Lamentablemente, el mundo del arte se encuentra de luto tras el reciente fallecimiento de Yayoi Kusama en Tokio, a la edad de 97 años.

En este video puedes ver su histórica exhibición en Melbourne que quedó registrada como uno de los pináculos celebratorios más masivos y exitosos de su icónica carrera global en vida.

Tuvo lugar en la National Gallery of Victoria (NGV International) del 15 de diciembre de 2024 al 21 de abril de 2025.

Esta aclamada muestra histórica se convirtió en la exposición con boleto pagado más visitada en toda la historia de la galería australiana, atrayendo a un récord total de 570,537 visitantes.

Fue la retrospectiva más grande dedicada a Kusama en Australia, reuniendo cerca de 200 obras que abarcaron más de ocho décadas de trayectoria, desde dibujos que realizó a los nueve años hasta sus piezas más contemporáneas.

La galería albergó un récord mundial de 10 instalaciones inmersivas simultáneas, incluyendo sus icónicas habitaciones infinitas de espejos (Infinity Mirror Rooms).

Contó con el debut mundial de una nueva Infinity Room creada especialmente para el espacio de Melbourne, además del debut australiano de las colosales esculturas al aire libre e interiores como Dancing Pumpkin y The Hope of the Polka Dots Buried in Infinity Will Eternally Cover the Universe.

Trump declares Palestine Action a global terror group right after removing Syria, led by a former Al Qaeda leader, from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism. Shows you who the Israel First crowd sees as a bigger threat.

The entire soft, privileged, U.S. centric, anti anti-imperialist left should be exposed along with their pseudo-left tendencies & movements from Afro-pessimism & it's FBA & ADOS offspring, to abolitionism not committed to defeating capitalist state.

They were so jealous of him : Fact check this!

Top 10 things the entire Middle East jealous of Bashar Al Assad and his wife’s growth for a sovereign country

1. He rose the country’s GDP at one point or was higher than Israel’s with no Rothschild’s Central Banking

2. He was voted the “ Best president in all the Middle East” by a Zogby International poll. 2008

3. Damascus was voted 7 in the top ten places to visit in the New York Times 2009

4. Free health care ( including free brain surgery ) and Education

5. Syria’s GDP tripled was around US $60 billion in 2010 (just before major foreign operations)

6. Oil production before the operations was at 383,000 barrels per day.

7. The debt-to-GDP ratio improved substantially: from ~152% in 2000 down to ~30% in 2010

8. Assad oversaw real growth in nominal GDP and some economic reform

9. Classiest looking president and first wife in ( Vogue magazine) than any of them in Middle East

10. Most educated couple that denounced any form of religious sectarianism as he is Alawite and his wife Asma a Sunni

So, when Angela & signers say they give " Unconditional support and solidarity to all incarcerated kin fighting for our collective liberation.” What reactionary abstract nonsense. Solidarity with whom, on whose terms, & toward what political end? https://t.co/3ur3G5jVBQ

Was today’s catastrophe in Nepal truly “just nature”?

Dozens dead. Hundreds missing. Entire villages erased. Bridges gone. Hydropower projects smashed by a sudden wall of water racing down from the Nepal-Tibet frontier.
Reports point to an upstream avalanche or glacial surge as the trigger—releasing a force the rivers simply could not contain. Local rainfall does not appear to fully explain the scale of what unfolded.
And yet… was this inevitable?
Or was it the predictable result of decades of deliberate choices—choices made not in Kathmandu, but in donor capitals and NGO boardrooms far away?
Nepal sits at the roof of the world. Its rivers demand storage. Large multi-purpose dams are not vanity projects; they are tools of survival—holding flood peaks, releasing water safely, generating power, buffering extremes. But those dams were never built.
Why?
•Western NGOs and their funders spent years blocking major storage projects through environmental absolutism, indigenous-rights campaigns, and relentless lawfare.
•Flagship schemes like Arun III were driven into withdrawal. West Seti and others faced the same coordinated opposition.
•The result? A hydropower sector dominated by run-of-river plants that produce electricity in good times… and offer almost zero flood regulation when the Himalayas unleash sudden fury.
Sovereignty over Nepal’s own rivers was surrendered. Decisions about what the country was allowed to build were shaped by external vetoes rather than national needs.
And the same networks did not stop at infrastructure. They shaped the political class itself—flooding “civil society,” media, and governance programs with hundreds of millions. Parallel power structures emerged, more responsive to foreign grant conditions than to the people who live with the floods.
When disaster strikes, the public is told it is climate, nature, or bad luck.
The deeper structural choices that left the country defenseless receive far less scrutiny.
Who really left Nepal exposed?
Who decided that foreign ideological preferences mattered more than the practical tools of survival?
And how many more times will ordinary Nepalis pay the price?

The full story—how the dams were blocked, how the politics were engineered, and why this tragedy was anything but pure chance—is laid out in devastating detail here:

Read it. Share it. Question the narrative. Because the mountains will keep sending water. The only question is whether Nepal will ever be allowed to manage it.

BREAKING: New footage shows absolutely horrifying scenes along the China-Nepal border amid devastating flash floods, hundreds missing, many feared dead

[Kevork Almassian @KevorkAlmassian]

They cry that Arab governments don’t support Palestinians, then spend years antagonizing the one Arab government that actually delivered arms to Palestinians.

And of course, their source is Al Jazeera.

Notice the selective outrage. They obsess over Hafez al-Assad coming to power through a coup—as if coups were some extraordinary event in the Syria of that era—yet have almost nothing to say about Jolani's coup and reaching Damascus after years of Zionist sponsorship.

Virtually every Arab ruler they tolerate sits in power without anything resembling a democratic mandate. Yet Al Jazeera managed to convince an entire generation that Assad was the one Arab leader they absolutely had to hate.

Who benefited from that obsession?
Certainly not Palestine.

They will recycle videos from 2011 and 2012 forever when atrocities are attributed to the Syrian government. But show them the endless footage of beheadings, lynchings, suicide bombings, kidnappings, sectarian massacres, rape, executions and ethnic cleansing committed by the Takfiri armed factions, and suddenly their Wi-Fi stops working.

And now many of those same people don't hate Jolani the same way they hated Assad because, underneath all the slogans about democracy and human rights, sectarianism and al-Jazeeratism was doing most of the thinking.

A Sunni jihadist can be washed, dressed in a suit and presented as a statesman. But Assad's Syria had to be destroyed.

Brilliant.

They still don’t understand that Syria falling into the hands of Takfiri factions was one of the final nails in the coffin of Palestinian statehood.

They helped destroy one of the most important states in the regional architecture supporting Palestine, then turned around and started crying that nobody supports Palestine.

At some point, you cannot help people who are committed to misunderstanding the world.

The fact that Palestinians are still regurgitating Al Jazeera debunked BS that led to the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Syrians opposed to foreign-terrorist intervention in Syria and the Takfiri horrors that they now endure - is indicative of how successful the Zionist bloc brainwashing project has been.

They are not even prepared to discuss their 5 Pillars nonsense, none of them were on the ground in Syria, none of them appreciate the savagery suffered by Syrians because of their wilful ignorance.

Their 'Free Syrian Army' Muslim Brotherhood heroes carried out some of the worst massacres of Syrian minorities - Alawite, Shia, Christian, Druze - in history. I covered many of them, on the ground. I would not even know where to start.. but they maintain, even now, the denigration of the Syrian Arab Army and allies that died to protect the Resistance Axis, Palestine and their own families against the thugs and savages these people call "rebels".

Anyway here is an account of just a few of the massacres of civilians by the Free Syrian Army allied with Nusra Front etc in all regions of Syria:

One of the all-time great Rock Hall moments: Dolly’s “Jolene” with Rob Halford (Judas Priest), Pat Benatar, Annie Lennox, Simon Le Bon (Duran Duran), Pink, and Sheryl Crow. Zac Brown Band held it down as the house band.

Rest easy, Dolly 🤘

Syria wasn't removed from the State Sponsor of Terrorism list until Al-Qaeda/ISIS took control of the place, and now run it in the interest of US + Israel. That makes sense given that it was the US + Allies that funded ISIS + Al-Qaeda in the first place...

Al-Qaeda: *takes over Syria*

The United States: *Removes Syria from State Sponsor of Terrorism list*

Mumia Abu-Jamal sent a message about his actual feelings about the US-Israeli war of aggression against Iran. He wrote it on two paper plates. It is more eloquent than the Guardian letter, whose right to put his name down needs to be questioned. Who signed for Mumia?

A transcription of the text on the plates:

‘My young friends,

Iran is showing the world (especially the 3rd world) how to fight against the Empire. Their drones are rewriting the rules of war. And countries across the Global South are studying this phase of the war for that use!

They remind me of Vietnam poor country that whipped the most powerful army on earth... That's where we are today.

Love...
Mumia’

[Vijay Prashad @vijayprashad]

In the scandal of the Open Letter, the @guardian should do an investigation - given the following facts that have now emerged.

1. Mumia Abu-Jamal did not give consent for his signature on this letter.
2. Several initial signatories, such as Robin DG Kelley, have now retracted their signatures saying that the letter that was published was not what was shown to them.

a. Why did the Guardian's editorial team not check to make sure that the signatures were accurate? They could have asked to see emails or - in the case of Mumia - letters to verify the signatures on such a consequential statement.

b. Why did the Guardian not verify with the signatories that what they were publishing was indeed what the signatories had read?

The @guardian is responsible for ensuring accuracy. It turns out that they let slip a poorly executed intelligence operation.

[Bojana M. @BojanaNotes]

@richimedhurst And who the F is saying the US is doing something that hasn't already been done before? 🙄

[Danny Haiphong @GeopoliticsDH]

We must Free Mumia and ALL US political prisoners, but this is unconscionable.

This letter from a litinay detached US-based academics claiming Iranians are trapped between two oppressors only exposes their irrelevance.

Six months into a war that IRAN has won and the US EMPIRE started as the cherry on top of their regional genocide from Gaza to Lebanon and these so-called "intellectuals" want to attack the ONLY country in the region part of, and standing up for, Palestine and the resistance.

This is liberal imperialism plain and simple. And a waste of everyone's time.

Angela Davis, Judith Butler, Jairus Banaji, Ruth Wilson Gilmore and Rashid Khalidi are not complete idiots. They know that the CIA and Mossad, per mainstream reporting, are actively organizing mass terrorist sabotage operations inside Iran, including being behind the January terrorist operation. This is not some arcane hidden "tankie" conspiracy theory, it was literally reported in the New York times and elsewhere. They openly boast about it, and they say that they are still doing it.

So why come out with an article that casts the Iranian state as inherently evil and fascist and authoritarian and in need of destruction, particularly when it is being waged war on by Israel and their own US regime?

Ok, let's say Iran follows your prescriptions, and dismantles its entire coercive state apparatus. It abolishes the IRGC, the prisons, the police forces, all of it is abolished.

What do you think happens after that, you utter fucking depraved pseudo-radical frauds?

What happens after is Syria and Libya on steroids. Unless you are a liar, you know that too.

And of course Iran, like any other state least of all your own with its global genocidal Zionist empire, will never do that because it is not suicidal, and its first and foremost task is to protect the sovereignty of the nation and its people. There is nothing "purported" or "ostensible" or "pretend" about this, as you say in your vile letter: Iran is among the only active anti-imperialist forces in the world today. That's an objective fact, and your pseudo-radical word plays in The Guardian cannot obscure it. We can all see it with our own eyes.

But the sole purpose of your letter, its sole function, isn't to affect any geopolitical realities, it's much more modest and personal than that: it is to act as a certificate to launder yourselves in the Western pundit academic class as the Good Pseudo-Radicals, so you can keep getting lucrative invites to talk at Princeton and Harvard and Yale and sell your pseudo-radical status for cash, which Davis and others have been doing for decades now as they demand you vote for genocidal Zionist Democrats every election cycle. This same crowd always puts out those hectoring letters ahead of an election for this purpose; suddenly "lesser evilism" becomes a moral necessity over immediate abolition when it comes to maintaining their genocidal Zionist empire and its coercive institutions, because they greatly personally benefit from it.
