I watch the forum clear the Soviet habit to choose a quote from an authoritative source [it should be noted, the quote was written a good literary language] - to make it to the first row, then all voted unanimously in favor. It does not matter - like or dislike. The big advantage the U.S. - there were many more opportunities, rather than in the USSR, have their own opinions on any occasion and not be afraid to talk about it.
Not respect when people are unable or afraid to express their own opinions, can not make up their own ideas about this or that question.
In the autumn of 2007. I visited the exhibition in the Pushkin Museum "300 years of Aussie Rules. art" and was his personal opinion. Some provincial museums me great pleasure, such as a museum in Pereslavl on, I'm not talking about museums regional level! Exchange of exhibitions was obviously not advantageous for Russia, if we can speak here of profitability. Compare that went to the New World in exchange for their design ideas:
"Russia" in New York and Bilbao. 2006 Almanac Issue. 139, State Russian Museum, State Tretyakov Gallery, the Cultural Foundation "Ekaterina", Palace Editions.
There is another exhibition at the Tretyakov Gallery:

Visit and make a opinion about the masterpieces that were brought to us Americans. Own opinion. If you can not visit - look, please, photos and reviews of different people on the forum. Or look through thin. albums, for example:
1) The Museum of Modern iskusstva.Nyu York. 2005 WORD
2) "Andy Warhol - artist of our time." /Almanac Issue. 121, 2005. The State Russian Museum, The Andy Warhol Museum, Palace Editions
I bought these albums, guided by the principle: "the enemy must know in the face".: Eek:
Indicative album of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. If I like it - skroree all, it will be the authors of the Old World (Cezanne, Gauguin, Chagall, Kandinsky, Munch, Monet, Klimt ...). Do not like it - is "homegrown" artists from the United States - Rothko, Warhol and others less well-known names.
Personally, I do not like the art of the New World. If you like - for equal discussion, please, to express their own opinion on a given topic. Do not give someone else's [albeit a decent quote] that no meaning is not related to the theme "Amer. Art.
It would be good to eat and gentlemen, voters have of own opinion, but did not respond to a purely ideological influence. There is a clear discrimination on the basis of name:
1) All that said one - bad
2) All other quotes - well
Is it time to adults have their own view of American art?!
