Oleg Oleg Vasiliev - one of the key artists of the post-war unofficial art. His outstanding work «birch grove on the outskirts of Moscow» estimated at 60-90 thousand pounds. This almost photorealistic Russian landscape like to call «metaphysical» - in the center of the composition is a bright white light, through which dirty forest trail seems expensive for the unknown. Forecast AI - 60 thousand pounds.
Oscar Rabin. Violin in the cemetery. 1970
original still lifes and landscapes, created in the 1960's and 1970's years, enjoyed high-profile attention of collectors and investors. And the plot of the paintings - the most valuable. Thus, very similar «Violin at the cemetery», created in 1969-m, is among the most expensive of the artist. In November 2006, it brought at auction Macdougall's 168,5 thousand pounds. However, to say that the case has started a new trend, it is not. Not «Violin», which will be exhibited at Christie's, has received only modest estimeyt - 20-30 thousand. Record it, of course, do not install, but at 45 thousand pounds a seller might expect.
Alexander Kosolapov. Woman to ikre. 2000
At Christie's also a well-known critical work of leading social art Alexander Kosolapov . The painting, estimated at 15-20 thousand pounds, depicts the characters of Russian «export goods» (as they seemed at the time) - the cover of the banks of black caviar and uninhibited woman. Many have compared kosolapovskie delicacies, which first appeared in his works in 1985, with banks, soup uorholovskimi Campbell - both as an eloquent speaker of the characters. But the soup Campbell - is something ordinary and everyday, and black caviar - the object of worship, ostentatious consumption and debauchery. While Warhol puts ordinary object on a pedestal, just send Kosolapov batten on the object that there has long been. The forecast for the AI calves Kosolapov - 18 thousand pounds. This is probably ten times less than the price the banks of black caviar, which came to cover this size.
At the auction on June 9 exhibited interesting work Unknown - picture «Mask» 1985 year. The mask is one of the main images in the iconography of the Unknown (remember at least «mask of sorrow», a monument to victims of Gulag in Magadan).

Oleg Dou. Neck. From the series Naked Faces. 2006
Employment of young (b. 1983) Moscow artist Oleg Dou (Duryagina) measured in 2-3 thousand pounds sterling.

The highest estimeyt received a picture of Oleg Vasiliev «Olga and Natasha» (1979). It is estimated at 180-220 thousand pounds.

picture Kosolapov, stated in the catalog Sotheby's, is one of the key works of social art. According to his artist, the company Coca-Cola, even going to submit to him in court, because the work was created at the height of the Cold War, and saw it, people might think that the manufacturer of the famous American gazirovki supports communism. Fortunately, the artist's lawyer was able to prove that Kosolapov has the same right to represent my company logo, as well as other artists who made use of «Cola», - Jasper Johns (Jasper Johns) and Andy Warhol (Andy Warhol). By the end, the Soviet kontseptualista was not to discredit Coca-Cola, but to show that Lenin - is the same brand for the USSR, as the famous gazirovka - to the States. Estimeyt pictures - 25-35 thousand pounds. The future buyer will have to bear in mind two things: first, it will not be the only one who has a job, and secondly, it will dispose of the author's repetition is very important and famous paintings, reproductions of which included all the books on modern Russian art.

Osmolovsky - a Moscow artist kontseptualist in 1990 celebrated its radical shares (performance on the shoulder of the Mayakovsky monument, the word of three letters on Red Square, etc.). But it was a long time. Today Osmolovsky - that held the artist, winner of Kandinsky, the curator. The works, which are part of his series of «Bread», to the intent of the artist must be seen as contemporary sacred objects. These wooden sculptures at first glance resemble the usual pieces of bread (by the way, the bread served venerated by some cults), but there are also similarities with darkened by time, ancient icons, images which are already indistinguishable. Among the exhibits, which could be seen «Bread», - Kassel Documenta, «I believe!» Wineries and exhibition at the nominees Kandinsky Prize in 2007 (which became the winner of Osmolovsky).
