How does selection work?
Finding an artist with whom going to work. He makes the project. Gallery it produces, finances the production, is always there to help. Then this project shows. Unfortunately, there are very few good artists. It is hard to find talent.
have a favorite artist?
You mean the one I want to have in your collection? El Greco. But I do not want to discuss it. Just a dream to have a painting by El Greco. Also Zurbaran and Titian.
  What kind of art usually buy?
Good. Exhaustive answer? I sell one art, and I have to buy it. Other gallery owners sell more art. For example, there are gallery owners, who take art, depicting the manner of the last hundred years. As members of the Moscow Union. Their paintings are called, for example, "to pray", "In the bath", "Rasputitsa in the village. And you know, it is also an art that is well bought. At each art has its own customer.
What are the artists currently in vogue?
I feel fine artists AES F. Rauf Mamedov - absolute genius. Beautiful artist Alexey Belyaev-Gintovt. Yes, a lot of them! Alexei Kallima Marat Gelman Gallery.
  Who will be in vogue in five years?
I have just listed them. There is a stunning artist - Maxim CAST. Its popularity is growing. There is a remarkable young Ukrainian artist - Maxim Mamsikov. He has a brilliant prospect. And the West will remain in vogue AES F and Rauf Mamedov.

Nikas Safronov.
Please name the most important art event of recent years happened in Moscow?
There can be many to list ... I think Kandinsky Prize - the most important event in the market of contemporary art.
What prevents Moscow to be an art capital of the world?
In general, bohemian life everywhere about the same. The only question in its concentration. In Moscow, its concentration is less. Plus, artists are also less. Art Capital of the World - this is New York.
3 reason why people, far from art, to come in "Triumph».
And he does not need to come in "Triumph". Let him go to the football.
What is your favorite work.
Painting Dani Akulina "Plus". In general, I work all the galleries "Triumph" love. They are fabulous. There is such a wonderful, but sadly, unfashionable word - beauty. That's the beauty - for me it is the main criterion in the art. And one main criterion, it - like, not like. You can write clever code, but it's all for the curators. Critics write for film critics. And people just watch movies. Also occurs in the fine arts. I just love this work.

Yes, you are right, the site abandoned.

I was with them at the opening of several exhibitions: Gosha Ostretsova, Dani Akulina and, when last year they brought Hirst. The first two - this is generally a disaster. Especially vivid memories of Ostretsova, "paintings, prints of which were painted on them with obscene words. Indeed, except for "beauty" of the other epithet can not be. In principle, the opening of their show is more like a youth parties, because all come hang out at a local bar and the scary pitch)) I do not see a single person who would seriously look at that on the walls) all basically walked and laughed in the palm)))
It was interesting when they brought Hirst) Moreover, were not interested in his paintings, and communicate with him. Still, people nontrivial)))

I once rode rode, but did not get to their fairground Maxima CAST. And rumored to be successful and paintings sold at a very reasonable price ie $ 20-30. Maybe someone more informed way or not?
