Comment on Artist behind Mona’s ladies-only lounge ‘absolutely delighted’ man is suing for gender discrimination
Are you a legal expert? Is the fact that this is “art” not a more complex legal issue?

I’d say no. It’s a business, and it discriminates based on gender. Seems pretty black and white.
If they weren’t an actual business and didn’t make profits, then that would make more sense from an “it’s art” defense
Art is entitled to profit. Museums, cinema, theater, music concerts, all of those are art and are business. They aren’t mutually exclusive categories.
Yeah imagine movies or theatre shows costing money to see. Crazyness.
