Expand, please question.
Why should appear shaft fakes? If they do not have the competence (gain the place in a rogues experts) and then they will vparivat. We are with you as they are now going to carefully study the work.
Another thing is that they start buying everything and thereby raise prices.

Constantine conversation is not about Dasha Zhukova (she had this all will be fine).
In this topic tightened Russia's elite (Abramovich, for these gurus), (the second tier millionaires), and now they will begin to cram hundreds of bullshit t.n.aktualnogo art (we already have seen in the early 90gg.Familii artists who forged hundreds and thrown on the market Russia, Honey all art dealers, gallery owners know ..)
Although if Zhukov will (as planned), only to Western contemporary art .. then for Russia's market problems probably will not.

" In the center of contemporary culture involved the world's largest dealers, such as Larry Gagosian. Zhukova grew up in a family that has been collecting contemporary art for over ten years, and the main Western gallerists know it is not the first year. Thus, for the cultural program "Garage" will be responsible Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst, a former director of the Gagosian Gallery in London.

Maybe I'm wrong, but the Western dealers and gallery owners, it seems, have developed an excellent strategy: find a nice, sweet, rich and ambitious Russian young lady and make her face a commercial project. Although in this case it does not mean that Zhukov would be manipulated. She can certainly afford to be independent and to change the direction of their own volition. Western dealers needed financial resources and reputation Dashi to break into the lucrative Russian market, and Dasha herself in need of their professional advice. "
That, with regard to driving her, with such experts at it, all will be well ....

I do not really understand the word "break". Who prevents Western gallerist break now? Always a question of price and quality.
Look at the recent "Salon" gallery school already offers Western art, only four times more expensive. So?
As far as I'm aware of no sales. Well Abramovich will buy several times more expensive than what? Business - the sum of many factors.
The two they have - money and fame (all already aware of their beginnings).
But may not be the main thing - the desire to earn. Gallery business - large hard work. Rave factor (type I bought in the gallery of Abramovich - Monet in three times the price) is unlikely to be popular and prestigious.

Konstantin, agree with you, the sale of any art - is a question of price /quality plus taste gallerist. By the way, look how successful works gallery Garik Tatuntsyana - the same contemporary Western art, and very well served. By the way, I do not think that half-baked gallery owners, even with unlimited financial opportunities can make it better, of course, if you do not take into account customers with Rublyovka, but that's another story ...

Konstantin fully agree with you ..

  All right, this story and will develop L. Gagosian. (Under the strict guidance of Dashi).

I agree with Eugene in the sense that some, I'm not saying all, wealthy people will follow the example of Abramovich, also drawn into this topic. Especially do not look for, where to buy. He went to Dasha Zhukova, received a lot of mulenov what you basically do not need, but fashionable. Sell them here will clearly be many times more expensive than in the West. But no one will stop ... Nevertheless, "their", all trust each other))) Just because the western gallery owners themselves can not come, they do not have that mentality, backstage, and understanding of "how to be her." But the first people to go through the business and bureaucratic elites really much better chance.
Let's see what happens, but the market obviously does not collapse. They also plan to engage in contemporary Western, and, perhaps, a little Russian art, which does not intersect with the same nonconformists. And contemporary art is not falsified, there is no sense. but what will huddle on off-market prices - FACT!
