As long as they don’t hurt the art (which they’re not), I think environmental activists throwing food stuff etc. onto priceless paintings to highlight the insanity of our priorities is a pretty glorious piece of agitprop.

Why don't you care about starving people, Marianne?! Why *throw food* when people are *literally* starving? Do you not realize global starvation is an urgent problem?? WHERE IS YOUR OUTRAGE?! ... Same vibe.

Kinda stupid and childish actually.

Sorry, Marianne it is destructive and stupid! It will only backfire and hurt the cause they are trying to raise awareness! Art work from dead artists are not causing Climate Change our governmental and business leaders are. Focus on them!

I only mean this if the art remains unhurt! But throwing food at broadcasting towers would have none of the dramatic affect that this has. There’s a DaDa-esque surreal quality to this, a shock value that makes an excellent point: what is humanity doing to our priceless earth!?!?
