Before the beginning of the next match at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev in the exclusion zone two FEMEN activists broke in. The activists demonstrated about the essence of Euro 2012, as an act of physiological and economic rape of Ukraine.
The nature of Euro 2012 is evident by the fact that the championship of Ukraine paid a kollosalny economic, political and humanitarian damage, while Ukrainians are horrified by the Euro-effects, primarily related to corruption and prostitution.

“Meat Joy has the character of an erotic rite: excessive, indulgent, a celebration of flesh as material: raw fish, chickens, sausages, wet paint, transparent plastic, rope brushes, paper scrap. It’s propulsion is toward the ecstatic— shifting and turning between tenderness, wilderness, precision, abandon: qualities which could at any moment be sensual, comic, joyous, repellent.”
Still from “Meat Joy” by Carolee Schneemann.

When Yvonne Rainer stepped onto the dance stage in 1960, she radically changed the genre. Her minimalist choreographies dispensed with narrative and overstatement. Instead they used movements and poses from everyday life, combined with texts, films and sound recordings. Already her dance adopted the means of film montage.
