New Manga Competition - Interpreting Kurama Tengu

Following on the success of Asiascape’s first manga two competitions Asiascape.org is proud to announce its third competition 'Interpreting Kurama Tengu'.

We invite manga artists, cartoonists, students and scholars to offer graphic interpretations of the classic Japanese Noh play Kurama tengu.
Contributors may interpret this task as creatively, expansively, or parsimoniously as they like: style, genre, and length may all be freely chosen. Contributors are encouraged to give the Kurama tengu a Science Fiction twist but this is not a requirement.

The text (or part of the text) of the original Noh play may be used if desired but is not necessary. The purpose of this manga competition is to explore the expressive potential of manga.

Euro 1000 in prizes, plus the best artist will be considered for commission for a follow-up project

Deadline: 1 June 2014

The text of the Kurama tengu play as well as details on how to submit, can be found on the Asiascape site: http://asiascape.org/competition.html
