"The Venice Biennale jury announced its collective resignation a week after its statement of intent to omit Russia and Israel from consideration. This unprecedented move has raised questions about the implications for the event and the broader art community."
"Between 1976 and 2011, admin jobs at American universities grew by 369% while full-time tenured and tenure-track faculty grew by only 23%. This stark contrast highlights the corporatization of education and its impact on the academic landscape."
The Venice Biennale's international jury collectively resigned following the announcement that countries accused of crimes against humanity, specifically Israel and Russia, would not be eligible for awards. This decision has created significant controversy and is expected to lead to further developments during the upcoming press preview. Additionally, the financialization and administrative growth in American art schools have been criticized, with a notable increase in administrative jobs compared to faculty positions over the years, reflecting a troubling trend in higher education.
