More than 10 years ago, Warren Buffett said at a conference in Israel: “If you are looking for
oil in the Middle East, you can bypass Israel. But if you need brains, then you don’t have to
look elsewhere. Israel has demonstrated that it has a disproportionate amount of brains and
energy.” […]

Modern “Matisses” and “Van Goghs”. Followers of the traditions of the great post-impressionists
At the end of the 19th century, some artists ceased to be inspired by the principles of impressionism. They began to reject old dogmas and look for their own individual style. Then numerous directions and trends of painting began to take shape, which we know under the general concept of post-impressionism. And although they were all very different, they still had a lot in common. The Impressionists wanted to show an impression, a moment, while the Post-Impressionists wanted to show a long-term state, where everything was frozen out of time and space. They are not interested in nuances, in the paintings there is no perspective, no volume, the structure is conditional and flat. The colors are very bright, the details are mosaic. And there is always a symbolism, a hint or a reference to something. Because for post-impressionists the main thing is the internal state, their own memories and emotions, knowledge of the true essence of phenomena and things.
We offer you to look at the modern followers of the post-impressionists – no less bright and original, who also emotionally and subtly convey the essence of the world around them. […]
“Monet” and “Renoirs” of our time. Modern followers of the traditions of the great impressionists
When we talk about impressionism, there is a strong association with Degas’s ballerinas and Claude Monet’s water lilies. And then the names of Sergei Schukin, Ivan and Mikhail Morozov, who collected the famous collection of French painting, pop up. At one time, the brothers were able to discern talent and perspectives in the works of unknown artists. Then the whole world recognized these names, and their paintings became priceless!
Modern artists are still inspired by the work of the old masters. And art collectors do not miss the opportunity to replenish their collection with paintings in the spirit of the French Impressionists.
We tried to throw a “bridge” from the distant 19th century to our time and show who they are – modern “mane” and “degas”, which, like the Morozov brothers, are collected by today’s collectors. […]
