Ari Emanuel Doesn't Want to Hear the G-Word
The Frieze owner criticizes rapper Macklemore's pro-Palestinian statements, the overlooked artisans who built Ancient Egypt, and other stories.
Hollywood tycoon and Frieze magazine proprietor Ari Emanuel has expressed disbelief that Israel's actions in the Palestinian territories constitute genocide. He also found fault with rapper Macklemore's pro-Palestinian statements made during an Ed Sheeran concert. Numerous institutions, including the United Nations, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch, have challenged Emanuel's stance.
In a recent interview on The Daily Show, Emanuel complimented tech entrepreneur Elon Musk for his "incredible contributions to the human race." This comes as the Armory Show, a major art fair co-owned by Frieze, prepares to open on September 24 in New York.
