Protest or vandalism? I don't think destroying property especially art, businesses is a good way to get people on your side.

If anyone LSO/LG have earned the "reputation" for destructive or disrupting stunts I actually do think they're indirectly being financed by the oil industry (LSO head figures go around in private jets) to antagonize and create a bad (but not unrealistic) caricature of the climate protestors. And of course there's plenty of people willing to play the roles Greta looks like the serious grownup compared to LSO

  Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Neither, "preventative detention" means this is not a response to any specific action.

  I want to believe that there was a "specific action". An explicit announcement to block a road / airport / whatever. Unfortunately, it is cheaper for the gonvernment to detain people than to send police to prevent it shortly before it is going to happen. Also, the ruling party in Bavaria is mainly controlled by the opinions people exchange in pubs over a couple of beers (one beer being a quarter gallon), and there common sense isn't considered that much.

  It may be a response to specific circumstances like carrying blockade gear, announcements made by the people in question or past crimes: https://www.gesetze-bayern.de/Content/Document/BayPAG-17 https://www.gesetze-bayern.de/Content/Document/BayPAG-17

No art has been destroyed, it all sits behind glass so it's just a matter of cleaning/replacing the frame for the painting. And much as I love art, I think throwing food or paint at it is a good reminder that while you can make more art you can't bring back lost species or ecosystems.
