Giant NDA art installation criticises silencing of artists

Original: There's a giant NDA up as a Nuit Blanche art installation, calling out the silencing of curators and artists who've spok

A large-scale art installation styled as a non-disclosure agreement has gone up in a downtown Toronto alley as part of Nuit Blanche, the city's annual all-night art festival. Created by the collective No Arms in the Arts, the piece is located off Spadina Avenue south of Richmond Street, leading to the Cinecycle venue. It calls out the silencing of curators and artists who have spoken critically of Israel, turning the legal symbol of enforced silence into a public artwork about censorship.

Why now: It is a provocative protest artwork addressing censorship and Israel-related speech controversies, shown during Toronto's major Nuit Blanche art night.
