This submarine is from Alexander Ponomarev, a ex-russian naval enginner who make some artistic concept with submarine. In 1996 he paint a Kilo a make a trip aboard in the arctic ocean

you can see most of his art here: http://alexandre.ponomarev.free.fr/

and for a video of the 1996 painting of the Kilo

click on Francais, then at the end of the page on 1996 and click on VIDEO (sorry no direct link, it is a flash website)

Here a rar file ith all my photos of the FIAC 2006 Kilo in the Tuilleries

I am not sure that the 1996 painting is a kilo.The shape of the submarine looks wrong.Whiskey perhaps?

Let me put it this way:

Its a too small submarine, yet too big to "surface" in the Seine.
