director of the Tate , Nicholas Serota told the ITAR -TASS news agency : "In the current year we allocate up to 400 thousand dollars for the purchase of works of avant-garde art in Russia and the countries of the region. Russia is for us one of the most exciting global culture- centers. " By creating this committee , the gallery has three objectives : the acquisition of masterpieces of the Russian avant-garde of the twentieth century , the acquisition of works of leading contemporary Russian artists , purchase of paintings by young artists who can be a " genius of the XXI century ".

I wonder what "masterpieces of Russian avant-garde of the twentieth century" they want to buy with the money , and most importantly - how much? >

More likely , someone from living classics nonconformism they just give their works, as well as contemporary Russian artists, and so b. young to be " geniuses XXI century."

Well of course the official version said they will not fill the price, but there are unofficial. In any case, TATE question of money is not necessary. Moreover , they already have their agents were in St. Petersburg and Moscow , mainly workshops and so on divorce, cheat artists ... as always. Mol prestige , etc.
