Artists pull work after arms fair event

THIRTY radical artists have called for their work to be removed from London’s Design Museum because it hosted a private event promoting the arms trade.

The museum hosted the event as part of Farnborough Air Show, one of the world’s biggest arms fairs.

The artists have signed a joint letter calling for their work to be removed from the Hope to Nope exhibition which charts the art from social and political movements of the last decade.
