I think just a little part of you knows about the Union of young artist in or city. In the same time, this Union is full of talented, teenagers and up-teenagers and they create and create and create every day and night. It is interesting to know that all this guys finished our Ryazan art school. More than that, teachers criticize them a lot for their unusual, nonacademic style of painting. They got low marks for special subject such as graphics, painting and so on. But now these students created a Union of Ryazan young artist and sell their pictures for 15000and more rubles. That means that people tired of academic painting, we live in XXI century and its time for new crazy ideas, for new well - paid ideas))
Different strokes for different folks... Well, once one of the most talented people of art Leonid Kursky (he is photographer and a teacher of art of photography and cinematography) said: "It is impossible to teach, but it is possible to learn" and "First do as it is required, then - as you like". You may not agree with his point of view, but somehow and for some people it is true.
Everybody has a right to express his or her views and ideas through art. How can strict rules of art be formulated? Сreative work is always free and unpredictable. The teacher can only help to find a proper direction here. (Not point but help to find!) I see what you want to say, Lovefootball. Yes, not all people who go to art schools are extracreative and genious, not all of them will become famous and called-for in the future. But if we try to set certain rules of how they should draw their pictures and restrict the freedom of thought completely they won't be able to invent anything new! "Do all pupils require individual attention"? Yes, if we mean the pupils who are prepared for creative jobs.
People whose heads are full of fresh unusual ideas and extraordinary thoughts are often misunderstood by the majority. It's normal and low marks are not a reason to give up. That's why, the members of the Union are attaguys for sure!
The time has come to change the world! All fun, crazy and creative ideas are welcome!
