Artistic Freedom and Human Rights

The document discusses artistic freedom and its status around the world. It notes that the level of freedom allowed for artistic expression varies between countries, depending on laws and institutions in place to protect, promote, censor or control artists. In 2013, the UN Special Rapporteur presented a report analyzing the global situation regarding limitations on artistic freedom and creativity. The report emphasized that artistic freedom is a basic human right beyond just the right to create or participate in cultural life. It involves other fundamental freedoms needed for artistic expression, such as freedom of movement and association.
