We reported on the case of the Russian art collective [Voina last week](https://hyperallergic.com/voina-interview/) but today Marina Galperina of [Animal NY has an update and interview](http://animalnewyork.com/2010/12/voina-to-animal-real-art-is-in-the-street-or-in-prison/?ref=hyperallergic.com) with Voina’s Alexei Plutser-Sarno and it doesn’t look good. “They wiretap our phones, write down every … word. For me they have already prepared a criminal article, reading ‘organizing and leading a criminal community’ — namely, the Voina art group … gallery art has died. Today you can \[only\] do … innovative art in the street only or in prison, on the edge between Life and Death, between Reality and Imaginary. Art calls for sacrifice,” Plutser-Sarno says.
