What should I do?
 

Yesterday I was at a meeting of the owners of the gallery , " 11.12 " with the media , the Winery .
The formal occasion was an invitation to hear about plans for the summer the gallery , rather than listen to a formal survive modern art galleries .
It is especially interesting in light of recent announcements about realigning the leading galleries of Gelman and others. Well, you all remember of course.
Alexander Sharov ( gallery owner ), then at the press conference " to close " Vimes looked and said that they "own wedding, and we have our own " Business is going well .
Well that was interesting to me - what is "normal" in the current environment .
A little history: In the winery , Alexander moved a year ago , closing point in Barvikha. When I asked why, was made a correct explanation is not very convincing to me. it is clear that a good life are not going to contrive relocation . This is the second in my memory of the departure from the ruble , we see a promise that there will be a rich fellow passing by to look , and fly for fun - do not really justified.
In parallel, there is an exhibition of Sergei Sobolev - liked it.

Another bit of history : In the area of a crisis in 2008-2009 , Alexander opened a gallery in the U.S., somewhere in California, and then in a conversation with me , too, seemed optimistic , they say the difference between the U.S. and Russia in the art business is not comparable . Unfortunately there are also closed point , also explained why, though that's obvious. But on this " beat the cream " is not stopped, is currently working on opening a gallery in Singapore. The question there so all is well with the art life? On the contrary said that in contrast to Hong Kong's all bad, but it 's the good, will be pioneers . Well, God forbid.

What about here in a broad sense?
Winery rated good, but strange. On a weekday pass through a gallery of about 70 people, and an output of up to 200 . So many in my opinion. What about sales? And here in the quality of (money) is in no hurry to move. Noting the large number of foreigners and that this audience praised as promising. Here's how!
And most importantly - gallery business without support from other sources are unprofitable. That's it. And why would it? Enjoy the process ? Well, sort of not, sort of hoping that the prospect is.

Exhibition of sculptures good quality made ​​lighting. Point sources are changing the angle of light , creating an interesting play of volumes. Enjoyed the view - advise.

Tireless as comrade!

Absolutely charming and chaste interpretation of the "bikini area" (the bikini)!
