78. FOR M. RYKLIN (Slogan–96)

After positioning themselves on a suspension bridge at railway bridge over Yauza four action’s organizers deployed a swing-like construction of ropes and a board to the shore and offered M. Ryklin to sit on the board. After lifting the board the organizers started moving the “swing” towards the river. Upon reaching the middle of the river Ryrlin was lifted to suspension bridge. At the same time a white cloth (3x4 meters when positioned vertically) was unfolded and draped from the bridge. On one of its sides there was an inscription in black letters: “FOURTY-SIXTH LIFTING OF MIKHAIL RYKLIN OVER RIVER YAUZA”, on the other side there was a “road up” traffic sign sewn onto the cloth. The cloth remained there after the action’s end and was picked off on the next day by N. Panitkov.
