I don't like competitions. Why? A competition is a lottery, a game. As a rule a talented human never wins a victory in competitions. I am sure art business must look for the talented artists by another way. How must be? I think if a businessman sees a talented artist he will have to come and buy his works. But he will not do it, because he doesn't interested in a unknown painter. He is interested only money. I am in art business a long time. I know what art business is. It is system and it is terrible system. It is not interested in talented artists. It is interested in only itself profit. I can see a person without talent gets the winner and a talented man is with nothing. And this is life. I said that a competition is lottery. And yes and no. A competition is policy where the winner is already known. The others are only entourage.
