Ai Weiwei Speaks Out After His Sculpture Is Destroyed by Notorious Vandal (news.artnet.com)

“The man destroyed the large blue and white Porcelain Cube at a busy private opening for the exhibition “Who am I?” at Palazzo Fava in Bologna on the evening of September 21. Local police arrested a 57-year-old Czech man who has been identified in Italian media as Vaclav Pisvejc, a provocateur and self-proclaimed artist...

“Ai himself is known for smashing works as well. The exhibition’s curator Arturo Galansino noted that several works in the show document the destruction of a precious ceramic. The most famous of these is Dropping a Han Dynasty Urn (1995), a triptych of black-and-white photographs in which the artist holds and then drops a 2,000-year-old vessel. It is a commentary on China’s deliberate erasure of its cultural heritage.”

Okay so this artist also destroys artifacts that are thousands of years old.

“The destruction that Ai Weiwei depicts in his works is a warning against the violence and injustice perpetrated by those in power,” he said. “[It] has nothing to do with this reckless and senseless act carried out by a habitual troublemaker seeking attention by damaging artists, works, monuments, and institutions.”

Imho there are other ways to prove that point.

However it is despicable that his artwork was destroyed by a trouble maker and the perpetrator should be dealt with accordingly.

Hexbear the most wholesome community? I need to wash my eyes after reading that.

Although I’m curious, what itch does it itch for you?

I’m genuinely unsurprised my previous comment got removed but anyway at least thanks for answering and providing an example.

Most of the revenue of Mozilla Corporation comes from Google (81% in 2022[2]) in exchange of making it the default search engine in Firefox.

Source: wikipedia

Other issues I have with Firefox is the telemetry bits, the way they handle some of their employees (laying one guy off because he has cancer), the lack of meaningful updates and features in the last decade, CEO granting herself a nice pay rise after doing well nothing really. The list goes on and on honestly.

Don’t get me wrong, you should still use Firefox or a Firefox derived browser if you care about a free internet. I myself use firefox (although I just switched to Zen browser on my PC which is based on Firefox). However we shouldn’t be blind ourselves just because we hate anything google based and/or closed sourced. Firefox is still back by a for profit company which is, as I quoted earlier, backed at least by 80% by google.

For the positive side now it seems that in the last 2-3 months firefox has been pumping out meaningful updates (even on mobile). Things seem to be taking a positive turn recently and I’m actually a bit excited to see where firefox is going to go from here.

You’re being down voted but you’re right. This is the absolute nail in the coffin to seal his win. his culties are going to be mobilised more than ever now.

TheFrirish ,

I don’t think you realise what a fascist authoritarian is my lad.

TheFrirish ,

Imho they were not in a state of peace anymore they were at war and the crackdown was completely justified and long overdue. However in the long run there will be some issues and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Hero become the villain.

I wouldn’t count on a hidden arsenal imho after staying more than a year in Mainland China they have certain things that are quite impressive but a lot of it is built quickly En Masse. They struggle terribly with innovation but honestly that’s just down to their education. However they are quite capable at copying a certain design and improving on it quickly that’s basically the greatest Mainlander strength at this point.
