The jury for this year’s Venice Biennale, the art world’s most important event, resigned after a furor over its decision to exclude artists from countries accused of crimes against humanity www.nytimes.com/2026/04/30/a...
Kudos to the jury at the Venice Biennale for doing what responsible people should do: refuse to consider giving awards to artists from countries that commit crimes against humanity. (That should include the US.)
"The #Biennale said that this year it would let visitors vote for the best national pavilion." What a joke: one of the world’s most prominent art competitions is being turned into an episode of The Voice, under pressure from Israel.

'Fainaru, 66, said in an interview that he was happy that the jury had resigned. “Their decision discriminated against me on a racial basis,” he said.' Nope! No! Sorry man, that's not what's happening here. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/30/a...

Artists should not be made scapegoats, responsible for the actions of their governments. Should we ban Russian ballet dancers? Venice Biennale Jury Resigns Amid Tension Over Awards Ban www.nytimes.com/2026/04/30/a....
