In Albanië is een bijzondere tentoonstelling in het National History Museum te zien: Art 1. Op de website Historia Ime staat een uitgebreid verslag te lezen van de opening:

(...) "This exhibition, which has taken the name of the first article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, opens the week of activities that coincides with May 17-th, International Day Against Homophobia, in commemoration of the removal of homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization (WHO). While the event was held in the lobby of the Museum, outside there was a large number of police officers to insure the safety, even though nothing happened for them to intervene until the end of the ceremony."
