Description

This week's text is an essay called: Boycott Zabludowicz. 
Since 2014, there has been a call to boycott the Zabludowicz Collection, a gallery in London that is owned and funded by Zabludowicz Art Trust, and its associated institutions: Daata Editions and Times Square Space. The Zabludowicz Art Trust is financially associated with companies that have dealt arms to Israel's military, invested in property in Occupied Palestine, and that provide maintenance and services to the Israeli Airforce.
In this essay, I tell you why the boycott exists, why it is important and impactful, I tell you how the Zabludowicz Collection goes about operating despite the boycott, and then I explain some nitty-gritty practicalities about the boycott as #praxis. If you’re ready to dismiss this because you already know where you stand: just hear me out. I’ll even run you through both sides.
If you want to sign the BDZ boycott, and pledge to refuse your work, labour and the sale of your artwork to the Zabludowicz Art Trust, or visit any of its institutions, you can do so via this form.
For more information, please visit the BDZ website.
