Free Pussy Interventions 2012

While in Berlin, with Occupy Museums, I learned of a Russian feminist rock band who was in jail for staging an impromptu performance in Moscow’s Cathedral of Christ the Savior. That band was, Pussy Riot. Upon returning to New York, I felt a need to take Pussy Riot’s cause to the street,but how would I do this? I was not a performance artist and I did not want to just make fliers and hand them out. I decided to do something scary, which was take their cause directly into the NYC subway stations. The kids loved it, the parents were scared.

  1. I remember the live performances vividly. Testing the boundaries of free speech can lead to an arrest. The intention of performance and speech should be sought since it is more reliable than the concept of truth.
