«Our society is obsessed with objects, but he is not interested in protecting the future of his children. We cannot accept it! », He affirmed in a post on Twitter Ultima Generazione.

Fortunately, none of the artwork was destroyed. Both the Van Gogh and the Klimt were covered by glass. In the case of Warhol’s BMW, it was just covered in flour, which apparently can be easily removed without damaging the paint that the American artist added to it.
Similarly, a few weeks ago several members of another climate activist organization, known as “Extinction Rebellion”, went to the Paris Motor Show and dumped a black liquid, believed to be oil or paint, on several Ferraris.
