The National Gallery of Australia (NGA) has faced criticism from the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC) after covering two Palestinian symbols featured in an art installation.
The exhibit, named “SaVĀge K’lub: Te Paepae Aora’i—Where the Gods Cannot be Fooled,” features several mannequins wearing uniforms, as well as a wall hanging.
