And now the view of the parties:

Oleg Tairov

- Why create a guild of appraisers?
- In our country registered a sufficient number of guilds appraisers in the field of industry in the form of SROs (self-regulatory organization), which operate on a competitive basis, ensuring its objectivity. But in the field of art appraisal activities in our country is in its infancy.
In assessing the value of works of art isolated assessment of authenticity and artistic value of works and assess the market value at the time of this evaluation, which depends on many market and socio-psychological factors. In the world of these assessments are conducted by various independent of each other's companies.
- What is happening in Russia?
- The legislation of Russia, as in many other countries, clearly stated position on the independence of appraisers from state institutions and manufacturers. In our country after the willful decisions of government museums and other institutions are prohibited from engaging art-examination for private citizens. After 2007 to establish a monopoly on this type of activity of the two government organizations - the All-Russia scientific and artistic behalf of the Grabar Restoration Center and the State Scientific Research Institute of Restoration and a private company, Art Consulting, part of whose founders include former employees of the Ministry of Culture. The latter company is including brokering, arranging examination of the works being carried out on a commercial basis the workers in those same museums, which have banned this type of activity in the workplace.
- What did your colleagues to accuse Art Consulting in monopoly?
- Supported by the Ministry of Culture to create a graceful monopoly structure to regulate appraisal, evaluation and fund-raising by the law of inheritance, which includes the following organizations: "Art Consulting (constituents - individuals), a guild of experts in a nonprofit partnership NOEKSI ( initiator of creation - "Art Consulting), a company to raise funds UPRAVIS (founders -" Art Consulting, NOEKSI, Petr Konchalovsky Foundation) accredited Rosokhrankultura. Now this conglomerate joined the newly formed mutual funds (the main parent company - UK "Leader") to work with artistic values.
Chairman of group of companies "Art Consulting and NOEKSI - Eugene Zyablov (ROSIZO former director, who is also a managing employee of the Criminal Code" Leader ") and CEO Art Consulting - Denis Lukashin, who is also a director and member of UPRAVIS NOEKSI. Companion PIFu are and Gazprom, and Ingosstrakh (which, in turn, is a partner of Lloyd \`s), and executive director of RESO-Garantia" Leonid Nadirov altogether chairman UPRAVIS.
- What they want to oppose this antique dealers?
- International Confederation of antique and art dealers not only includes members of the CIS countries, but also others. In addition, MKAAD is a member of CINOA (International Association of Antiquaries), as well as a member of the Moscow Chamber of Commerce. Members of the Confederation had years of experience in domestic and foreign markets for art and the de facto act as appraisers for their clients. When MKAAD accredited sufficiently large number of art experts who certainly trust its members. Creating a guild of appraisers in MKAAD - a logical step toward further legalization of all shades of antique and legal support for this work within the full self-regulatory organization under the laws of Russia.
