Man Nails Testicles To Red Square Cobblestones
A Russian presentation creative artist was hospitalised on Sunday after stripping naked and hammering his testicles to a Red rectangle cobblestone in dispute against the Kremlin's crackdown on political rights.
A video of the graphic activity, accessible on Russian websites, showed creative person Pyotr Pavlensky seated nude out-of-doors Lenin's Mausoleum being enclosed with a bedding by policeman agents while shocked passersby looked on.
The state-run RIA Novosti report bureau said Pavlensky was taken to a policeman position after being treated in a centered Moscow clinic.
The Saint Petersburg-based creative person said in a declaration posted on the Grani.ru website that he was endeavouring to draw vigilance to Russian society's inaction in the face of the development of a "police state".
Russia assessed its annual Police Day vacation on Sunday.
It is not the first time the 29-year-old has resorted to eye-watering procedures of protest.
He has before stitched his lips simultaneously to demonstrate against the jailing of two feminine members of the Pussy Riot punk band who arranged an anti-Kremlin presentation inside Moscow's main cathedral in 2011.
He was also arrested after covering his nude body in barbed wire out-of-doors a Saint Petersburg government construction in May.
