Hello, /pol/.
I'd like you to read the following about a modern Russian artist (at least himself and the media call him that) making radical perfomances revolving about self-mutilation.

>Pyotr Pavlensky rose to prominence in 2012 with Stitch, sewing his mouth shut to protest the Pussy Riot trial
>"Carcass" — wrapping himself, naked, in barbed wire to symbolise Russia’s repressive legal system
>"Fixation", nailing his scrotum to Moscow's Red Square in protest against the “apathy, political indifference and fatalism of contemporary Russian society”
>Pavlensky struck again, slicing off his earlobe while sitting atop the infamous Serbsky institute for forensic psychiatry in Moscow, where many a dissident was declared mentally ill for non-conformist beliefs during Soviet times. The work was called Otdelenie, which means “separation”, but also a department or subdivision, including a hospital ward.

Recently he did it again, setting a door of the main FSB building on fire. Today he was put under arrest for a month before the trial. He is charged with vandalism, but he claimed he refuses to speak or to eat until his charge is changed to terrorism. (the punishments differ A LOT, but he won't be charged with terrorism for some stupid door).

/pol/, what do you feel about political artists and do you have any freaks of this kind where you live?

I will bump with pics of his actions

Art student here.

Performance art is the lowest form of art.

The Separation

Yeah, /b/ is full of artists

This one has no name yet

He's a pretentious masochistic exhibitionist.

Simple as that.

So Russfriend how likely is it that he'll be facing prison time, or will he be institutionalised for a bit instead?

I wish there was a video of a Cossack whipping and beating that cunt whilst his balls are nailed to the floor.

>Just beat the degeneracy out.
>>
>>55386203
nigga please. As far as performance artists go he is small time.
>>
>>55386583
That's a good point. How come Pussy Riot get the VIP treatment?
>>
>>55386094
These two cunts are thinking,"I didnt sign up for this shit".
>>
>>55386570
Probably would not, he seeks attention, not death
>>55386641
No cossacs in Moscow (the video with cossacs was from Sochi).
>>
>>55386491
This.
He's mentally ill and should locked away.
>>
>>55386910
He was forced to undergo a mental health exam (in an institution where he has cut his earllobe off) three times and all times he was recognized healthy
>>
>>55386491
Not likely until he's doing some real damage
>>
>>55385910
Does he happen to be a homosexual?

Just watched the cossacks vs Pussy riot video again. Its brings me tears of joy.

>Bring on the Siberian Gulags for degenerates
>>
>>55387005
If you look at those pictures and truly believe that he's not mentally ill because of some “““““exam”””””, then I have bad news for you.

Back in the old Days we would simply call that dude a дypaк and move on.
>>
>>55387231
No info on this issue
>>55387340
Well, yeah, he might be ill, but there's no reason to lock him away, as he can predict the consequences of his deeds and control himself
>>
>>55387231
You think?

he's garbage and his "art" pieces are just an excuse to act like a twat in public and get people to look at him.

>>55386301
