<font face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 12px;">What about turning the show into an exercise in urban guerilla curating. If possible, open the show in a different venue every night. If the authorities close it down it doesn't matter as it will be opening somewhere else the next day. If they impound the work then you have made your point that this is a clear case of political censorship, which I imagine a good lawyer could turn into an interesting case. It also means you can have an opening bash every night.<br>

<br>
Thanks to all of you who wrote back (and especially, who wrote to RPI <br>
president Jackson) about this clash. Now you should know the latest: <br>
Wafaa Bilal's show has been restaged in the nearby Sanctuary for <br>
Independent Media and guess what? The police has closed it on a <br>
building code technicality.<br>
<br>
See: <br>
<a href="http://thesanctuaryforindependentmedia.org" target="_blank">http://thesanctuaryforindependentmedia.org</a><br>
<br>
And for a complete strory of the affair with links:<br>
<a href="http://thesanctuaryforindependentmedia.org/node/120" target="_blank">http://thesanctuaryforindependentmedia.org/node/120</a><br>
<br>
All of this is going very far and looks like a true case of hysteria. <br>
The symbolic gap between a cosmopolitan outlook able to understand what <br>
is going on from an Iraki point of view and a pure America first <br>
rejection of anything foreign is frightening to behold.<br>
<br>
Your support still matters.<br>
<br>
best, Brian<br>
