Anish Kapoor's Versailles sculpture vandalized with anti-Semitic graffiti

Anish Kapoor's sculpture in the gardens of the Palais de Versailles has been vandalized for the second time. The work of the Turner Prize-winning artist was smeared with various racist, anti-Semitic, and right-wing messages, including a particularly offensive one stating, 'The SECOND violation of the Nation by DEVIANT JEWISH activism.' This incident follows a previous act of vandalism in June, when yellow paint was sprayed on the sculpture. Kapoor has declared that he will not let such acts of violence and intolerance go unchallenged. Instead, he intends to place explanatory signs near the sculpture to address what he describes as cultural fascism. The latest vandalism took place on 8 September 2015, according to Libération, and the sculpture has sparked controversy since its debut at Versailles.
