Top 20 young Russian artists
ARTinvestment.RU   06 августа 2013

Art of the most expensive of young Russian artists (even those whose names have long been at the hearing) is still quite affordable. "Admission" in the top-20 will cost less $ 5,000

source of inspiration for our new rating served as the recent curious the world's top 10 most expensive works by artists under the age of 33 years , which are derived from two names. Not wanting this fate to their authors, we used our traditional rule of "one artist - one painting».

In addition, the age limit for the young artist decided to raise from 33 to 35 years. Because that's what this age is taken as a formal criterion of "young artist" in Russian competitions, prizes and biennials. In particular, 35 years - is closing for the category "New Generation" award "Innovation" category for the "Young Artist" in the Kandinsky Prize, to participate in the Moscow International Biennale for Young Art Youngart.ru, for Scholarship CSK "garage" and many other projects for young artists. So, reluctantly, we had to be excluded from the ranking of all those born before 1979.

the following selection criteria: place of birth - the USSR. Therefore, the ratings were not only our fellow citizens today, but other artists of the orbit of Russian art from near and far abroad - whether Ukraine, France or the UK. So do not be confused by the names of the individual - the way it was intended.

And of course, our rating, as always, is based solely on the public auction sales. Gallery-transaction shall not be considered, since the case is painfully dark. Prices do not include buyer's premium and are traditionally given in the transaction currency and in U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at the date of sale. So here's what we've got.

What can be noted on the results?

Art of young Russian artists (even those whose names have long been at the hearing) is still relatively cheap. "Admission" in the top-20 will cost less $ 5,000. Already at 8 000-10 000 U.S. collectors could buy the best things well known to us Akhmetgalieva , Valeria Chtak or less known to us," Russian French » Vitaly Rusakov . French gallery graffiti last brought home recently in Moscow for Fine Art - where they told the artist is quite popular. In total, you will be surprised to buy up all the top 20 young Russian art collector or a hypothetical investor would have had 218,903 dollars (adjusted for the condition of "one artist - one picture»).

Searchers universal" formula for success "in the art and will be disappointed this time. One of the dominant style and direction in the work of the champions can not be traced. On the contrary, a wide range of genres. From postmodernism to realism. According to the technique, too, full of variety. There are graphics, photography, and textiles, and ceramics. But still, 11 of the 20 works - paintings (oil on canvas or acrylic). This hi to those who have long predicted the death of art in general and contemporary art in particular.

So, the art form and genre defining works is not important. However, it is clear that in order to be successful, must be "trending" - not in Russian, and worldwide. It's trying to make the young Russian artists: their work is extremely actualized.

for this in some cases, they use the most acute social problems, the actual visual motifs and artistic techniques, mixing styles and genres of art in the postmodern spirit . Stencil-like patterning on the surface of the canvas, as in graffiti, or receptions Digital art in painting. However, in spite of her post-modernism and sharp social orientation, the authors clearly do not forget that these works should also be pleasing to the eye and fit into the design of modern interiors. Hence - the smoothness and a touch of gloss, gestures toward realism (photorealism). And of course, credited to customers in a huge plus is the fact that our rated young artists have managed to do without romantic and sugary nudes, which massively sell at auction (fortunately mostly in interior bid), and even more enthusiastic blog post.

Another thing that catches your eye - is a big gap between the first and second results. Record innovative digital art Oleg Oleg Dou separates from the second place - painting Veronica Smirnova - as much as 20,000 dollars. By the way, cost us to break the rule of "one artist - one picture" - and Russian Ambassador program Adobe Photoshop (in April 2012, the work of Oleg Dou graced the cover version of Photoshop CS6) would take his work an additional seven sites in our ranking. Why not Liu Chunsi ? But our Dow even two years younger.

Surprisingly, almost half of the records in our top 20 accounts for the period 2011-2013. So this is not some pre-crisis "business days gone by", and quite a lively commercial process.

noteworthy the fact that only six works from the ranking top 20 were their high scores on our national auction - at the Kiev "golden section" and at the Moscow VLADEY and auction "Russian Art Gallery." All other cash collected at foreign auctions, often at Phillips, who, however, also belongs to Russian owners. And it's not only that there is a prophet in his own country. And not only in the fact that in Russia the purchase of works of young artists is still regarded almost as a freak. And also the fact that the national auction infrastructure, working with contemporary art, is just beginning to take shape. The same auction VLADEY recently spent only his first bid, and the old-timers of the Moscow auction market for contemporary art (especially art of the XXI century) is not working properly and the audience of buyers is small, and good commissions on low-priced items do not make money. But soon this niche of affordable contemporary art will attack other retail formats - new electronic platform for which there is strong behind the off-line reputation. In particular, recently the structure of Sergei Gridchina (owner of the art residences Gridchinhall) announced the launch in September of a new electronic platform Artlet.com - once with a thousand works of nearly 200 contemporary artists. In our rating they will not get (there is no auction principle), but we also all need to go, and do not have cheap.
