What a long way to do that we still can understand seeing a new museum in Munich, built by order of the Bavarian government for the needs of a large collection of contemporary art Uno and Anette Brandhorst. In the early 70-ies wife Brandhorst took up collecting works of authors who have left an imprint on the art of the twentieth century (the first of their acquisition was a collage of Juan Miro).

Today, in this collection contains examples of the work almost all the most outstanding authors of the XX and XXI centuries. Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Joseph Beuys, Bruce Nauman, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst and Mike Kelly - just some of the names whose art is represented in the collection of more than 700 points.
Special pride of the museum is the art of Cy Twombly (this is the largest collection of works by Twombly outside the U.S.). Special room specially adapted for his famous series of 12 large-format works Lepanto.
It is important to add that, along with fine art in the range of interests included Brandhorstov and literature. This passion shows 112 original editions of books illustrated by Picasso.

I'm here writing about Khardzhiev (do not want a duplicate), but over time can come up something from the Russian Avant-Garde from the Collection Khardzhiev, but who can 100%say that this is not fake? (not sure if there is a complete inventory of all that was in his archive)

   The likelihood that someone can take advantage of uncertainty and mystery, which have been formed around this collection is very large. May even be already used. Who knows!

    In the above article and stated:
"Khardzhiev never tell anyone, as he became the owner of eight paintings by Malevich and many of his drawings and sketches."
And also:
"He never was an inventory of his collection, entirely relying on a brilliant memory. He was never anyone, under any pretext, never let the collection thing."

In other words, there are opportunities for people with imagination!

    Allena, how can a credible person, who called the best expert on the works of Malevich today Alexandru Semyonovna Shatskikh somehow "E. Shatskih"?
     Generally in the article is inaccurate and absurd, suggesting that the person who wrote it, not familiar with the matter. It seems that the article was written with someone else's words and has to impose a certain conclusion. There are suspicions that the paper is customized ...
      Just think, that the use of speculation in the article without the possibility for people who appear in these rumors, to offer its interpret the events, does not permit relates to the publication and its author as a serious investigation.

    Quote:

  "We firmly know that the archive owned by Khardzhiev and dear to him as life itself, the FSB unceremoniously climbed into private life. This was not invited" duty judge "with the knowledge of the provincial guide, and a connoisseur of the avant-garde, as the author of books about Malevich E. Shatskih.

All in the narrow world of Russian avant-garde connoisseurs knew what a devastating criticized Khardzhiev book Shatskih, especially the chapter on Malevich. However, you remember, what was the nature of a Khardzhiev? For example, the assessment was too cantankerous. But the mutual hostility. Shatskikh also responded very unflattering and the famous hardzhievskoy editing, and the knowledge of avant-garde.

Three months, day after day, froze the art in the cold basement, without the right to record or disclose the essence of their work. FSB has never officially recognized this expertise and do not disclose the results. But, I dare to suggest that even of Shatskih security service was unable to obtain the desired output. is becoming increasingly evident that the archive will have to return to the owner. "

Yes, it's true. In general, paper made a strange impression on me, but at first I did not want to speak.
It must nevertheless be said that both respond to Sasha Shatskih, trained and impeccably honest art can only someone who sovevrshenno unfamiliar with the medium of art. But I realized that the author - a universal specialist, who now writes about the archives Khardzhiev, and tomorrow - about the crash at the power plant ...
Alas, the Renaissance, when it was not necessarily specialize in a particular area, has long since ended.
Oh my, these journalists

Here's another oddity:

"Then I bought them Khardzhiev? Let's say right away: no one knows. Khardzhiev never tell anyone how he became the owner of of eight paintings by Malevich and many of his drawings and sketches."

Why eight paintings "? I counted at least sixteen works executed in oils and published as a picture (if you take a picture of the work written oil) from the collection Khardzhiev. Perhaps, the article refers to the work Suprematist? Then let them really eight pieces (those where publishing at least). But well have to write! In my opinion, inexcusable negligence for claims to the seriousness of the article.
