But the curators did not capitulate. “Ruangrupa, as the artistic direction of Documenta 15 has the sole right to decide and does not wish to follow the recommendation to temporarily remove the workby Subversive Film from the exhibition,” a spokesperson for Documenta said in an email to Artnet News earlier this week..
