> - Climate Activists, blocking road and sabotaging the instrument, like they destroy old paintings at museums and art galleries to bring awareness via headlines [1]
Saying they "destroyed" any paintings is plain wrong, you've either not read past the headline or you're deliberately trying to make climate protesters look bad.
While I'm aware of many art/museum related climate protests, I haven't heard of a single one that damaged any art - all of them, like the example you linked to, the protestors chose targets where they could avoid doing any real harm. In the story you linked they threw paint over a glass case that protects the painting, not over the painting itself.
So it definitely wouldn't surprise me if climate protestors decided to delay the trip by temporarily blocking a road, but it would be extremely surprising if they did anything worse than splashing paint on something that does no harm other than needing a cleaning crew to get it off.
The other comment, from sib, already shows that there is an example I'd missed of a climate protest leading to a piece of art getting damaged - albeit in a minor way (and I think sounds like it was accidental too, that they were again aiming to damage the case not the painting itself - otherwise they would have done more than light scratching / would've picked a painting without that type of strong case).
But your link isn't about climate protestors at all, and it's barely even about art - the painting those people targeted wasn't picked for being a well known and well liked picture, but because of the politics 100 years ago of the person in the painting.
Quite a different situation, and entirely different reason for protest.
