Group «PG» was founded in 2000. Now it consists of Ilya Falkovsky, Alexey Katalkin and Boris Spiridonov.
«PG» is a play of words that can be interpreted differently, for example as «Criminal Group».
The group activity is multifunctional. It publishes own magazines and postcards, releases musical albums, makes comicses and
performances. The main topics are cruel realities of today life, but it is ironically reflected through lyric approach of Moscow
psychodelic culture. Artists play roles of massmedia characters: gangsters, Chechenian extremists, street hooligans, subculture
representatives. The group unites different lines of activity into «multimedial comics» — installations where photo and graphics goes
together with video and soundtrack.
