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.

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!?!?

Exactly. Many people have shown more outrage over the damage to a painting of nature than the destruction of REAL nature around us. Shows what a sick society we live in.

Spoken like a true elitist.

It's a slippery slope and I'm surprised you're sliding on it.

The spirit of the painting is still damaged. Art is one of the few things that makes the godforsaken human race worth saving and should be celebrated as such. It's why the rest of this matters.

How are these people going to know, before they do it, if it is going to hurt the art or not? What if it did hurt the art? What would you propose to do about that?
Replying to @marwilliamson @CaliCoastReplay
What happened to not solving a problem with the same thinking that created it? Not very miracle minded. I can’t see Gandhi organizing millions of people to waste their energy & food by throwing it on… art, our secular (or nonsecular) portal to the sacred (which includes nature).

Are you sure of this? It’s not what I read.

To me that’s the point. This country voted for Al Gore and POTUS refused Florida the right to count its own votes. That election was the REAL steal.
