Yeah, they call.
Since light.

And I think that the boycott Petitions - a question of ethics and the issue was first raised by artists from the Netherlands and Germany , which initially focused on the fact that the Manifesto - a European Biennale , which was invented by the European community with the idea of ​​showcasing multiculturalism in Europe and focus on intra- questions , including the socio- political and sovriska - territory free expression and often quite hard , kontraversionnogo , but in a country where there are restrictive laws , including on the promotion of homosexuality , or the feelings of believers , somehow doubts that Biennale will take place without censorship , doubts about how free will the project participants in their statements .
These questions , I repeat, any more that spring , a year ago , when he was declared the host city next Manifesto they appeared exactly at the western artists and curators .
And so now, after the Crimea , the question raised is Ukrainian and Russian artists . And raised with renewed vigor.

Let's look at the factual side :
1. Preparing cultural event Manifesta http://manifesta.org/about-us/contact-press/, which allows to attract interest in contemporary art in general and Russian art in particular. Which , frankly, in our country is not spoiled attention .

2 . This event is at least indirectly useful to all working artists , because it allows to significantly expand their audience and increase interest in their work. Such events as the other Biennale , promote education and allow to captivate new audiences .

3 . Start in 4 months , training ideas underway.
  
4 . There are the personal opinion of the artist, born in Ukraine , became famous in Russia but living in Germany, that is useful to boycott Manifesto in St. Petersburg. There are the personal opinion of other political activists that protest Manifesto need to move to Ukraine. There are 1,600 Internet users from around the world signed a petition for a boycott .

So what? Who from this will be worse ?

1. Participating and non-participating artists
2 . Organizers and organizers whose work hangs
3 . Russian viewers

That these people - the target audience of the boycott ? All, of course , survive . But the feeling will remain spoiled the holiday and the formation of the image of the enemy.

Vladimir, for example, during wars Venice Biennale was not carried out.

Between 1916 and 1918, the Biennale was canceled due to World War I and also the activities of the Biennale were interrupted after the outbreak of hostilities during the Second World War.

Let's hope that the third world will not start , and the Manifesto goes according to plan ! In St. Petersburg ! <! - ~ 1 ~ ->

In the forties and the Olympics canceled . But circumstances are not comparable.

This is about what you Anufrieva alike. Refine possible.

Hopefully not about Aleksandr Sergeyevich Anufriyeva Odessa ......

And who will be visitors Petitions programs in St. Petersburg ?
Accustomed to such events in Europe sovriska fans will not come - you need to bother with obtaining Russian visas and money are those visas .

Complexity is. But who should be - even in China fly with visas , but with doroguschy tickets. And there still European city. The Olympics out how many people flew . Well, who do not need - even on the subway will pass not stop .
