Nuit Blanche Toronto 2013 saw hundreds and hundreds of smart phones raised as beacons of light high above the heads of art hunters, twinkling like tiny installations themselves, curated only by humankind's desire to capture and share every gosh darn thing ever. Maybe the curators of Nuit Blanche's Parade zone were right: maybe the horde is the art. If you were unable to glimpse some of the exhibits over the teaming masses of smartphone wielding revelers, here's your change to see what those people were photographing. There were, of course, massive amounts of photos uploaded to Instagram Saturday night. We've found proof that some of those pics were pretty good.

Check out the entire collection of photos of the all night art crawl in our streams section.
