Overseas artists are performing to protest censorship in Japan in connection with the discontinuance of the Girl of Peace Award at the Aichi Triennale in Japan.
Rosaria Iazzetta, who introduced herself as an Italian artist, offered a performance by uploading several photos on social media.
Mexico's famous artist Monica Mayer also posted a performance photo, revealing his intention to join, and Norma Silva, a Mexican doctoral student majoring in art history, joined the procession.
Like this, after the discontinuation of the 'Girl of Peace' exhibition, the storm has spread all over the world beyond Korea and Japan.
Korean cultural and arts organizations also announced that they would ban the exhibition of 'Girls of Peace' as a violation of censorship and freedom of expression by the Japanese government, and expressed solidarity with cultural artists from all over the world, including Japan.
