‘Oh No Canada!’ Anti-Tar Sands Art Show in DC to December 23, 2013
Artist Blacklisted by Canada Over Criticism of Climate Policy Takes Show to U.S. “American policymakers need to understand just who they will be doing business with if they approve the Keystone,’ says environmental artist Franke James. “The Canadian government’s efforts to silence environmental and scientific voices is wrong.”
James’ poster art criticizing Harper and the Keystone XL will be displayed at Washington, D.C. bus stops along Pennsylvania and Constitution Avenues near the White House and the Capitol. The five-figure ad-buy was paid for by three U.S. environmental groups—Natural Resources Defense Council, Sierra Club and National Wildlife Federation—as well as through crowd-funding. INSIDE CLIMATE
