Art in the Alley

Nuit Blanche tends to have some out of the world art installations - the kind where you have to find the message in the project and determine if it resembles some type of possible art. I was at Yonge-Dundas Square I noticed some people bringing large paintings into Okeefe Lane where it looked like they were putting the canvas into the dumpsters. My Blanche senses went into overtime and I thought - hey, installation construction underway.
But then they pulled the art out of the dumpster and stacked them in front of the green garbage bins. I then checked the Nuit Blanche website and could find nothing scheduled for this location. I don't think that it is part of the all night art thing because there wasn't any humongous crowd gathered around the paintings beside the garbage. They also wouldn't need several days to set up this installation and the garbage would probably be emptied before Saturday and then where would they be? An art installation without art is, well cancel that thought because it could be still art with just the dumpsters.
