CALGARY — A comedian from the United Kingdom says photos of her and her colleagues were used without their knowledge in artwork funded by the city of Calgary. Comedian Bisha Ali posted on social media that she’s upset because neither she nor any of the other subjects gave their consent to the artist for their photos to be used. She says all the photos were taken as promotional head shots for a show that she and other comedians were involved in. Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi says he has asked staff to investigate and the city says it is working toward taking the photos down. I’m sure it would have come up that this massive installation was happening.”(CTV Calgary)
