Pussy Riot protest at Venice Biennale forces Russian pavilion to briefly close

Pussy Riot staged a protest at the 2026 Venice Biennale's Russian pavilion, forcing it to temporarily close, over the festival's inclusion of Russia amid EU sanctions concerns; activists criticized the event for hosting Russian propaganda. Separately, the Art Not Genocide Alliance protested the Israeli pavilion over Israel's war in Gaza, following prior tensions including the jury's mass resignation over countries with leaders under international arrest warrants and the UK's decision to skip ministerial attendance at its pavilion due to Russian involvement.
