2. Downstream from 1: I used to read blogs dedicated to analyzing rep of marginalized ppl in literature, and they would get a bunch of angry comments about how “art is sacred, stop squashing the artist’s vision”.

3. Artwashing is a common enough phenomenon to have its own dedicated Wikipedia page.

There's a reason the sloplords wanted Chance to still for them!

Artwashing is political.
In my wildest dreams I could never have imagined a more gratuitous sign that AI is a bubble than “chance the rapper, sponsored by coreweave.” It’s beautiful. It’ll be in a movie someday

Both artists in Norway's MGP and Sanremo have stated they're boycotting due to Israel's presence.

Levante said she won't go to Eurovision if she wins Sanremo due to the artwashing.

Sander Silva & Victorjus have canceled their participation in MGP due to same reason given.

I'm happy to blame years of artwashing by hollywood and the insidious propaganda of the Murdoch media for most of the ignorance and stupidity that I see around me.
Most of the disinformation seems to come from that BS factory.

Nog een reden om je ING- bankrekening op te zeggen.
De andere redenen zijn dat de ING investeert in fossiele energie en in Israël.
En de ING doet aan artwashing via het Rijksmuseum zodat het lijkt of die oranje leeuw goed bezig is. Bah.

Dag ING 👋
Lijkt me een uitgelezen moment om gedag te zeggen tegen de micro-sponsor ING.
ING is een bank met investeringen in Israël (genocide)en de fossiele energie.
Door het Rijksmuseum te sponsoren doen ze aan artwashing.
Het Rijksmuseum kan nu gedag zeggen tegen ING 🤗

A call for undermining #colomboscope as it works to further blur and push the genocide and oppression of the Eelam Tamil people in the background by creating a sense of a normal state and society while mass graves are still being found and unraveled www.instagram.com/p/DTGQc1NAvj...

Cinephilic culture cares more for a list’s ranking than the world the films on that list reflect. This is how artwashing becomes an unscrutinized faculty of criticism, conceding to the cultural industries before even putting up a fight.

Art shouldn’t be a PR shield for governments accused of atrocities. 🎭

Fossil operatives trying to defend the Artwashing they buy from Cultural Institutions, shows they are vulnerable to the loss of reputational services. Serious Shame on the institutions selling that goodwill, created by decades of artists, to the most poisonous people on the planet. #CultureUnstained

Music isn’t a shield for oppression. Massive Attack leads the charge, demanding Live Nation drop operations in Israel. Enough of the artwashing. This is genocide, not a concert. Stand against complicity or be part of the problem. #mikronews #BoycottApartheid #FreePalestine…

Musicians Demand Live Nation Exit Israel as Industry Boycott Against Cultural “Artwashing” Intensifies
A Global Music Revolt Gains Volume A growing number of influential musicians are no longer separating art from accountability. In a sharply worded open letter, hundreds of artists are demanding that Live Nation Entertainment, the world’s most powerful live music company, end its operations in Israel. The letter accuses the company of enabling cultural “artwashing” while Palestinians in Gaza face mass civilian deaths, destruction, and displacement.

"We cannot stay silent while Live Nation Israel glorifies the genocidal Israeli military that has killed 70,000+ #Palestinians in #Gaza", the letter reads. "We echo long-standing Palestinian calls for accountability over its years of artwashing of Israeli apartheid & now genocide."
Over 600 artists sign open letter urging Live Nation to drop Israel subsidiary
Brian Eno, Massive Attack, Josey Rebelle, Dan Snaith (aka Caribou), Nicolás Jaar and GROVE are among the hundreds of artists and music workers signing in support of a recent call to action by PACBI

Following on from 2024 winner Nemo doing the same yesterday, this is great solidarity with the Palestinian people. The EBU is wrecking its own contest to preserve Israel's artwashing of genocide but the tide has turned and artists and the public reject that! #BoycottEurovision
