One of the themes sounded consideration:

My idea is simple: more than 2 zillion for a local artist against a hundred thousand for a global artist - looks like something ridiculous .

Prompting the question :

please explain , these local and global artists .

And some answers :

What is there to understand ? One - the artist only for internal use and is unlikely to start acquired, such as the British or the French (well, for the money of course) , and the second as a representative of the " Russian avant-garde of the early 20th century " may and should be utilized by all (and this is the whole world ) experts in this field . In this case, nothing offensive in this formulation, there is no question .

and

And what , this , a special " genetic trait " in the work of Shishkin ? ? One of the many members of the German , the Dresden school of academic painting ! All Russian academics , came not from the iconography or folk art ( in its 18 - 19veka was not), but from the Archaic - European academic art. Maybe I got confused ? !

if you wish to continue the discussion - please.
