On the directions of art ....

" One ruler has decided to get their portrait . And it was a curve , hunchbacked and lame .
Invited one artist. He painted his portrait - a picture. The king looked up and said, " Here you can see all my faults ." And the artist executed . - This was the birth of realism.
Invited the other. He drew it up so that there was no flaws at all. The king looked up and said, " But that's - I do not ." And the artist executed . - This was the birth of Romanticism.
Invited the third . The one in fear , not knowing what to do, promptly inserted on canvas of colors at random , and without waiting , hanged himself . - Thus was born ABSTRACT .
Invite more . The artist looked at it and said, " Crooked - Turn to your profile, humpbacked - mount a frontal torso , lame - put him on the throne ." - This was the birth of socialist realism.

About how!
 

Royal Academy of Arts exhibition of socialist realists rejected

The first exhibition of the Soviet artist Viktor Popkov in the UK was forced to change the venue , The Art Newspaper. Initially, about 40 works socialist realists were exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts, but now the show will take the London Somerset House .

The representative of the Royal Academy , said that "despite all the merits of Victor Popkov , it was decided that in the current circumstances, exhibition does not satisfy the conditions of Burlington Gardens ." Burlington Gardens, 6 - is building behind Burlington House , the main room of the Royal Academy of Arts, a cultural institution also uses it for their exhibitions.

The exhibition was organized by the State Museum and Exhibition Centre "ROSIZO ." In August 2013 the Ministry of Culture of Russia appointed him head of the former deputy director of the Kremlin Museums Zelfira Tregulova to make "ROSIZO " " a major international player in exhibition activity ." In London will travel pictures from the Russian Museum , the Tretyakov Gallery and other Russian museums.

Part of the work for the exhibition provided a fund of Andrei Filatov , a Russian businessman , co-owner and executive director of the transport infrastructure of the " N-Trance " (in 2012 , Forbes magazine estimated his fortune Filatov $ 1.3 billion ) . In 2010 Filatov set a record value of paintings Popkov , buying one of these on the New York Sotheby's auction for 842.5 thousand dollars (the previous record was set in the same year and was only 105.8 thousand) . Filatov , a collector of social realism , said work Popkov undervalued and artist calls " the art of Dostoevsky ." To acquaint the world with the work of Soviet artists, like Helium or Korzheva Arcadia Plastova he intends to build a museum abroad.

Viktor Popkov was born in 1932 in Moscow into a family business , he studied at the Surikov Academy , his painting style belongs to the so -called severe style. Among his paintings " Builders of Bratsk ", " The team is resting ," " A good man was Anisa grandmother ." Popkov, died at age 42 : he was shot by the driver of a security van , who asked for a ride Popkov .
