AN EXHIBITION BRINGING ATTENTION TO THE RISE OF

CENSORSHIP IN THE US FROM 2024-2025.

Even before the current president took office, censorship was on the rise in the U.S. Now, the situation is sharply increasing, including restricting the scope of the NEA and rescinding awarded funding. If you are an artist, curator or institution who has been impacted by this art emergency, ART AT A TIME LIKE THIS wants to hear from you.

We are assembling a collection of artworks that have been censored or cancelled recently for an exhibition titled DON’T LOOK NOW. ATLT is committed to displaying these works in the best light so we have secured a beautiful gallery in lower Manhattan in October 2025. ATLT will cover shipping, installation and publicity, plus will share a small honorarium with each chosen artist.

DON’T LOOK NOW will include works of every medium including:

Painting

Sculpture

Photography

Digital Artworks

Textile Art

Performance

IG Posts

DON’T LOOK NOW features brave artworks addressing:

LGBQT+ Identity

Reproductive Rights

Palestinian Voices

Racial Justice and Diversity

Anti-Semitism

Alternative Histories

Anything that led to restrictions and cancellations

To apply, please send:

● Jpeg or video of impacted artwork

● Title, material, dimensions, date

Deadline: July 17th, 2025
