XXXII Antique Shop in the CHA

[Vladimir]

Tomorrow, or rather today , Friday, opens XXXII Antique Show in Central House of Artists . We went to the Konstantin on the opening reception . Ask " how was " too early , so talk to gallery owners are increasingly dumped into politics. "The elections - and then a riot - after March 8 ." Surprisingly, no panic and skepticism among those surveyed were not observed. Solid positive and does not seem that people are just refreshing.

Leonid Shishkin, full of optimism , said that the feelings people have started to get money from the egg capsules . Maybe because it has to be congratulated on the first sale, directly to predpokaze . The case is not common, but it happens sometimes.

Generally reception on the occasion of the opening event of cabin was very quiet . Nothing special. The same discovery , but people are much less walk to the stands VIP- collectors ( Friedman said , Remchukov , Guseva ) and all the gallery owners are present in their places.
So, all the same interest rates, right?

At Elysium is no exaggeration - the most luxurious stand, with a design project. Topic - monuments graphic theater . On this occasion, erected in the center pedestal , decorated with theatrical posters .

In the past , our cabin was represented by James Battervik Chashnik schedule and was very pleased , sold 4 drawing. Now , too, is full of optimism. Things are not so expensive , but effective .

Cool pictures of Sophia Filonovsky Zaklikovskoy - 40 and 30,000 dollars respectively.
Pictures of Michael Sokolov - 30 and 20 thousand dollars
Bogomazov (James believes the most powerful thing your stand ) - 30 thousand dollars
Yet he has a series of drawings Grain ( all together 80 000 dollars). The set is missing two . James showed us the reproductions of these drawings - maybe someone from the members of the forum met ?

And yesterday I went to the salon. The stands were not all ready , but most of the second floor were in full combat readiness. Salon is not particularly impressed when you first view only wanted to buy a Christmas Konosere , but the price was exactly three times higher than I expected to hear. There are good graphics in Elysium and Batervika surprised a lot of the old masters , in general , of course, is a big plus that the salon has become possible to buy Bruegel .
However, there were also falshachki , though not in the central zone , and in extreme ranks , but the fact ! - In the salons of the past was not at all, and yesterday I met a very wild Kuznetsova , Shevchenko, Serebryakov , Kuprin - this is what can be seen from afar, without going into details.

[Konstantin]

Well let's begin.
 The number of participants decreased, but increased the size of the stands.
The fact that the number of participants is reduced, it was clear already at the Salon d'Automne . By the spring even then , many were skeptical , plus more choices with the holidays - the worst time, it seems hard to imagine.
But surprisingly the mood of participants - optimistic . Why not? Many talk about the good start , and especially in February . Moreover , this VIP reception seems (after today's meetings will be completely clear picture ) is qualitatively different from previous ones, when they came almost random people . Now a lot of specific conversations and even the first sale.
Well, God forbid .
General plans .
