A Lovely Protest from ArtAgainstCuts

Here is a lovely protest of an "Andy Warhol" auction... The banner they raise says "Orgy of the Rich" and they imitate the sounds of a bunch of people having a mass orgy... A funny way of protesting post-modern and elitist art...

Art Against Cuts is a group of socialist-minded people who struggles government cuts on art education. Although their protest did not stop the auction, it caused a good interruption. I hope more of their creative protests will come.




This is what they wrote in their blog about themselves:

This blog is an umbrella space for students, artists and cultural workers to display and align their ideas and actions against the cuts.

We are fighting back against the most significant governmental attack on the public sector in living memory. In the arts we are anticipating feeling the full weight of this socially irresponsible policy, especially in terms of funding for arts education. We are in solidarity with the other sectors fighting against the cuts and openly welcome co-ordinated action in creative and innovative ways.
