Just Stop Oil’s controversial demonstration
Last Friday, two activists of “Just Stop Oil” (the group that focuses on climate crisis concerning fossil fuels) have thrown tomato soup over one of the most famous paintings in the world – “Sunflowers” by Van Gogh, at the National Gallery in London. After that, the girls glued themselves into the wall. Thankfully, the painting was protected by glass, so it was just the frame which has some minor damage, but overall the painting stayed unharmed.
In my opinion,
cost of oil crisis is an really important problem we need to deal with, however
I don’t think that damaging art is a good idea. Those activists for sure
drew attention to the topic, but I don’t quite understand why they would want
to destroy art pieces completely unrelated to the problem. Overall, I think
their intentions are rather good, but their actions are inappropriate and they
should find other ways to work against this issue.
