Two members from the group 'Last Generation' threw dye over Gustav Klimt's work 'life and death' at Vienna's Leopold Museum.
One of them appeared to squeeze a bright orange bag of oil on the painting while the other glued his hands to the protective glass. In the video shared on social media. one security guard runs over to restrain one of the activists before the police arrive.
These activists should not deface art gallery's paintings, wax museums pieces, nor m25 highways if they glue themselves run over them let them think that they are martyrs.
joshua_bly This event has to do with Colorado because…? No wonder Colorado’s GOP took such a shellacking last week. This GOP communications director seems more concerned about Austrian paintings, protected by glass, than rebuilding his party’s brand. Denial Diversion copolitics
Protected by “protective glass”, as the article says. Did I mention the glass?
How is destroying artistic expression a form of activism? I don't understand. Do you know who else destroys art? Fascists, Despots and Religious Extremists. Throw oil on a politician or oligarch by all means but leave the works of art alone.

Climate activist attacks Gustav Klimt painting while another glues himself to the frameIn a video of the incident, which the group posted online, one of the activists can be heard shouting that 'we have known about the problem for 50 years - we must finally act, otherwise the planet will be broken'.

Replace 'Activist' with 'Vandal' please. Looks like he would benefit from a fractured skull.
