Petro Wodkins is one of the most talked about young artist coming out of Russia the last decade and his artworks are known for poking fun at authority. Questioning our perception of the world. He has previously made headlines with Armani Diapers where he made a new edition of Armani diapers that was widely reported about. We also challenged Robert Mugabe earlier this year with an audio installation and sculpture in Zimbabwe.

 

He was arrested in Brussels when challenging our perception about Beauty when replacing Manneken Piss and he is banned from both Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark and MUMOK in Vienna after shutting down these Museums in an art action where he directed people out of the museums to find art outside the confined Art museum context.
