mediocre Jeff Koons with Hearst, which represent for me the kingdom of militant plebeian

"Koons with Hurst" - an excellent collective image, but it requires clarification.
This image is not a group of artists, and some socio-psy-art-economic phenomenon. In this impersonal quality to them makes no sense to apply such definitions as "worthless".

We can say that they are - talented actors in the socio-economic performance without a title, staged by the age on the stage of art. (We all remember that the art died and freed the boards?)

Position Koons - offshoots of Dada to cultivate ever-green tree of pop art.
The functions include Hirst to another field - to the sphere of pop-modernism. He is busy and rigorous monoideist delivery of memento mori - the oligarchs and thought "dead more alive all living" - to the masses.
The latter idea is particularly clear and close post-Soviet people.

(By the way, saw the head of cows and mushin necropolis Hirst at Pinchuk Art Center.
Impressive, no kidding. Would venture to say that gifted installation. But the picture Koons - zero emotion).

Artifacts that are sold under their brand, they rarely touched his limbs:
"Jeff Koons" and "Hurst" producing factories that employ large teams of talented artists and sculptors. As far as I remember, Hirst's 240 at the hands (in the sense of, 120 masters). These services also sociologists, financial analysts and intellectuals, elites supply the consumer to the extent of the complex, but not accessible to the plebs concepts.

Summing up: as long as these guys work out your sotszakaz, they will not give much to fall. They are likely to survive the crisis and for a long time will ruin the blood nekrofilstvuyuschim art dealers.

With regard to long-term perspective, the historical justice be done and the price of their work will fall, and the larger, more products nashtampuyut design bureaus on their behalf.
But it will be a completely different era.

Thankfully, last paragraph comforted.

I thought with the current crisis will happen, but not like ... can Hirst really stand ...

article dated 16 November in New York Times indicates that Damien Hirst, along with Takashi Murakami, Richard Prince, Peter Doig, and other popular youth have already been entered in the Directorate Sotsbi proscriptions.

But that is no reason to consider his financial corpse (this thesis I have tried to justify the topic "House Phillips de Pury was unable to sell the work of Damien Hirst's")

What's that mean? What place is?

[Art-lover]

Proscription - in ancient Rome - the list of persons declared outside the law.
Management Sotsbi voted in the sense that the recent record price range of the named individuals - already outdated news, and that is not on them now to bid.
Weather now define recognized, reasonably valued artists (like by Alexander Calder), whose work has never appealed to the "new customers".

This opinion rasprotraneno. This Calder fully and in all manifestations brought Gagosian in Moscow (for Red October). But Hirst is not brought back To anyone with appealing Gagosian? Is not the new buyers?

Art-lover talking about the artists, not the dealers

[Art-lover]

Vladimir, in fact, as correctly noted LCR, it is about the target audience of artists, rather than dealers.
That is, on the shift of attention from the auctioneers artists who exploit the passion for the nouveau riche pop-music, fashion and scandal, to the artists whose work is aimed at a more discerning connoisseurs.
