Goettinger Elch Award

Goettingen Moose Prize
"A lifetime achievement warded given to artists whose contributions to satire and caricature merit special recognition. Presented to Franziska Becker on January 28th., 2012.

"Franziska Becker is without qualification the most accomplished woman cartoonist in Germany. Her advocacy of women's rights is likewise deserving of high praise. And her keen insight and heartfelt humor are tempered by a witty self-deprecation; hence she brings unique gifts to graphically representing The Battle of the Sexes. Most significant, she succeeds marvelously in depicting the conditions and contradictions of everyday life in a brilliantly witty fashion..." (Excerpted from the award panel's statement).
