On the contrary, it seems quite expensive. Vobschem, drank blood from a student: D

I asked the question, of course, out of curiosity, but quite interesting to know how are prices formed on contemporary art in the USSR.

quite interesting to know how are prices formed on contemporary art in the Soviet Union.

Complete picture I have not, in my opinion, pricing, largely depended on the urgent need for money, ambition - or neoborot, complete indifference to fame - the artist. Friends of selling cheap, so I (and not only me) was able to buy quite a lot of pictures.
Zverev sold his work from 5 to, say, 30 pp., Rarely more. Parents Volodya Volodya Yakovlev sold paintings on 5-9-12 pp. depending on size. Pyatnitskii also sold on p 15-30.

There were, of course, artists who were selling much more expensive - Oscar Rabin, Volodya Nemukhin, Lidia Masterkova ...
Zhenya Rukhin came from Peter, sold, I think, at p. 200-300., Hot and Zelenin - also surveying at such prices.

One of the most expensive was a certain Kandaurov, it cost something like 500 pp. or even more. I remember once, shortly before his departure, Glaser went to this Kandaurov and bought him a few pictures at a decent amount. And lianozovtsev Glezer bought everything with a big discount. They found out about it, and Oscar with large Glaser talked. As a result, the case Glezer had to return the picture and take the money

Vladimir G. Weisberg also sold his work much.

Kharitonov already at that time thought kvardatnye centimeters (as you can see, the sun is nothing new).
Sveshnikov was too expensive, prices do not specifically remember.

Roginsky sold very little, I think, when he called me the price of 300 rubles. And I agreed, he was the first surprise

That's all that came to mind when we remember still, supplemented.

Here Zverev, once seen, understood the thrust of the common man to art. But 500 rubles! ... Who is this?! ... Academy probably does not always pay so much ...

I've heard, and I think that there is a sense that the picture of a modern, more famous, the artist should be worth 1 average monthly salary of the middle class. Then all is well, and the artist, and people, and the art market is developing.

And curiously, that was in general demand. If you have options with sales.

Academy, perhaps, so much does not always pay ...

Here are the details from me.
Ministries A Culture of the RSFSR and the USSR bought pictures artists from 600 to 1500 rubles. This from exhibitions. (The amount may vary)
Those who worked at the Combine pictorial art, received fees, depending on the order, which they performed (500-1500руб.)
Some well-established artists themselves were in the so-called "garantiyke", this meant that the artist received a monthly salary of 200 rubles. (In advance), and then could "close" all the money received by one or two great works.
(When Stozharau died, I was summoned to the plant and said "payback for you!) Had to return.
I do not remember about the members of the Academy of Arts, but the actual members of the Academy of Arts, received 300 rubles a month. regardless of whether they wrote the picture or not.

Where to sell paintings? I sold in salons and on Lenin Kuznetsk, but after I bought my paintings for sale by its artistic council did not take.

Where to sell paintings?

In the export-saloon at Smolensk prices were from 100 rubles. up to 800 rubles.
And the artists get rubles, despite the fact that the salon was selling the work for the currency.
Only about two years for three before his departure, MA Bakuleva "knocked out" the decision to pay artists 10%(!!!) of the amount of the fee in foreign currency, which is converted to foreign currency rubles (nonsense!), And those in turn, to check Vneshtorgbank.
In general, durIli our brother.

Around 1986-1989. We must ask Khoroshilova when he assumed the post of Director of the Salon of exports. So, three years before him.

And that in Soviet times had to buy? Crystal, gold and paintings. And the best gift was of course, painting.
Artists, almost all very good living, got an apartment, workshops, materials and work orders.

buy apartments

It is not, artists do not get an apartment. They could join the cooperative, which they did. Workshops and if received, then in such a place and form as to lead the them in the divine form, still had a lot of money to spend.
Materials are not issued and sold at a discount upon presentation of the ticket is a member of the CX.
Veronic, do not need to idealize Soviet life, if it was sweet not appear to artists such as Roginsky.
