Another one bites the Desert dust, withdrawing $13,000.
The acclaimed Coachella Valley art event Desert X opens in Saudi Arabia in 2020, sponsored by the government that assassinated journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
“Non-Saudis need to realize that by boycotting these types of collaborations, the world is depriving regular Saudi citizens,” Bager said. “If you block us from valuable cultural exchanges like this, you are, in fact, contributing to a wider divide which you claim to want to halt.” “They owed us money for the project budget and the artist fee and that ended up being $22,000,” Twist said. “They made the final payment in July, but only after we made a threat and demonstrated that we had the support of a lawyer.”
For the 2016-2017 fiscal year, Desert X received $783,581 in nongrant contributions, according to tax filings. But for the fiscal year 2017-2018, the most recent year for which a tax filing is available, contributions to Desert X totaled $327,357.
