On the correctness of the list of "12 most expensive Russian artists"

For example, the poet and painter Vladimir Slepian, one of the first who left the Soviet Union, principally spoke only in French (he lived in Paris). And even meeting with his countrymen, demanding to converse in French, no doubt, therefore, expressing his "contempt" for the former homeland. Poems he wrote in French, incidentally.
And does that make it ceases to be "a Russian artist in exile"?

And what he has achieved as a result of this? Slepian was one of those who opened the history of other art, since the late 1950's. In the timeline it is on the first segment, interesting experimenter. That is, have all chances to firmly enter into the history of Russian art as an artist in a series of first names, and in fact became more as a historical personage. Dropped out of the clips. Today the name of famous art, friends and historians - the public does not know.
On the other hand, one freak of far-reaching conclusions should not do it. In addition to all these stories are often mythologized.

In my opinion there all was said, had gone to heaven, refused to talk .. What he achieved, took him on an equal footing, as is usually taken from us? Chtoto doubt. Writer misatel there is not important-money, that's the thing. Money is to be tolerated.
Today he plays jazz and tomorrow will sell the home. So it seems.

Of course, Daugavpils (Dvinsk), is Latvia. Although ... What's the difference?

At least, on Chagall recall that in Russian, he spoke with difficulty (although, and in French, too).

Thank Vladzislav, for the high appreciation of my modest capabilities
I understand that you are from Minsk, the difference between Latvia and Lithuania are markedly more visible than in Moscow. I accept in advance the reproaches of imperial arrogance. Indeed, I was wrong.
But does the fact of geographical presence in the city Dvinsk (incidentally, what? "- Of the Duchy of Courland?; Question to Cyril, he has, it seems, from all sources ) of an education empire Russia - to alleged "Russian special" great American artist's contemporary art make Rothkovich

(incidentally, what? "- The Duchy of Courland?; Question to Cyril, he has, it seems, from all sources)

When the world, and this, presumably, you mean the community of nations recognizes the art of a particular nation, then buys the product of this nation and puts them in their main national museums. And those buying in larger quantities than the significant contribution of this art in the world's treasury.

Try to vskidku examples of Russian models "Mount Olympus" in major European museums.
I can tell from France. In the Louvre, until recently, a permanent exhibition - 5. Now, it seems, already 4, was removed Aivazovsky, plus 17 icons.
In Orsay - 5, all of which exclusively presents. I must say thank you for accepting. Not always such an honor is.

Add Florence, Uffizi - one painting.

Ranzher, I've just noticed: but you do not shudder manenko?

Given some of the features of the chronology of the development of Russian art, not whether it would be more correct to refer to the permanent collection of the Pompidou Center, or the Tate Museum of Modern Art in New York?
At that time the situation will look different: even if you leave the Germans with Kandinsky Jawlensky - about Rothko, Soutine, de Stael, Polyakova, I do not even hinted at - Malevich, Goncharova, Larionov (the last two decades has been in storerooms), Exter, well and so on, everyone knows these names.

And I propose to do it differently: not only bring all these Rothko, Kossoff and other Alechinsky in place (in the list!), But also co-opt him artists of Russia bonds of kinship, so to speak, Russian par alliance. As you my idea? This will be a list - a list of all lists - and you Picasso, and Matisse, and Dali, and Leger and de Chirico ...
