The Big Oil heir to the group ‘Just Stop Oil’ threw soup at Van Gogh’s painting – Watts Up With That?
A Big Oil heiress is the lead sponsor of a vast global network of grassroots climate groups, including UK-based Just Stop Oil, which organized a protest Friday vandalizing a famous painting.
Aileen Getty, the niece of the founder of Getty Oil, is a founding sponsor of the Climate Emergency Fund (CEF), a Los Angeles-based organization that funds several climate protest groups around the world. Getty, an prolific environmental philanthropist, transferred $500,000 to the CEF shortly after it was founded in 2019, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy.
Driven by Getty’s original and continuing contributions, CEF has given out millions of dollars to extremist groups that have participated in disruptive protests around the world. Among CEF’s grant recipients is the A22 Network, which includes Just Stop Oil, the US-based Emergency Declaring Organization, and groups in nine countries including Germany, France and Canada.

In recent months, the group has repeatedly held protests, in which its members are glued to famous paintings. Just Stop Oil activists have also blocked major roads and motorways in the UK, in some cases emergency car tying to take different routes to their destination.
Nothing new here, whiny narcissists attack their false sense of moral superiority and commit destructive behavior, financed by your corrupt heirs. industrial magnates, who can only give meaning to their lavish but empty lives by signal of virtue.
If you watch the video, as it loads above or you visit the link, pay attention to the girl’s way of speaking. It was an exact imitation of Greta Thuneberg. Propagation is common.
I’ve embedded the video, but Fox News embeds are notoriously slow to load.
In addition, by choosing Tomato Soup (can), an extremely important historical icon in modern American art, ala Warhol, they have truly created a performance art that can be said to be art. Interesting circular self-referencing technique. Campbell would be a better choice.
I doubt many art critics will take note.
