Today's artists need to work better

  London never swarmed as many artists as it does now - but what we remember?

  When it comes to quantity, art lovers in the 21 century England have done it. A number of exhibitions and events on offer striking appearance, the number of known artists defies all laws of cultural gravity. I mean, we - as art stars? Tens. You can even expect our celebrities, hundreds of artists.

  In New York in 1980, were probably five or six artists who were known in this way, and this was the time and place when people thought the art of becoming a priest. There was simply no point in modern history, when the city teemed with so renowned artists, as London does now. There is a real sense in which the artist will be here, too, gives all the glory of you.

  But there is a chance for all of 20 years, giving the Flying Fondue of at least 5%of our famous artists? And does it matter? We can assume that the answer in the eyes of many people, no. We do not care if, say, Bob and Robert Smith will be remembered as a great artist - a concern for the future. Perhaps this is the apocalyptic sentiments, the current thinking: why we should care about the verdict of history on us, when we suspect there will not be much future history in any case?

I (Constantine) translated for AlexanderG, to understand the meaning, of course need to strain.

In the United States at 200-odd million population - 3,5 million artists.
Australia 22 million population - 250 thousand artists.
Approximately 10-15 artists per 1000 population. Frightening.
Could anyone have statistics for other countries?

And who should be considered artists? In the west you can go to the toll design school where for two weeks will be taught how to combine the curtains and padded stools in the tone and is an artist. There sovdepovskie that 5-6 years were enrolled in institutions. Things are not very comparable in content.
