Дополнительное время (Overtime)

Moscow, Russia: Members of the feminist protest punk rock group Pussy Riot (from left: Veronika Nikulshina, Olga Kuracheva and Olga Pakhtusova) leave a detention centre after serving 15 days for invading the pitch at the World Cup final, before being forced into a police van seconds later. They were allegedly charged with also “the organisation and holding of public events without prior notice” and could face another 10 days behind bars. Photo: Reza Nourmamode/AFP/Getty Images.

Underpainting

Guerrilla Girls (est 1985), Guerrilla Girls Review the Whitney, 1987.
The Clocktower Gallery, an alternative art space in Lower Manhattan, invited the Guerrilla Girls to respond to the 1987 Whitney Biennial, in which only 24% of the works on view were by women artists. Deploying their characteristic directness for Guerrilla Girls Review the Whitney, they created a poster of a woman in a gorilla mask pointing at a banana. Photo © Guerrilla Girls.
