"In its almost 70-year history, documenta has developed into the world's most important exhibition of modern art. Every five years, it creates a space for artistic perspectives on the central issues of the global world. This was and is only possible thanks to the complete refusal of politics to exert any influence on artistic issues and the strict preservation of artistic freedom. This finds its limits in the law, which is bindingly established by the courts, not in parliamentary resolutions, not in the opinions of politicians, not in reasons of state and also - as is now planned for documenta - in enforced voluntary commitments by curators and artists. This petition demands that artistic freedom, as enshrined in Article 5 of the German Basic Law, continues to be preserved and is not restricted by political or other external influences, which is why we at the #standwithdocumenta initiative are doing everything we can to support you in protecting this important platform for modern art and preserving its independence. Please sign this petition now!"
