Aurora Cultural Centre closed down an art exhibition “Expressions of Critical Thought” after just one day of opening because of complaints made about it's pro-Palestinian content. The centre went on to justify the closure as a sustainable business decision.
Abstract:
-
Excerpt:
"Unraveled, this means that the potential financial and other types of losses and the blasts the center would receive from the right-wing and pro-Israeli media, which is quite vicious and prominent in Toronto, far outweighed any concern for democratic rights and the fate of artistic freedom."
