Kirill Protopopov begun his journey in the art of making medals, and for many years was a member of the Moscow Club of Medalists. In 1991 he created a double-sided medal with the symbol of The Banner of Peace for the Nikolas Roerich Museum in New York.Protopopov claimed that the art of design helped him quit two-dimensional art forms and move to three-dimensional sculpture artwork.Since 1988 the artist has been using various materials such as ceramics, wood, metal and acrylic during his profound work inspired by The Old and The New Testament.His sculptures were first shown at the Mars Gallery in 1993, at the HAS Multicult Gallery in Frankfurt am Main and later in the Badisches Landesmuseum in Karlsruhe. The artist continued to create art collections: «People and Lions» (1993-1995), «Birds-of-paradise» (1996), «Objects from the sky» (1997), «Walkers through the Time» (1999-2000), «Rhine Angels» (2001-2002).

LT. GEN. HERTLING: Ukrainians have proven themselves to be the ultimate fighting force in Europe right now.
And it’s not just the combination of their new technologies and their evolutions on the battlefield. It’s continued grit and leadership dynamics of the people in charge.

A lawyer for the El Gamal family, that has spent close to a year at an immigration detention center in Texas, demanded the family’s release after a federal magistrate judge found that “requiring them to endure further detention… risks compounding the constitutional violation.”
Incredible shots of the exchange between Rep. AOC and RFK, Jr. at today’s congressional hearing.

It’s the reason we don’t have universal healthcare imo. Some white folks would rather die than see Black people get anything at all
RFK's rage and self-righteous sense of entitlement are obvious and scary. He is not someone I would want to be around at work or personally.

The Southern Poverty Law Center announced its under Justice Dept investigation targeted for its past use of paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups. Interim CEO Fair said in a video that the Trump administration has “made no secret of who they want to protect and who they want to destroy.”

“The EU’s highest court has found Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ law to be discriminatory, stigmatising and in breach of basic democratic values…”
This is a crucial decision. The court rejected the political claim that LGBTQ+ representation is “propaganda.” We must keep fighting politics that dehumanise us.
The experts are worried. And you should be too.
