Artists are selected on the basis of: the worse the better. The artist have to work for entertainment of public and promotion of base instincts. I say because I know state of affairs in Russian art. There are many talented people in the province and nobody knows them. Only after their death we can hear ones names, when their paintings start to buy and to sell. The best artist is the dead artist. It is the law of the market. The famous artist in Russia is a lucky man or a talented businessman. But it is not art. Honestly speaking I don’t know anyone from very talented artists who has made a successful career in Russia. And the most famous example is the fate of the artist Valentin Massov. He created a truly new direction in art. But who did hear his name? We can admire of another culture and destroy ours one at the same time. It’s our life!
"And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see . And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth."
