Van Gogh Museum reaches funding agreement with Dutch government

Protesters have put up a display outside the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York to illustrate the links between Leon Black, trustee at the museum, and Jeffrey Epstein. Black, who became chair of the museum board in 2018, stepped down amid calls for his removal in 2021, but has remained a trustee.

During the protest, which according to Hyperallergic was attended by some two dozen people, the Institute of Primary Facts parked its ‘Bookmobile’ – a converted food truck containing bound volumes of the released Epstein files, in which Black is mentioned thousands of times – outside the museum.
