Lure Of Painting

♪ I would also like to ask you not to pay attention to the screams and conspiracies of those who somehow consider themselves the voice of the people. I leave aside the fact that the voice of the people is far from being respected: the German people supported Hitler, the Soviet people demanded the " people ' s enemies " of dog death, although they were innocent. History shows that power, if it pleases, turns the people exactly where they need power. And the people are a bad judge when it comes to art. Remember how the great Prokofiev and Shostakovic, Pasternaca and Ahmatov were shackled with the full and very warm support of the people.

Today ' s celebrities for the so-called purity of temptations, those who are scorned to insult the feelings of faithful Christians, Muslims and others, are nothing different from the fanatic members of ISIL (Organizations prohibited in the Russian Federation) who, to the outrage of the world, have destroyed and destroyed the unique ancestral monuments because they, these monuments, insult their religion. These are barbarians, no more and no less. It is fearful to think that the current " champions " would have done if they were allowed to go to the Louvre, to the Athens Anti Museum, to Uffft, where there are pictures and statues of naked men and women, and even children with very visible secondary sexual characteristics.

In fact, your criticisms and adversaries speak illiterate, a complex of inferiority, a thirst for destruction and a complete lack of tolerance for anything they don't like.

I congratulate you again, one of the few artists who had the courage to name things with their names.
