LONDON — Over 100 art workers gathered outside Tate Britain on Tuesday evening, December 3, during the ceremony for the 2024 Turner Prize, to protest against the institution’s ties to groups connected to Israeli military interests. Inside the museum, artist and Turner Prize winner Jasleen Kaur took to the stage and expressed solidarity with the protesters and the Palestinian cause. “I want the separation between the expression of politics in the gallery and the practice of politics in life to disappear,” Kaur said, addressing attendees. “I want the institution to understand: If you want us inside, you need to listen to us outside. Ceasefire now, arms embargo now, free Palestine.” Outside, activist groups including Artists + Culture Workers, Artistsʼ Union England, Boycott Zabludowicz, Goldsmiths for Palestine, Strike Outset, University for the Arts London (UAL) Students for Justice in Palestine, and Workers for a Free Palestine demanded that Tate cut ties with organizations and companies they say are financially supporting or helping “artwash” Israel’s attacks on Gaza and the Occupied West Bank — including Barclays, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HP), Outset Contemporary Art Fund, the Zabludowicz Art Trust , and Zabludowicz Art Projects.

Daily Weekly Opportunities “The art sector leans progressive, and yet institutions are stuck on this [issue],” said Zarina Muhammad, White Pube art critic, speaking during the protest. “They are the ones with all the money, they are the ones with all the resources, all the power, and yet we have to tell them how to act.” A selection of artworks from the Gaza Biennale , a roaming exhibition of 60 artists in and from Gaza was projected on Tate Britainʼs exterior walls. “Art exists to express the pain of this world and the dream of a different one,” another speaker, historian and organizer Barnaby Raine, told the crowd. “We know that creative spirit, that refuses to accept that the violence of this world is all there is, that there can be something better, we know that spirit is carried by the artists of Gaza.” Significantly outnumbered by the pro-Palestine rally, a small Israel-supporting counter-protest of around 25 people held signs that read “Don’t let Hamas kidnap our culture.” The group dissipated after a while. Tate has not yet responded to Hyperallergic ’s request for comment. The protest came in the wake of a report released by the United Nations Special Committee last month that found Israel’s warfare methods in Gaza “consistent with genocide, including use of starvation as a weapon of war.” Also in November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas commander Mohammed Deif. A judge found that Netanyahu and Gallant bore “criminal responsibility” for “the war crime of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population” in Gaza. The protest also followed an open letter addressed to Tate last week calling on the institution to cut ties with Outset and Zabludowicz Art and to “take a clear stance against the artwashing of genocide and apartheid.” The missive has been signed by more than 1,200 artists and cultural workers, including 2024 Turner Prize nominees Pio Abad and Claudette Johnson and winner Jasleen Kaur. Also among the signatories were previous Turner Prize winners Jesse Darling, Tai Shani, Lawrence Abu Hamdan, and Helen Cammock; Palestinian artist Jumana Manna; and artists Sophia Al Maria, Rene Matić, and Hannah Black. Since 1990, Zabludowicz Collection co-founder Poju Zabludowicz has been the CEO of the private real estate investment company Tamares Group, which the letter says has provided telecommunication infrastructure for Israeli settlements considered illegal under international law, including several on privately owned Palestinian land. Hyperallergic has contacted the Zabludowicz Collection for comment. The letter also takes issue with the Outset Contemporary Art Fund, which provides funding support for Tate acquisitions , over Outset’s corporate partnership with the Israeli diamond company Leviev, accused of human rights abuses . Leviev’s founder, Lev Leviev, is accused of profiting from illegal settlements in the West Bank. Earlier this year, the campaign group Strike Outset drew attention to the fact that the co-founder of the Outset Contemporary Art Fund, Candida Gertler, and her husband Zak are close friends of Benjamin Netanyahu and hosted his 70th birthday party at their Tel Aviv home in 2019. According to the letter, Candida Gertler and Anita and Poju Zabludowicz have been members of Tate’s International Council since at least 2008, and Gertler has been an executive member of the committee for over a decade. On November 29, four days after the letter was published, Gertler announced her resignation from Outset Contemporary Art Fund and all voluntary positions within United Kingdom arts institutions with immediate effect. In a statement , Strike Outset said it was “a win for our movement — but our campaign continues,” adding, “This is structural, not personal.” The boycott, the group said, would remain in place “until Outset Contemporary Art Fund closes its Israel chapter, and cuts all ties with the Israeli occupation.” We hope you enjoyed this article!

Wednesday had claimed eight points from their last four games in climbing up to ninth in the table, but this was Danny Rohl’s Owls side’s first taste of defeat since their derby-day loss to Sheffield United a month ago. In winning for the fourth game in a row Rovers also kept a clean sheet for the fourth successive match. Advertisement Advertisement Both teams took turns to hit the crossbar in a first half which lacked real quality, firstly the visitors through Lewis Travis before Di’Shon Bernard saw a header rattle the upright at the other end. Blackburn forced the issue in the second half and found their reward through Gueye with his first league goal of the season to push Rovers into fifth. Rovers captain Travis returned to the side following suspension while Joe Rankin-Costello was also named in the XI in place of Lewis Baker and Callum Brittain, who was ruled out through illness. Rohl re-introduced key man Barry Bannan back in the starting fold in one of four changes for his team. Advertisement Advertisement The Owls mustered the first effort on target when Dominic Iorfa jumped highest to Marvin Johnson’s teasing delivery but goalkeeper Aynsley Pears was equal to it. Wednesday started to look the brighter of the two teams and after Dominic Hyam brought down Anthony Musaba just outside the area, Josh Windass’ resulting free-kick needed to be saved by the diving Pears. Bannan was next to have a crack from distance as Wednesday enjoyed their best spell of the match but he saw his effort deflect wide. Blackburn almost took the lead in stunning fashion as the ball fell for Travis outside the area and he rifled the ball off the underside of the bar. Advertisement Advertisement It was the hosts’ turn to be denied by the woodwork a couple of minutes later when Bannan picked out Bernard, who nodded onto the crossbar. Wednesday keeper James Beadle was a bystander for much of the first half but was called into action within the first two minutes of the second period to deny Tyrhys Dolan with Rovers’ first shot on target. Rovers caused more problems in the opening 10 minutes of the second half than they managed in the whole of the first, Todd Cantwell threading through to the onrushing Dolan but Beadle smothered his effort to safety. The visitors broke the deadlock in the 68th minute when Rankin-Costello’s ball picked out substitute Gueye, who headed home from close range. Wednesday went in search of an equaliser and Michael Smith directed a header goalwards at the back post but Pears scrambled to safety as Rovers held on for yet another win.

Victor Wembanyama went to a park in New York City and played 1-on-1 with fans on Saturday. He even lost a couple of games. Not in basketball, though. Wemby was playing chess. And this wasn't on a whim: He knows how to play and even brought his own chess set. Before the San Antonio Spurs left New York for a flight to Minnesota, Wembanyama put out the call on social media: “Who wants to meet me at the SW corner of Washington Square park to play chess? Im there,” Wembanyama wrote. It was 9:36 a.m. People began showing up almost immediately. Washington Square Park is a known spot for chess in New York — Bobby Fischer among others have famously played there, and it's been used for multiple movie scenes featuring the game. Wembanyama was there for an hour in the rain, from about 10-11 a.m. He played four games, winning two and losing two — he told Bleacher Report afterward that both of the losses were to professional chess players — before departing to catch the Spurs' flight. Wembanyama had been trying to get somewhere to play chess for the bulk of the team's time in New York — the Spurs played the Knicks on Christmas and won at Brooklyn on Friday night. The schedule never aligned, until Saturday morning. And even with bad weather, he bundled up to make it happen. He posed for photos with a couple of dozen people who showed up, braving a morning of cold rain to play chess with one of the NBA's biggest stars. “We need an NBA players only Chess tournament, proceeds go to the charity of choice of the winner,” he wrote on social media after his chess trip was over. Wembanyama is averaging 25.2 points and 10.1 rebounds this season, his second in the NBA after winning rookie of the year last season. The Spurs play at Minnesota on Sunday.TLSI stock touches 52-week low at $3.5 amid market challengesLINCOLN — There’s a cost to Nebraska football embracing its 34-year tradition of Black Friday games. A chance to reflect much, for one thing. Or celebrate, for another. NU on Saturday ended a 10-game losing streak to Wisconsin and a seven-season bowl drought in one fell swoop, but when the Huskers reconvened Monday, a short week of preparation for a nasty rival stared them right in the face. “We haven’t even had a team meeting since the game,” Nebraska coach Matt Rhule said at his weekly press conference. “We walked in today, 8 o’clock, and it’s Iowa special teams (prep). No time for ‘hey, great job.’ There’s no time for it.” Bad memories still linger in the Huskers’ minds, though. The Hawkeyes have won eight of the last nine in this series — six of those by one score, including last year, a 13-10 gut punch that kept Nebraska from making a bowl. If Iowa blew kisses at NU in 2019 on a game-winning field goal, they did something else in 2023. “Their players are waving at our guys — ‘hey, have a good Christmas!’ — that was painful,” Rhule said. “That was really painful. So I don’t doubt that our guys will be ready. But their guys will be ready. It really just comes down to football.” Win the turnover battle. Block and tackle well. Make plays when they’re available. Execute the way offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen wants. To focus on those things — without the psychological pressure of a long December hanging over the program’s head — is a nice bonus to clinching the bowl before heading to Kinnick Stadium for a 6:30 p.m. game on NBC. The temps will be in the 20s; Nebraska, practicing outside most of the year, is prepared for that. Iowa’s offense, though fitted with a new coordinator, resembles a more effective version of the Hawkeyes’ recent attacks, with a blend of power and zone runs executed by running back Kaleb Johnson, second nationally in rush yards. Iowa ranks first in the Big Ten — and 13 th nationally — in rushing yards per game. “They’ve run some people off the field just by running the football down their throat,” Rhule said. So, Iowa is Iowa is Iowa. It was Iowa 10 years ago, when it lost 37-34 to Nebraska two days before the firing of Bo Pelini. It was Iowa two years ago on the day it lost to NU just as the school was finalizing a deal for Rhule. And at 7-4 overall — 5-3 in the Big Ten — this season, it is Iowa now. Nebraska, on the other hand, moved from a program with no bowl berths this decade to at least one this winter. It saw, in its win over Wisconsin, a work ethic rewarded, a process confirmed and a rare midseason offensive coordinator hire vindicated. “They know that they can do it, they know they’re capable of it,” Rhule said. “So let’s continue to do it. That’s the expectation now. What was once possible, now we know we can do it, so let’s do it.” Rhule anticipates Nebraska’s roster will be healthier after the flu ran through the team last week, and NU’s offense now manages playing time the way the Husker defensive coaches have — by who practices well during the week. That translated into backups who got more snaps against Wisconsin than other games this season — Emmett Johnson, Luke Lindenmeyer and Nate Boerkircher — and who stood more often on the sideline. That’s Holgorsen’s effect, to some degree, and it’s the new price of success. "Dana's brought a standard, offensively, that, I'm not going to say we didn't have before,” Rhule said, “but he has the experience to kind of follow through on it that will be good for us all to learn from.” The lessons learned in a game are the lessons learned in a season, Rhule said. The week is short, the prep is detailed and Iowa is Iowa. Who might Nebraska be? “We have to make sure the football’s right,” Rhule said. Get local news delivered to your inbox!

US ski star Mikaela Shiffrin said Wednesday that she's "starting to feel a little bit more human" after suffering a puncture wound in a giant slalom crash but confirmed she won't race at Beaver Creek, Colorado, this month. "This is another fairly ambiguous injury and really hard to put a timeline of when I'll be either back on snow or back to racing," Shiffrin said in a video posted on social media. "But I do know that I will not be starting in Beaver Creek." Shiffrin had already said after Saturday's crash she didn't expect to be ready for the Colorado races, a downhill on December 14 and a super-G on December 15. On Wednesday, she said that whatever object caused the puncture in her abdomen also left "tore a cavern" in her oblique muscles. She said she had also undergone further testing to check for possible damage to her colon. "There were some air bubbles where the puncture came pretty close to the colon," she said. "Last night's check confirmed that my colon is, indeed, intact." Shiffrin was closing in on a once unimaginable 100th World Cup victory when she crashed in the second leg of the giant slalom at Killington, Vermont, on Saturday. She hit one gate and tumbled through another before sliding into the catch fencing and was taken from the hill on a sled. She won't miss any races this weekend because the two women's giant slaloms scheduled for Tremblant, Canada, were cancelled because of lack of snow. However, Shiffrin said she would be sorry not to resume her bid for a 100th World Cup win on the circuit's next US stop. "This is a really big bummer, not to be able to race Birds of Prey," Shiffrin said. "But on the other hand I was really lucky and I'm really looking forward to cheering my teammates on racing Beaver Creek." In 2023, Shiffrin broke Ingemar Stenmark's record of 86 World Cup wins, a mark once considered unassailable. Compatriot Lindsey Vonn has the second-most alpine World Cup wins by a woman with 82. bb/js

Missed kicks. Poor tackling. Costly penalties. Week 12 was filled with sloppy play around the NFL, leading to some upsets and surprising outcomes. Jayden Daniels nearly led Washington to an improbable comeback down 10 in the final two minutes against Dallas only to fall short because Austin Seibert's extra point sailed wide left. After a field goal and successful onside kick, Daniels connected with Terry McLaurin on an 86-yard catch-and-run touchdown to bring the Commanders within one point with 21 seconds remaining. But Seibert's point-after attempt failed and the Cowboys returned the ensuing onside kick for a touchdown to seal a 34-26 victory. Special teams were atrocious for both teams. Seibert also missed his first extra point and Washington allowed KaVontae Turpin's 99-yard kickoff return for a score earlier in the fourth quarter. The Cowboys missed a field goal, had another blocked and had a punt blocked. "What a wild special teams moment of blocked punts, kicks, kickoff returns, blocked field goals, just a number of things going to that spot," Commanders coach Dan Quinn said. Washington (7-5) was a 10 1/2-point favorite over the undermanned Cowboys (4-7) but ended up losing a third straight game. The Houston Texans were 8-point favorites against the lowly Tennessee Titans and let the game come down to Ka'imi Fairbairn missing a 28-yard field goal that would have tied it with just under two minutes left. C.J. Stroud threw two interceptions, was sacked four times and the Texans (7-5) committed 11 penalties, including an illegal shift that negated a go-ahead 33-yard TD pass to Nico Collins on the drive that ended with Fairbairn's miss in the 32-27 loss. The Titans (3-8) averaged just 17 points per game before putting 32 on the scoreboard against Houston's defense that entered No. 4 in the league. "We didn't do anything well enough to win this game," Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said. "Out of all the positives that we did have, there were way too many negatives. Too many negative plays. Score, get a penalty, get touchdowns called back. Get penalties on special teams. Just way too many negative plays defensively, like unexplainable explosives for touchdowns. We just didn't play good across the board." The San Francisco 49ers didn't have quarterback Brock Purdy, star edge rusher Nick Bosa and All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams against Green Bay. That was no excuse for their undisciplined performance. The Niners committed nine penalties and their tackling was shoddy in a 38-10 loss to the Packers. The defending NFC champions are 5-6 with a trip to Buffalo (9-2) coming up. They're still only one game behind Seattle and Arizona in the NFC West. "I'm really not concerned right now about how many guys were missing. We didn't play good enough, so that's not a factor. But, when you are missing some guys, you do have to be better. When you have those penalties and we didn't stop the run like we did and we had those three turnovers in the second half, that's how you get embarrassed." Coming off their first loss of the season, the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs needed Patrick Mahomes' heroics on the final drive to beat Carolina 30-27. Mahomes ran 33 yards to set up Spencer Schrader's 31-yard field goal as time expired. Kansas City had 10 penalties, including a pass interference that gave the Panthers (3-8) another chance to make the 2-point conversion that tied the game with 1:46 remaining. On defense, the Chiefs (10-1) suddenly shaky unit gave up 334 total yards against Bryce Young and an offense that entered last in the NFL. "We've got to do better. We're doing good in the red zone but that's only a third of the field," Chiefs safety Bryan Cook said. "We will go back and look at the film to see what we're doing week to week, and see the tendencies that we're giving up, and just move forward from there. At the end of the day, we're all vets in the room for the most part. ... got to go back to the drawing board and see what we're doing and correct it from there." The Vikings allowed the Bears to recover an onside kick with 21 seconds left and Caleb Williams followed with a 27-yard pass to D.J. Moore to set up Cairo Santos' tying 48-yard field goal. But Minnesota won in overtime, 30-27. The Chiefs and Vikings overcame their mistakes in narrow victories. The Commanders, Texans and 49ers couldn't. They have to be better down the stretch to make a playoff run. Get local news delivered to your inbox!
