A graffiti with the singer Zemfira* was destroyed in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. The portrait of the artist was smeared with blue paint after the outrage of the Deputy of the Sakhalin Regional Duma Alexander Sharifulin.
Last February, a member of the United Russia party wrote a post on his Telegram channel asking to cleanse the “Augias stables” of Russian culture:
“These people have spent years corrupting the minds of the younger generation by spreading evil Western ideas about life, earning colossal fortunes and not taking responsibility. One such example is Zemfira, a once-popular singer who repeatedly spoke publicly against the country and its military. But times have changed, now you will have to answer for your words and your deeds.
only received 11 likes and 397 dislikes. Despite this, today, March 29, the public services decided the fate of the drawing, the Ne TV Telegram channel reports.
Earlier, residents of the artist’s hometown – Ufa – added another graffiti. Words appeared on the art object that the artist who left Russia has no homeland. Later, music critic Yevgeny Babichev called Zemfira*’s new song called “PODNHA” outright rudeness.
