Capital art-partisans continue their daring and creative actions.

At the weekend, a new graffiti appeared on the already known "Shchetkina Wall" in Minsk, Euroradio reports. This is the inscription "Who has allowed all the others to allow themselves."

The "Shchetkina Wall" gained fame after the first social graffiti - the portrait of ex-Minister of Labor Marianna Shchetkina with the inscription that it was she who came up with the tax on the unemployed. When the workers ща Housing Maintenance Service destroyed that portrait, an inscription appeared on its place saying: “Well, you understand everything yourself.”

Since then, the unknown graffiti artists compete with the Housing Maintenance Service. Portraits of the chairman of the "Council of the Republic" Mikhail Myasnikovich and the phrase said by Martin Luther King: "Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal," – were painted on the wall.

Unknown artists placed social graffiti also in other places of the city: for example, Minister of Internal Affairs Ihar Shunevich was painted wearing the NKVD overcoat, chairman of Belteleradiocompany Hennadz Davydzka was depicted in the form of a teletubbie.
