Give us a million!!

[Meister]

And to completely distract from the Ukrainian art, close the topic about our favorite and adored contemporary art)))

Begin with the question: Who is worth more than Kandinsky, Gris, Giacometti and many of the Impressionists?? Who knows the answer? A casket just opened: Yves Klein. At auction Sotheby's 11.11 (a fun date) - as much of his work sold for 21 million!! That I think, not a bad bargain? More had to pay, what is 21 million for contemporary art? Even discussing boring ...

Glad for buyers Twombly. What a pitiful 4.7 million for a masterpiece of genius that he might be called, "artist". seemed absolutely senseless thing, but when examined closely, to think, to ignore, do not focus on the little things go away, come from a different angle and understand! understand that this is true, absolutely senseless thing, without even a slight hint at the meaning of))

Moment of getting people in a meat grinder F. Gaston sold for $ 10 million and who is this way?

4-5 million fit Rothko, Koons, Wesselmann, Lihteshteyn, de Kooning. So, the crisis is a crisis, and Basquiat (specially for Vladimir) all flawless for sale (626 thousand dollars)

fashionable artists, rising stars can be washed off. And they've already classic, Basquiat, Harring ... They hold no worse blow Warhol and Lichtenstein. Even better. Because they are smaller.

[Meister]

Well, Lichtenstein, Wesselmann, okay ... but Twombly, Murakami and others? how much can it? I do not believe or do not want to believe in their bright future ...

Christie went on yesterday evening auctions of contemporary art)) So, the first five:

1. Lyubimets Volodya Basquiat could almost have lasted up to 1 place, which went to G. Richter, which sold for an incredible amount of 14,8 million dollars!! I saw her live at the All pre-Christie in Moscow ... for me so it goraaaazdo candles were beautiful ...

2. Basques leave the celebrations to Vladimir, but the price of 13,5 million struck no less than the policy of almost former President))

3. Unknown to me until now to nevygovarivaemym Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama has been named one of the few whose work sold out above the upper estimeta, namely for 5,8 million dollars in assessing 2,5-3,5. Who is famous for and what is not clear, and not very interesting.

4. What a crazy concept and understandable only elected F. Klein took over 5,1 million do not even want to comment, as if someone then brush painted ...

5.B again sincerely glad for buyers Koons that for 1 of the Three statues, paid 4.3 million))) And they probably are glad to have bought 700 thousand cheaper than the lower estimate))) This is interesting, but he did it himself or store just bought?

In general, again, not so bad, the 70-odd lots sold 49 ... Vyruka - 113 million ... Previously, it was certainly better, but still I think the auction can be considered successful

At first glance kalyaki-Maliaka. But only at first. Sovreshenno luxury Franz Klein hanging in the MoMA. Anyone who has seen every one that matters arise. The artist is in such a manner is listed in all the monographs, the pride of American abstract expressionism. Therefore worth millions.

I know who it was, and I know what he valued, but, alas, all these explanations, and his paintings seem to me very questionable ... all phrases like "sweeping lines on his paintings give the impression of a certain spatial structures that are highly energetic and Klein sought its inspiration in Japanese calligraphy, whose conceptual framework used in his work "- all this verbiage ..
