Chinese new year, more precisely, the spring Festival is celebrated on the second new moon after December 21. In 2019, it falls on February 5

the Growth of interest in Russian art as a gift from the people of China notes "China radio International". The Chinese prefer to buy not only the canvases, and the canvases together with exclusive copyright.

Why? I can only assume that in a country where a huge number of artists-копиистов, this is an additional measure of protection against replication of plots. Maybe in the future the owner can make use of the image. How do I know. But such specificity.

Prefer the Chinese classics, academic painting. In the report of International radio of China reported that the popular topics of the buyers remain winter landscapes, still lifes and unexpectedly, the subjects with the running horses. Among the most popular authors are Professor St.-Петербургского state academic Institute of painting, sculpture and architecture named I. E. Repin. But I guess that is just one example.

the Chinese have historically love Russian art. Previously, the Soviet Union sent to the country of Russian teachers, and the people of China so far know and appreciate our art. I saw it myself. When we invited one of the frequent questions our Chinese colleagues were just like, "How do we buy art in Russia?". Alas, overregulation and bureaucracy are serious barriers to the export of Russian art. Yes, many of the paintings formally take is not prohibited. But the procedure of processing of their export dramatically worsens the conditions of business.
