anoncentral: A naked member of the activist group Liberate Tate lies on the floor of Tate’s classical sculpture exhibit room drenched in an oil-like substance to protest Tate’s ongoing partnership with BP. The protest, which took place yesterday to mark the one-year anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion, lasted 87 minutes — one for every day oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico. By: Anonymous ART of Revolution I’m going to be honest and say that usually I don’t “get” protests like this. Most of them, at least to me, fail to make a relevant statement. But this is gorgeous, in an affecting way too.
