Re: Lynette Yiadom Boakye?

You wonder why Nicholaas Chiao is disrespected? He was not born in a NATO country. He is from Belarus, a totalitarian, severely underdeveloped, impoverished country under the same man, Alexander Lukashenko, for many years. Lukashenko is not a big supporter of the arts. Not a big supporter of science...

Re: What is Art?

Science has more things to discover, I believe. This is unfortunate, but art has reached its limits sooner than science. You can endlessly compose something, but the shock of the new will not be ignited anymore. Science is still here to discover and manufacture new materials, improve energy generati...

Miniature Black Holes could be our Souls

If a star could become a black hole, why couldn't the energy-releasing life forms be the same, but on a miniature scale? Once you become a small black hole, you could be reborn into a new life form. Wishful thinking? Time and research will show.

Re: Maurizio Cattelan's Comedian sells for 6.24 million dollars at Sotheby's

Is this sale a harbinger of the imminent hyperinflation of the dollar? Indeed, a lot of fuss over one simple work. Or rather, how much it was valued and sold for. Such examples of conceptual art are already well known to art connoisseurs. Galleries have seen trash as art, urination as performance an...

Re: AI artist Ai-Da portrait of Alan Turing sold by Sotheby's for million dollars

Indeed, the uniqueness of this work is added by the fact that it was created by a robot with artificial intelligence. In our cynical world, many things are possible. Many collectors can really be bribed by the uniqueness that is the authorship of a machine. And unfortunately for people, artificial i...

Re: Amoako Boafo: Egon Schiele repackaged & rebranded?

A young artist with a strong specialization in portraiture. His works are characterized by the use of flat monochrome backgrounds, mostly yellow, and the use of impasto in the treatment of bodies and, especially, faces. Indeed, Egon Schiele used similar techniques in the treatment of faces, but more...

Re: Swiss artist Nicolas Party

A salon-slick type of naive art. Life is full of bright colors and childish characters. Undoubtedly, the high prices of this artist are the result of his excellent connections in the education system of NATO countries. As we can see, beautiful dreams and happy faces are still in demand, at least by ...

Re: Anna Weyant - Canadian-American Artist

Anna Weyant is certainly a good resurrection of the best of John Currin and a bit of Rene Magritte. Her early still lifes impress with the simplistic beauty of good classical painting in brownish color schemes. Her early portraits are also a good and cozy approach to themes. She has transferred her ...

Re: Aboudia - Long term superstar or short term auction speculation?

I remember this artist from Charles Saatchi exhibitions. To be honest, his pictorial motifs inspired me to something from the world of African history and populated my own canvases with dark characters and their tribal masks. In many ways, a child's vision of the world in the same unpretentious pict...

Re: Maurizio Cattelan's Comedian sells for 6.24 million dollars at Sotheby's

It is relevant. I had a similar idea a few years ago to stun people with million-dollar banana prices straight in Key Food. But it was not realizable. The value of money is due to the reputation of governments, so the artist's brand commands the artist's price. In an era of computers and 3d printers...
