Shocking and convoluted reasoning revealed in the museum’s abrupt statement on canceling #CandiceBreitz’s exhibition.

[ArtAsiaPacific @artasiapacific]

On November 24, a museum in the southwestern Germany city of Saarbrücken quashed Berlin-based artist Candice Breitz’s 2024 exhibition over her condemnation of Israel’s retaliatory assault on Gaza. Breitz grew up in Apartheid South Africa and is Jewish.

@RamyInocencio Handsome!

[Yuk King Tan @YukKingTan]

I have sympathy for institutions: they have to do serious scholarship, educate a wide audience & also bring to vibrant life the art & artefacts of the world…but this statement is an unforced error! 😂‘Asian names can be confusing’ is tragic language for the British Museum lol

[British Museum @britishmuseum]

... We aim to be understandable by 16 year olds. Sometimes Asian names can be confusing, so we have to be careful about using too many.

1/2 I love looking at this painting by Tui Emma Gillies, which sits above our dinner table. With her vaka menaced by Hokusai's wave, Tui stages a confrontation between Tonga & Japan. There was one tantalising near-contact between the 2 societies.
