A new layer of the WALL - Painting and time spent on this work, would have been enough for 10-15 (20-30) canvases, of which 3-6 would have been successful  - by the artist Kirill Kto has appeared on the Wall.

"It often happens that street artists are partly or fully in demand among art concomporaries. On the one hand, it's good to be appreciated and you can live from the sale of works. But on the other hand, it's sad. 

Many have completely abandoned the street and unauthorized creativity in favor of profitable conformal interior works. Of course, painting on the legal wall - this is not an unauthorized activity in the city, but it is on it, as it is visible live to the gallery owners living at Winzavod and its visiting collectors, I decided to report that I have not re-profiled finally as many (I will not list here, these sad examples are well known) and continue to do what you can not buy the property and hang in the living room. The same is true for the city. 

No matter how sterile and hostile the urban reality is to the appearance of the works (most of them are painted over within 24 hours), I continue to act regularly there as well. That is, yes, I literally deprive the market of new works, but I leave myself some reason for self-respect," comments Kirill Kto commented on my work.

For 20 years Kirill Kto has made his way from a street chronicler to a gallery artist (Kirill's exhibitions are held in the Syntax Gallery in the capital), his signature colorful phrases have become recognizable handwriting and folk proverbs for the walls as the words of a familiar song.
