British graffiti artist Banksy may never have been seen in public but his nearest Russian equivalents cannot seem to keep out of the news these days - thanks partly to the Russian police. Leonid Nikolayev and Oleg Vorotnikov, members of the radical art collective Voina, were freed from custody last week after nearly four months awaiting trial for overturning police cars in St Petersburg. The news conference was the artists’ first public appearance since they walked free from jail - thanks to Banksy paying 300,000 roubles (£6,500) bail for each of them. - source bbc.co.uk
