"Painting — wrote Nikita Medvedev, — infinity, space, artist — permanent search, mixer for paint. The colours of the Earth, cobalt, cadmium, unknown, a mystery that is not revealed to any one master, only geniuses approached, but did not go through. It is impossible to understand van microns-дик, micron oxide, grams of ultramarine, etc. Infinity, color, color, tone. It is beyond the power of modern technology is a mystery, feeling, soul, spontaneity. The painting is eternal, it laughs at critics who say smugly that the end came.
No, gentlemen, no!
Everything is just beginning, and many more are designed, and it is possible that the mystery color will be revealed and only then the end will come.
long live the mysterious word — Painting!"
