Excellent result. Auction waited with bated breath. He was supposed to show how the crisis affected the market of art. It turned out that everything is normal. And dealers were in a rage: from a business perspective is a complete rudeness do the work directly from the studio to auction, bypassing the gallery. Undermines the foundations of the market. But Hurst - krutan, he these rules the drum, and all auction dude not valerian drinking and playing pool Respect.

How touching, how charming details! Ah-ah-ah! That would clarify in advance which type of billiards played Hussar Hurst. Probably in Russian! : D

The price of such profanation, in my opinion, something around $ 200 million Such money, even billionaires are not drained for no apparent purpose. And then the market is a narrow one - such large-scale profanity disclosed at once. People exchange ideas, and if it turns out that no one is buying, then tomorrow it will be in The Sun.

High as you view the Western press. Interestingly, it has happened you have a long or after the information campaigns in support of the bombing of Serbia, Iraq, South Ossetia? Or maybe sooner? After the sensational collapse of the internet market ( "Enron").: D

In fact, there are several problems. Discontinuous growth is not particularly profitable. Since stocks are not always possible to sell at great prices, people are suddenly willing to pay several times more. And in a small can, it will undermine the market an artist. Therefore, the aforesaid, with potentially high prices for work, can sit without selling and without money. Permanent sustained profitable growth for this reason.

I remember that was the information (perhaps even on this site) that Hurst finished production of "canned", "gestalt balls and cubes for mental development, and goes to the production of fresh (if I may use that word, referring to previous "flavored" products) products. So do not worry, dear Vlad, everything is calculated and knocked out, as they say, "our little factory single zabastovochki.

I think that the purchasers would be found ...

JM-G,
Ridiculous. Although a bunch of "I'll kill" straining me even in a humorous context.

  Dear Joseph! Unfortunately, this strain only you and people like you. At the same, with the emptiness in my chest, nothing to strain. And so do not worry, nothing will happen to them, stand up, shake and go farther. We also important to express their attitude to this madness. Not for our sake, but for the sake of our children.

Stop, stop. There is an artistic gesture, but there is stupidity. Edge palpable, not confuse. It's like that place, I do not know, Duchamp's Fountain on some scales with a "deed" Gerostrat. The idea of "herstonenavistnika" - is the manifest failure. As with it seems ridiculous to nothing.

Speaking of Duchamp. Something like that happened at one of the exhibitions, which exhibited Duchamp's urinal. An elderly man came to the exhibit, took out a hammer from his inside pocket and ... zhahnul of priceless masterpiece. The response that followed the question "Why did you do that?" Does not cause (for me) question in the mental health and even witty in the best traditions of absurdism (he is all the same as a Frenchman or how). He said that continued or logically concluded the author's intention in the spirit of Dada. I do not know about you, but I longed for such actions in our revulsion to emasculate the time.
      As for Duchamp, it was the first, and Hurst (ie he does not even original) - just trickster, durachaschy nouveaux riches of the world, which allowed the front of the Great West. " For only plebeians lick the hand master, while lyagaya Motherland. There is a lot to say on this subject and am very pleased that there are brave and intelligent people. Because to say that even under a pseudonym is not easy, because need inner courage and unblinkered. To counter such a powerful propaganda machine is very easy. Concerning the "manifest failure" - a cheap and primitive controversial method which is used for lack of arguments

IMHO level Hirst at least comparable (and for me it is even superior) Andy Warhol. The same story: some mocked, others bought. And somehow that's absorbed. Hurst will resolve not - this is a phenomenon of interest is held for almost two decades. No, no options have two legs in the history.

I should clarify - feet first!: D

Dear Frosya! Once you pronounce it, then it already is.

Here is what proital on our site: http://artinvestment.ru/news/artnews...temporary.html

Quote:

But the deputy chairman of the board of directors of Sotheby's Europe, "Lord Mark Paltimor was in apparent euphoria over the unprecedented sales of British artist Damien Hirst, ended yesterday. The two-day auction auction Sotheby's, which took place September 15 and 16, for the work of Hurst managed to gain 111 million pounds (198 million dollars), almost twice the estimate. "I had no idea that people have so much free money, it was fine. And it is wonderful that rich people have decided that money is invested in art. By the way, a quarter of all buyers were from Russia ", - confessed Sir Paltimor.

  Love - is like? To look at dimmed with tears of admiration? It is enough to greatly enjoyed. Street-performers? So you did not question that you can love Keith Harring and Basques, but you can not love Hirst? What is the fundamental difference? Yes, Hirst's work is impossible to separate from the image of their creator, from the legendary Hearst, from lawlessness Hirst, from boorishness Hirst. Legend - this is an inseparable part of their perception. Well, Dora Maar by Picasso have the same "disadvantage" is not it?

  There is. So what? Blaming the artist that his work often bought young careerists, asshole - it's like blaming BMW that "X's" like bandits.

And why not tears? What are they bad?

Well, yes, chaos Hirst, boorishness Hirst, Hirst shit - that's ready to dish intellegentnogo hysterics (which is always lacking in Russia) and all kinds of parvenu. And what will be served for dessert? : D

friends, but we deliver Hurst are a number of "beads", such as: The Beatles, religious Range Rover and Jaguar, Amy Winehouse, Rolling Stones, serials BBC, Guy Ritchie, Top Gear, Jason Stetema, Reese Myers, the English style of dress and much more. Who of them is the claim? Political statements Caddish - yes, but that is seems to be the genre.
Leave Hirst alone But it is really devastating "supply", which concern me personally. Listed:
1. Children's milk chocolate, causing allergies, but promoted by aggressive advertising. every sweet trash to children.
2. Fast-food, promoted by aggressive advertising.
A Hurst? Yes he is quite harmless

No use what you have listed, no complaints. But there are claims to the smug and woozy from cluttering up all sorts of "fun" of Western elites and the service it clicks that do not care about dying children, the elderly, women, Iraq, Serbia, South Ossetia, which also could be looking episode, BBC, wear costumes British cut, take the Range Rover or Jaguar in the company of Amy Winehouse and the others you listed, and the music of Beatles or the Rolling Stones (who is like that) go to an exhibition of Damien Hirst! Why someone has usurped the right to decide who should live in this world, and who - no!
Dear Vladimir, I assure you, Russia will be able to respond to any rudeness, and this proves the history of our country!
A Damien Hirst I will not leave alone, because any person becoming public, must take responsibility for their actions. Or do you offer to us as sheep, to accept the fact that we are destined to become for English wool suit and the material to create "masterpieces" of Damien Hirst?
If you really think so, then tell me, what's the difference, what will our children eat: junk food, baby milk chocolate, causing allergies or food quality?

People for their earnings or styrennye money want to buy the best (prestigious, recognized, preferably in a safe place). Patriotism, each with its own hackneyed Hirst us know
all but Motorina - not all. About Hearst write glantsevye magazines, and about Motorina not write.

Most importantly, in Russia the market is not an adequate supply, there is no work, can learn so much money. I wonder what will sell the Kremlin's auction house? I think if would have been masterpieces, the Gelos for the year would have grown some of the Kremlin.

      Patriotism - loyalty and love for his homeland, his people and readiness for any loss of life and great deeds for the sake of their homeland. (SIOzhegov. Dictionary of Russian language. M. 2003. Str.637)

      Conformity - opportunism, passive acceptance of the existing order of things, the prevailing opinion, etc. (LP KRYSIN. Dictionary of foreign words. M.1998. P. 356)

      In my opinion, dear Vladimir, from the above entries is quite clear that patriotism can not be at each their own, because the Motherland - the unity of the people, united by shared: the place of birth, language, history, culture, etc, etc. . Ie Patriotism can not be everyone has his own, individual, exclusive, like a jar of shit Hirst. But conformism just always very personal, so personal, that lives somewhere between the folds of fat at each Zhloba. And the animal is (I mean conformism) we feed our indifference and cowardice, sincerely believing. this nasty monster ever grow and devour all our enemies. In other words, conformity - an aggressive timidity, fed limitations, lack of education, fear of life, which is accompanied by despondency, cynicism and the inability to believe in iskrennnost feelings of others.

   And the work is, Vladimir. Perhaps you are looking bad, but probably not there. Or, maybe you do not Vladimir, and Bill or John? If so, tell me, I understand, and everything will be clear. Sorry if offended you so terrible suspicions.
