Do not be afraid to seem sincere in dealing with the artist. If you like his work - you will be forgiven a lot

If this assessment approach to the artist

No, of course, not everyone, but most accurate.
Maskit, I liked the work of one artist. He, by the way, say the old man already. And I was planning to write an article about it, and pick up work for the exhibition. To this end, I had planned to visit him in the studio. When I agreed to meet him, saying that I am a big fan of his work (he, incidentally, did not know me or what I do) at the last moment I decided not to talk about that pick up the paintings on exhibition, and limited by the fact that collecting material for this article. So he met me with an air of displeasure, and shows me a couple of his works, which I quite disappointed by the style and sound. Not showing his bewilderment, I tried to explain that this is not enough for any articles, nor to the general impression about the last years of his work, what he says to me: I do not need any paper. I want money, or buy something that shows, or forsake the premises. Normally you? And I really came because she loved his work >

Well done, a certain style of work were needed, had to go to another artist that terrible competitor first and work, which I also liked. An appointment, saying, as the article, not a word about the exhibition. I arrived, a table covered with the artist shines, the whole shop for me.
Q: With which of the two artists I'm working on? >
Previously Alexander Grigoriev wrote about how he artists for his gallery picks and I still do not understand why he has such criteria. Now, I fully agree with them.

Better then not to come (and that in fact may be asked to come another time)

Who will ask the artist? > So you can not come, it's even better - saving time and nerves.

if he does not need paper, and need the money, which is directly and was told what to climb to it with articles?
And rightly so, that he asked to leave.
And the fact that his work after that you just lose one's attraction says that you do not love his work and himself next to his work.

Suha theory , my friend, a green tree of life ...

artcol, The artist is always in love with something that does, otherwise it makes no sense to begin. In this sense, narcissism is often available > And actually that's why it can be praised for all artists to ask questions , to buy or not to buy the artist's offending is difficult , he is his own judge . But to say that all artists and fools somehow strange.
Although take this nonsense seriously can not , of course.

You see, my dear fellow , as if to say polite , without papers, sometimes it is difficult to coin money , or it can earn , but the dimensions have money are not what we would like. >
And I did not lose one's attraction his work does , he's not alone in this world , we just need to find podnapryachsya and will be happy. Oh, and I began to better understand the dealers who prefer to work with the legacy of the artist , not showing minimal interest in him during his lifetime.

"To love the artist's work" and "work with the artist" are two different things.

iside, if you are professionally engaged in interviews and articles , you would know that the free interview given just beginning art figures. because they need it themselves. How ever known give an interview for the money , the rate of several thousand to several hundred thousand dollars for the interview. And in Russia, it also works . Wants to issue an interview with Alla P. ? preparing thousands of EUR 100.
Held on the artist no articles young journalists are no longer needed for it and held on .
Dealers are working with living artists, as is often the only opportunity to purchase original works of the first grade of the author. Review of works on display in the " for sale " section of this forum , this thesis demonstrates eloquently .
All the masterpieces of Picasso found their owners during the life of the author. No posthumous sales Picasso was not. The secondary market feeds on the second and third row of masterpieces such as the old man and beggar boys, girls on the ball , wandering circus did not appear and will be available than ever before.

Perhaps you are relying on some exceptional cases , but overall , it's not working. Another thing is that both sides should be interested in the result. Without this, it will not work.

Seriy, you have time to start a separate topic on this form, where you could professionally advise all "not- professionals" as they conduct their business . And then where can we poor to go without your virtuous tips on how to live? >
For your information, Alla Pugacheva - this is not an art activity , and even not a singer, it's show business by the name " Diva ." I interviewed with her is not necessary, even if I pay for it , because we live in different worlds , and in my world about her, her many spouses , relatives , etc., and no one knows the total value of all their names, as brands - below zero.

I wish you a speedy transformation into a " more or less well-known" so earn more money than the sales in the CHA . >

Vladimir, prices for interviews periodically appear in print.
About Alla P. sum has long been known, no khalyavnykh interview does not give a very long time.

And if all agree to for free, why do not you do an interview with Hirst, Hockney?

Of course, there are different experiences with the artist - a true artist is always a person and not always easy. There they also have different circumstances , hangovers, dipressii , fatigue, or someone's visit to vas.U I was not successful experiments first visits to the artists with whom we became friends in the future with all its consequences . We must have perseverance and be able to wait any experience will be useful and you 'll be fine.
