If one describes the range of trade fairs in one sentence, then it's a battle Pancake with Lent. In the sense that, on the one hand, there is traditionally dominated by nude in various forms, on the other - each year is added every Orthodox subjects. However, both these kitch izoproduktsii peacefully coexist with each other. Ten years ago, "Art Manege" trying to compete with the "Art-Moscow", but now the latter need not worry: no matter how bad the "Art-Moscow" to fall deeper into the "Art-Manege" nowhere to go. The few decent galleries (gallery Pauline Lobachevsky, for example), whose stands can be seen here in years past, eliminated from participation in the event, which is not much different from passing in the basement of an arena Fur Salon: In essence, this is also a New Year Bazaar quite expensive souvenirs.

Clients from a Russian manufacturer ruthlessly flies Venetian Energenesi Art Gallery with a wonderful attraction: a huge rotating around its axis golden walnut work Gianfranco Medzhato, a great admirer of art whose reputation for being sophisticated aesthetes such as Silvio Berlusconi's players club Inter Milan.

However, among the manifold forms of artistic life could find something really valuable. On the stand of the Moscow gallery "Art-Rankor" there was a whole section of the works of the brilliant book graphics, a friend and collaborator May Miturich Duvidova Victor (1932-2000): Pages from a notebook (from $ 150 to $ 1,5 thousand) and painting ($ 2 - 6 thousand).

Gallery of St Petersburg "Art Object" acted with a little thematic exhibition "St. Petersburg bridges, composed of landscape artists of the last appeal" of the Leningrad school, "as the" left LOSHa "and the right of the underground: Boris Borscht (45 thousand rub.) Anatoly Zaslavsky (90-200 thousand rubles.) Aaron Zinshtein (60-120 thousand rubles.) Alexander Bihtera (40-60 thousand rubles.) and Oleg Frontinskogo (60-80 thousand rubles).. Valery Lukka, another leader of the "left LOSHa, in recent years fallen into a relaxed salon, was presented at the stand of the Moscow-St Petersburg Ars Longa (€ 5-15 million). Whereas the "left MOSH" in the form of painting by Natalia Nesterova ($ 30-32 thousand) and Vladimir Brainin ($ 9 thousand) can be purchased at the "Gallery Manege". Contemporary art at the fair was limited to special projects Anna acorn that sold its trademark "wire" sculpture, and Sergei Yakunin, putting wonderful interactive facility devoted to Russian absurdist, from Gogol to Harms (Gallery Kultproekt, up to € 10 thousand). Moreover personalkoy neoekspressionista Constantine Sutyagin, which is high time to enroll in the actual artists (Gallery Art Cottage, 130-180 thousand rubles)..

But those who have to invest in art does not strive, may be of interest non-profit projects fair. First, an unexpected tour of the Tambov Regional Art Gallery with Falk, Kuprin, Konchalovsky, Pimenov and completely anecdotal Deineko: cross-country skier in the gold-embroidered red track suit with some kokoshniks on the head called "The Snow Maiden." Secondly, the art exhibition in memory of Xenia Bohemian, a former leading Russian expert on naive art: a collection of works collected by her Pavel Leonov, Katya Medvedeva, Yelena Volkova, Alexander Lobanov, Nikiforov and very appropriate in this context, the nonconformist, Vladimir Yakovlev was represented by her son, writer Alexei Turchin, who intends to continue the work of his dead mother. And, thirdly, showing an excellent collection of modern art cardiac surgeon Michael Alshibaya. Among his treasures is a magnificent and still-life remake derenovskogo brush Avdei Ter-Oganyan. His work was first exhibited in the Arena after the infamous performance of chopping icons "Young atheist", which took place at "Art Manege 1998. Erupted after the action Avdei Ter-Oganyan scandal led to a change in leadership fairs, gradual banishment from her contemporary art and eventually to its current sorry state.
