In the Bonaparte palace in Rome at Italy three people entered who claimed to be activists against her climate change and they included me soup a historian table by Van Gogh, as a sign of protest.
In their “target” came the “Sower”, a work that dates from 1888 and depicts a peasant sowing his field, with a huge sun in the background. In fact, it is one of 50 works by Van Gogh loaned by the Dutch Kreller Miller Museum in Italy for this exhibition that opened to the public on October 8 in Rome.
“Attack on art is an abhorrent act that is categorically condemned. Culture, which is the basis of our identity, must be protected and certainly not used as a mouthpiece for other forms of protest,” Culture Minister Gennaro Sangiuliano said in a statement.
According to the climate advocacy group Last Generation, this action was “a cry of desperation” that cannot be equated with vandalism. The group warned that “non-violent actions” would continue “until citizens receive answers from their governments to their demand to stop using natural gas and coal” and invest in renewable energy.
In a video taken at the exhibition site, two young women can be seen pouring a liquid towards the painting. A third then joins them and they all stick their hands to the wall while the visitors to the exhibition boo them.
