Art of Democracy Reception, Exhibit and Censored Art @ Pueblo Nuevo 11/08/08

The Art and Democracy show is a traveling exhibit of more than 60 artist that touches upon a wide range of issues of the current state of democracy in the United States. The exhibit has been in more than 50 different venues nationally. We linked up with the curator & artist Art Hazelwood because some of the posters for this show where, with a lack of a better word, censored by the Berkeley City Arts Commission. For more info on the censorship issue check out the two links from The Berkeley Daily Planet & The East Bay Express
