Anish Kapoor has said that the US should be excluded from the Venice Biennale because of the country’s “abhorrent politics of hate” and its “incessant warmongering”.
The artist, who represented Britain at the 1990 edition, said he commended the biennale jury’s decision to resign in protest at the inclusion of Israel and Russia just a few days before the event, which is billed as the “Olympics of art”.
