Candida Gertler steps down from Outset Contemporary Art Fund citing 'alarming rise of antisemitism' in cultural spaces
Briefly

"It is with profound reflection and a heavy heart that I announce my resignation from all voluntary positions within UK arts institutions. This decision comes not out of fear, weakness, or defeat, but as an act of principled protest against the alarming rise of antisemitism and the need for solidarity with those who suffer under oppressive regimes."
"The campaigners alleged that the couple are personal friends of the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and donors to his political campaigns. The Gertlers' names have since been removed from one of the galleries and its donor board."
