The head of the bust of Pushkin on Primorsky Boulevard in Odesa was covered with a pink bag on September 30. The purpose of this art campaign is to emphasize the need to clean up all imperial and Soviet symbols.
The organizers of the action, Victoria Sibyr and Olena Balaba, informed the Society about this.
“Remove and prevent them from multiplying. In April 1991, the Czech artist David Cherny painted a Soviet tank in Prague pink. After that, the Soviet Union withdrew its troops from Czechoslovakia. We hope for the final destruction of the fragments of the empire in the hearts and in the squares. Remove the markers of the Russian occupation from your heads, your consciousness and from our streets. Otherwise, we cannot win,” the organizers said.
Earlier, Oleg Kiper, the head of Odesa OVA, announced that he had signed an order to demolish, in particular, a monument to Pushkin in Odesa. In the city council, it was pointed out that it is necessary to have the permission of UNESCO.
The Executive Committee of the Odesa City Council plans to dismantle 19 monuments in the city as part of decommunization. Among them are Gorky, Pushkin, Alexander II and Michurin.
