). And his favorite artist is Dali. He prefers to use soft pastels, acrylics and colored pencils. From time to time he is trying different techniques. He doesn’t use the computer often, sometimes Photoshop, but very rarely.


For Gümüs “a cartoon is a common language of all humanity. The cartoon is an important tool to understand the universe we live in. This common language brings countries closer together and helps people to understand each other. I'm hopeful.”
