German Prosecutor Investigates Artist Behind Holocaust Memorial Replica | Artforum
Artist Philipp Ruch, the founder and head of the artist collective the Center for Political Beauty who made headlines in November 2017 when he built a replica of the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin next to the home of the far-right politician Björn Höcke, is under investigation. According to the New York Times, the state prosecutor’s office in Thuringia, Germany, is investigating the artist on suspicion of “forming a criminal association.” The move has raised concerns over whether right-wing sympathizers are using the law for political gain.
