Show Notes
A Tauranga gallery's property manager has asked it to remove posters of Palestinian art from its window.
A member of the public complained about the exhibition at Kūwao Space.
Co-owner Tawahinga Butt says they moved the posters - but now want to change sites.
He says he shouldn't have had to move the signs.
"It's a bit of an over-reach, it's not included in our tenancy agreement at all that we can't express our political opinion."
