Banksy Inspired Photo Banned by Russian Minister

"Artwork inspired by Banksy is among 16 banned from show by culture minister. The work by a Russian art collective has proved too much for Russia's culture minister, Alexander Sokolov. On Monday Mr Sokolov announced that he was banning the photo, entitled Kissing Policemen (An Epoch of Clemency), from an exhibition of contemporary Russian art due to be exhibited in Paris next week."
