A man walking by the gallery noticed the video and an image showing a man's hand inside his pants and filed a complaint

POLICE HAVE DEMANDED That a Tel Aviv art gallery take steps so that a video on display in which two men are seen kissing and a photo depicting a hand in a man’s pants not be visible from the street.

Following a complaint by an individual that art of a sexual nature was visible through the window of the Indie group photography gallery on Chlenov Street in south Tel Aviv, police demanded the art gallery take appropriate steps to remove the art from visibility to the public.

The complainant said children were standing next to the gallery’s show window, looking inside and laughing, according to police sources. Police sources told Haaretz that the demand to remove the video from view of the outside was not the due to its homosexual character but rather that a depiction of sensual kissing could upset residents.
