"Stop! Who's There? The First Moscow International Biennale of Young Art" has exhibitions all around Moscow this month. Art Strelka is holding a series of events dedicated to the biennale. A performance this week involved Yakov Kazhdan carving the words "Forever Young" entirely out of margarine. The theme of the exhibition was a backlash against exploitation of artists by art dealers. All art displayed is temporary and will be thrown away after three days. For more information on The Moscow International Biennale of Young Art, see www.youngart.ru.
