Ne soglasen v korne. Professional vsegda ob etom zabotitsia. Eto opredeliaet professionala - make living out of his job (doslovno perevesti slozno).

Hence, what some of Van Gogh or Filonov (which I myself can not stand, but which is considered a great artist and that is expensive - is it not an argument for curator?) In the professional record does not, as they have never lived on the money from his work

Sam ne ponimaiu do kontsa, no nekotorye idei - legche chem kopat ', modno, naivnost' i nezrelost 'itd.

"It's easier than digging, fashionable naiveté" - and that's all you found?

Do not get me wrong: I believe that the profession of gallery owners is necessary, honorable, and deservedly prestigious, but do not forget that a product, selling gallerist whose livelihood depends on, is created - or, if you prefer, is - an artist, that is, he stands in on your well-being.
After all, at the very least, for lack of gallerist artist can just go outside (or go to the trading house Sotheby's - so, too, happened not so long ago, is not it?) And sell their work, bypassing the gallery, and gallery owner, without the artist's need to retraining as superintendent. This, I think, to remember.
All I ask of you, Alexander, is a little less condescension and contempt for your breadwinner
