Climate activists – following on from cementing up holes on a Lisbon golf course – threw red paint today over a Picasso at the Belém Museum of Contemporary Art. Fortunately, the protest did not damage the painting (“Femme dans un fauteuil (métamorphose)” painted in 1929), which is “totally protected with an acrylic”, Delfim Sardo, of the museum, told reporters. PSP police since arrested the perpetrators, only after they had posed for several photographs.
