Banner being removed at German art show in antisemitism feud

BERLIN (AP) — Officials say an Indonesian art collective’s banner that was widely criticized as containing antisemitic elements has been covered up at a major art show in Germany and is to be taken down. The large installation by Taring Padi, titled “People’s Justice,” drew objections after it was put up in a central square in the city of Kassel as part of the documenta contemporary art show. Criticism centered on the depiction on the banner of a soldier with the face of a pig, wearing a neckerchief with a star of David and a helmet inscribed with the word “Mossad,” the name of Israel’s intelligence agency.
