There is No Such Question: NeoPopRealism or Zentangle. Zentangle is a Fraud
There is NO such question: NeoPopRealism
or zentangle. Zentangle is a fraud. Everyone who has IQ 80 score (minimum is 70) and who is able to analyze things can see
where zentangle came from.
It was just a conversation between two people, an artist and a lawyer. Now, is a popular joke: "Lawyer said, "What a term 'zentangle' means?" Artist said, "Zen is "top", tangle is "crooked". All together
is "top crooks"."
Zentangle = top crooks
= zen grifters. (Grifter - a person who swindles people by means of deception or fraud.) And those people who support them
would do anything for money, for little money. Moral decadence.

Learn How to Draw NeoPopRealism Ink Images with New Book for Beginners
 NeoPopRealism ink drawing consists out of sections, filled with different repetitive patterns.
It could be some complicated ornaments or just zigzag, dots, circles, or small and simple flowers, anything - depending on
your imagination and artistic skills. NeoPopRealism ink images are created this way: Artist divides a piece of paper or an
object into sections. And then, he/she fills these sections with different repetitive patterns, some section he/she leaves
blank. NeoPopRealism drawing is flat. The drawing of NeoPopRealism images is like game, because when you choose the next pattern,
you use your intuition and imagination. It develops the artistic senses, the feelings of the harmony and composition.
NeoPopRealism art style and drawing created by artist Nadia Russ in 1989 and manifested internationally in 2003, when she
created a term 'NeoPopRealism".Recently published book "First
Steps: NeoWhimsies: NeoPopRealism Ink Drawing for Beginners", ISBN: 978-0615641553, is illustrated by Serge E. Mikhailov,
who began to draw in 1998, then he was influenced by Picasso and Matisse. Later, he authored a book on the
self-improvement and imagination and now involved in a few Internet projects that help people develop their imagination and
the drawing skills (http://hohou.com). In 2012, Serge found out
about the NeoPopRealism ink drawing style. He sees it as an unusual art form because using the ornamental patterns
in the drawing is something new to him. He said, "The ornaments - the patterns - carry the extra emotions and information,
the subconscious emotions. This type of drawing is able to hide the inaccuracy and a person can draw without eraser. The NeoPopRealism
ink images look complete... When a person draws, he/she uses the sub-consciousness, trying to connect the different
concepts in his/her mind. The drawing is meditative process (trance). If you would like to know what is on your mind, then
draw!"
This book is a first Serge's book on teaching the beginners how to draw NeoPopRealism ink images. It offers nine artistic projects, which help to develop the artistic skills and imagination. In each project,
the visual step-by-step instructions lead through the drawing process from the beginning to end. NeoPopRealism
ink drawing is meditative, the meditation is the brain-changing activity that increases learning abilities. This
book is for those who would like to learn the basics of NeoPopRealism ink drawing. Free preview soon will be available
at Amazon.com book page. In present time, Serge E. Michailov is involved in several online projects related to the developing
of imagination and artistic skills, including http://hohohu.com and http://fun4child.com .

Barnes & Noble: New Release: Centennial Book by Nadia RUSS "Fort Lauderdale 100"
A
New book "Fort Lauderdale 100: A Must-Have Collector's Edition" by Nadia RUSS is now available from Barnes &
Noble book store with the new release's discount -- 30% OFF! Click HERE to go to the Barnes&Noble store website. Read fragment from the book's Introduction by Nadia RUSS: "Fort Lauderdale is an
amazing city. I discovered Fort Lauderdale for myself in the late 90s, when I came on a cruise ship from the Bahamas. When
I arrived on this land for the first time, the only word I could find was “WOW!” And now, more than ten years
later, I still have this “WOW!” every time I see A1A, or Las Olas, or Sea Breeze Boulevard. During my first visit,
I couldn’t imagine that one day I would live in Fort Lauderdale; it seemed unreal. But it’s mesmerizing, powerful
beauty attracts me again and again. And now, New York City and Fort Lauderdale have almost equal
places in my heart. Someone said that “people can get used to everything.” It is not true, I cannot get used to
the uniqueness and beauty I see in Fort Lauderdale: the amazing tropical plants, fascinating and polished A1A beach with its
Atlantic Ocean, glamorous Las Olas Boulevard with its Isles, bridges and big yachts and homes at every corner, and small shops
and restaurants that give you the feeling of comfort as if you were at home. This year,
the city celebrates its 100 year anniversary. In January, I decided to make a book, dedicated to it, and include in this book
100 photographs of Fort Lauderdale. The photographs you will see here are made on Las Olas Boulevard, A1A, Sea Breeze Boulevard,
Riverwalk, and more. I made hundreds of photographs because the same panoramas I saw daily
were different each time, and I wanted to capture all this changing beauty. The color of the ocean and canal surfaces changed
daily and hourly depending on the sun, sky and wind. Sunsets are different daily, with the reflection on the water and buildings,
windows. There’re also perfect pieces of beauty created by human hands -- yachts and houses..." This
is the first book, published by NeoPopRealism PRESS, which was established in 2011.

Visual Arts & Ethics
Until they breaches force issues into the public eye, the questions of ethics
in the art world receive a little attention. Writers about art have suffered from the fashion called “appropriation”
and it has encouraged the plagiarism. Often, museums exploit curators as writers for hire, and were among the most important
arbitrators of culture in the 20th century. Museums continue to play an important role in the 21st century, they are the repositories
and transmitters of the national values and ideals. Museums have tremendous power and authority in our society, the museums’
artifacts shape the broader culture and the history. Each museum is constantly called upon to make choices, measure its values
and take actions. As
a transformative and force, the role of art will only be realized if art liberates itself from the pressure that corporate
constraints have on determining its future. Artists should ignore economic opportunities to further their ability to work. If art will continue to
function without a clear cultural agenda but according to the agenda of economic globalization, it will lose its significance.
Art expert certifying authenticity, or museum exhibition sponsor shouldn’t be in a position to benefit financially from
the decision that they are in a position to make. Private ownership of the cultural means of production and the sell for profit has become normal practice.
The cultural services and goods are not unique outputs of historical creative talent and genius in America. The only
exceptions were publicly supported libraries and museums. Over the past year, museums have increasingly joined the ranks of the market. And as a result,
the concept of no market controlled work of art or institution is almost extinct. Parallel with private appropriation of symbolic activity has been
the rationalization of artistic production. The distribution capabilities have increased immeasurably the profitability of
cultural production. The
New Tate Modern in London, Guggenheim Museum, DIA’s opened Beacon facility in New York offer prominent examples of new
trend. Their attention is directed to the undeniable impressiveness of the new technologies of message making. The ethical criteria reflects a society whose
social values and norms are in motion, and whose institutions such as universities and museums conform to market pressure. In 20th century, mission of museum as an institution
in the U.S. was predictable. It included the collecting, preserving, and protecting what it contained. Today, this concept
has changed. In the U.S., the museums first supported by wealthy patrons and by private endowments. They have
served as a reminder and celebrant of the established order. For hundred years, aristocracy and church provided the economic
foundation for culture, they brokered and controlled culture. The transformation of the U.S. museums into public relations
agents for the interests of big business and its ideological allies slowly evolved in the 20th century. Corporate supporters are bedrock to nonprofit
organizations. They can afford to give away vast of money for exhibitions that they find relevant. Unfortunately, often, philanthropy
is a smart form of advertising and philanthropists want to see exhibitions that attract viewers and support social tastes
that are not controversial or difficult to comprehend. Many ethical issues confronting art people and art organizations today
because works of art have gained commodity status.
