“Drawing Laughter” is an interactive exhibition created by caricaturist duo Nir Mold (Nirmo) and Amos Ellenbogen. The exhibition showcases and illustrates comedic techniques used by gag cartoonists, including comedic role reversal, subversion of expectations, wordplay, visual punchlines, dramatic irony (“the advantage of knowing”), and more. It features a wall of single-panel gag cartoons drawn by Nirmo and Ellenbogen, alongside original sketches and doodles. In addition, the exhibition includes five interactive activity stations that invite visitors to try their hand at creating comics, learn about facial expressions, speech bubbles, background framing, and timelines, and even sit at a light table to create their own personal comic strip.
