In the years I was born, painting was known as a revolutionary weapon, omnipresent poster was more pure than the present graffiti.
In the years I received my education, the highest state of painting was a combination of revolutionary realism and revolutionary romanticism.
Today I'm a grown up man, painting finally becomes painting itself, but it's not pure, it can become anything or nothing.
