The association with telnyazhkami and vodka. Another thing is that the names of them know not many. At best, the charismatic "lazy" Dmitry Shagin. Shinkarev - a key figure. But the figure, I think, first of all, important to Mitkovskaya literature and ideology. Here are his books (they are readily available) I'm very cute. General collections Mitkov - it's a lot of authors, full of humor, zaum tolerant. There is absolutely dovlvtovskogo class history (not Shinkareva, while Vladimir Yashka, for example).
Interestingly enough, "literatutrnye" picture Shinkareva when the canvas creates a kind of comic book on the story of a famous literary works - "Iliad," "Crime and Punishment," "Eugene Onegin" (the theme of Pushkin is generally very Mitkovskaya). Recently there was an exhibition of realistic landscapes Shinkareva mainly of Peter - that they are IMHO much an amateur.

About current investment successes I can not judge, will soon be clear. In terms of work began to appear at auction, and will open statistics. At the current Russian week will already have the results.

A very easy to fall in love Mitki :) "In the online stores have a bunch of reissued books: Mitka," "proper literature" Shinkareva, etc. This is a recognized phenomenon, deeply Russian, is very original, is inseparable from our history . Often in the form of naive expressionism - the same thing original.

And finally. At farzatse book Shinkareva 'own literature "(2000) printed reproduction paintings of Vladimir Shinkareva" Birds of spring joy. " In fact, any story - a cat with a bird (the same as that of Picasso and Yakovlev). Thing is cool, desirable, there is no doubt in investment attractiveness.
