Brazil bans train art
Print Edition
A BRAZILIAN court has banned street artists in Rio de Janeiro from performing in subway carriages, saying they disturb commuters鈥 鈥渢ranquility.鈥
The Rio Court of Justice said a law introduced last year allowing and regulating performance art inside metro and train cars was 鈥渦nconstitutional.鈥 Federal senator Flavio Bolsonaro, the eldest son of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, had challenged the legislation. 鈥淚t is up to each person to choose, according to their values and convictions, what type of art to attend and at what moment,鈥 Judge Heleno Pereira Nunes said in a majority decision. Passengers should be able to 鈥渆xercise their right to tranquility, which is not possible when exposed to shouting and loud noises from musical instruments.鈥 Artists are considering an appeal.
