Anita and Poju Zabludowicz founded the Zabludowicz Collection, one of the worlds largest private collections of contemporary art, in North London in 1994 the same year Poju took over the family arms dealing business. The company is now controlled by the Tamares Group who have invested heavily in property in various illegal settlements in occupied Palestine and continues to provide " military aircraft maintenance" to the Israeli Air Force. Poju also donates significant amounts of money to the conservative party . Today, The Zabludowicz Art Trust, of which the collection forms part, has been whitewashing apartheid for four decades. Collectively, these institutions divert attention away from its founders' and benificeres' less palatable activities in the UK and overseas while doing propaganda work for Israel's most unacceptable policies. Structural and physical violence against Palestinians disappear behind a philanthropic cultural mission and art is turned into artwash. The Zabludowicz collection exists to normalize and naturalise programmatic apartheid. Help us shatter the illusion that racism is ever acceptable. Stop the Artwashing of apartheid. Many artists have removed their work from the collection. You can boycott the collection by not attending the exhibitions, removing your work from the collection if it is in there or returning the fee they paid for the acquisition. By supporting the Zabludowicz collection you are supporting the Israeli apartheid regime and its' policy of ethnic cleansing.
