‘Art has to be strong enough to make room for itself. It has to be strong enough to withstand the public’s lack of understanding.'—Agnes Denes

"Richard Serra was a titan who transformed the very definition of sculpture and drawing. More than that, he changed us, how we see and feel our way toward an experience that is elemental and sublime. He put us at the center of his art."

“A tragedy that was completely avoidable.” I spoke to Josh Paul, who resigned from the State Dept, about over 100 people killed in Gaza City today amidst an aid delivery, the IDF opening fire, and a stampede, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza. Here’s what he told me.

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

Two days ago, Jan Egeland @NRC_Egeland was in Gaza and warned that “the chaos around the aid… is becoming worse and worse because there's so little aid coming in… I'm pretty shaken actually from what I saw.”

Now, over 100 killed in exactly the circumstances he feared.

This is Aaron Bushnell, 25, a US airman who set himself on fire outside the Israeli Embassy, in protest at Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.

He died yelling: 'FREE PALESTINE!'

RIP.

Shocking footage shows unimaginable destruction in📍#Gaza city, including our health centre.

+70% of civilian infrastructure- including homes, hospitals & schools- have been destroyed or severely damaged.

84% of health facilities have been affected by attacks.

Nowhere is safe.

Week after week, the streets remain full of people demanding an end to the massacre in Gaza.

We will never go away so long as the Palestinian people live under occupation.

Ceasefire now!

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

A rare opportunity to listen to the voice of Palestine, unfiltered - as it was heard in the UN. Every one of its eleven minutes is worth it.

I have no idea why the Empire State Building is red, green, and black tonight. But hell yeah.

“In the current circumstances we do not believe that there is a space in Germany for an open exchange of ideas and the development of complex and nuanced artistic approaches that documenta artists and curators deserve.” https://t.co/fzzs1RBKcH
