Snippet:
Activists from FEMEN and Pussy Riot staged a protest in Venice ahead of the Venice Biennale, using smoke flares and slogans to denounce Russia’s return. The demonstration took place as journalists gathered before the event, which runs from 9 May to 22 November, and reflects wider tensions between artistic openness and political responsibility.
