She said, concerning a meeting of the Board’s Arts Advisory Committee on May 1 where Starr had raised the issues, “Several of us objected. The exhibition had nothing to do with political views, and in any case, she had a right to them as a citizen.” Singer again objected at the May 4 meeting of the full Board, but a majority agreed with Starr. In addition dozens of faculty from OCAD and York Universities signed a letter to the Koffler Centre stating that the latter’s “decision is a highly political act that serves to discredit Katz, her work and the validity of the political views and opinions she may hold as a Jew, an artist, and a social citizen.”

The website also stated that “hile we will support artists with diverse views about Israel, we will not endorse anyone who calls for the demise of Israel as a Jewish state.” Katz “categorically rejects” this interpretation of her position. 1628:(ICC) at the ROM, the exhibition ran concurrently with the ROM exhibition ‘’Dead Sea Scrolls: Words that Changed the World’'. The Koffler Gallery also presented the group exhibition ‘’how good are your dwelling places’' from January 14 to March 14, 2010.

Katz herself describes the effect of having only a single one-hour meeting with Starr on May 8, who then immediately issued the Koffler’s press statement nationally, as a “stonewalling of internal dissent and debate… At no point along the way was I asked to represent myself, my ideas, or the mandates of the groups I belong to, despite amicable, almost daily contacts with Filip for many months.”
