ACAB -Oi oi oi - COCK IN ASS BAND
besides painting willies and bouncing copcars...
VOINA group
"Cock In the Ass" [C.I.A.] punk concert
at the hearing of the Yerofeev - Samodurov case
May 29, 2009
Courtroom #204,
Taganskiy District court,
Moscow
Check out the oi! concert video and sing with Voina's band.
Around 1 pm, during the May 29 hearing of the Erofeev - Samodurov case Voina group organized a 1-song punk concert of the "Cock In the Ass" [Hui V Ochko (rus.)] oi-band inside Moscow's Taganskiy District court, interrupting the hearing set to send 2 leading curators of contemporary critical art in Russia to prison.
2 organizers of the "Forbidden Art" exhibition in Moscow, Yury Samodurov, expert in critical art, and Andrei Erofeev, Russia's top curator, both face 5 years in prison on charges of inciting hatred and religious enmity after the public prosecutor supported the plea of nationalist and Orthodox bigots, which are widely supported by the Putinist junta, who seeks to install a new moral order in Russia.
The courtroom was overfilled that mourning and as the prosecutor read the 150-page indictment Voina's host interrupted and announced that right now the punk collective "Cock in the Ass" will perform its hit "All cops are bastards" [Vse menti ublyudki] from the new album "PLEN" [Rus. acronym for "Fuck the Police Those Motherfucking Bosses"].
Instantaneously, guitars and stage equipment appeared from backpacks of Voina activists in the courtroom audience and the band played its hit - "All Cops Are Bastards - You ought to remember that". In the middle of the oi-song police broke in and started an authentic punk slam alongside Voina activists, prosecutors, lawyers and defendants.
Police were weary of detaining participators of the punk slam and Voina activists due to an announcement before the punk show that all was paid for by case judge Svetlana Yuryevna Aleksandrova and "FEP", the secret Putinist political foundation.

upside down copcars in st. petersburg
Police Cars Flipped Over in Graft Protest
 Artist Alexei Plutser-Samo says it took nine seconds to flip each police car. |
Several police cars were overturned in St. Petersburg in a stunt taken credit for on Monday by the same group of artists that painted a huge penis on a drawbridge in June.
An artist with the group, Voina, or War, published photos on Monday on his blog of what he called an anti-police “Palace Revolution” in the vicinity of the downtown Mikhailovsky Palace.
The first car was overturned after a ball belonging to a child of one of the artists rolled under it, the artist-blogger, Alexei Plutser-Sarno, said on his blog. After that, the artists targeted four to six other police vehicles.
It took the activists nine seconds to flip each car, he said.
The group wanted to provoke a discussion about widespread corruption and power abuse in the police force, Plutser-Sarno said in an e-mailed statement. He added that Voina did not fear prosecution.
“More than 10 criminal cases have been opened against the group. There will be one more, so what?” he said.
“They don’t need us: We have neither money nor property, so there’s nothing to get from us, and the ‘werewolves in epaulets’ don’t work for no reason and for free,” Plutser-Sarno said, referring to a nickname for corrupt policemen.
A spokeswoman for the St. Petersburg traffic police confirmed Monday that at least one car sustained slight damages when it was overturned by unidentified attackers last week.
Police are looking into the incident, the spokeswoman told Ekho Moskvy radio, without elaborating whether any Voina members face charges.
Voina has previously staged other radical performances bordering on hooliganism. They organized a sex orgy in the Biological Museum in Moscow in 2008 and painted a 65-meter penis on a St. Petersburg drawbridge on the eve of an international economic forum in June.
David Riff, an expert on Russian art, said prosecution would allow Voina to draw even more attention to their activities. “The aim of art is to provoke and oppose, and Voina is the only group now which still performs these kinds of things,” Riff said by telephone. “But it doesn’t mean that they can’t be prosecuted. It’s their own choice.”

"La population du navire était d'une composition variée et, dans l'ensemble peu attirante. [...] Un boxeur, littérateur à l'occasion, cousin d'Oscar Wilde, avouait franchement qu'il aimait mieux démolir la mâchoire à des messieurs yankees, dans un noble sport, que de se faire casser les côtes par un Allemand [...] tous les autres étaient de la même espèce : déserteurs, aventuriers, spéculateurs, bannis d'Europe.
