Life imitates art: Swiss police brutally crack down on squatters who inhabit fake "art favela"

Richard sez, “The Swiss riot police have taken a page out of the Turkish authorities’ book. After occupiers (‘critics’?) responded to the ‘irony’ of Tadashi Kawamata’s cafe/boutique in the form of a favela by occupying it, moving in and throwing a down-home favela house party, the Swiss police forcibly evicted them from the art installation using real, unironic tear gas and batons.”
