In this sense I am an optimist. I think the "consumer boom" to society is only a deviation of "transition age" and not malignant disease. "Satiety" is still a novelty, comfort has not yet become a habitual norm. Will not have much time, and will weaken the lure of things, even supernova. The spiritual needs of the highest standard will be vital the need of the majority. This optimism is not based on the learned truths on the facts of reality. Them are soaked in ten turns "on Mona Lisa", in failed attempts to get to the Symphony concert, in Sunday crowded protected areas. How many in this crowded young and very young, literally green! Speaking of mass visits museums. A few years ago in the press was heard alarmed voices "true connoisseurs" - do not damage "invasion unenlightened" safety temples of art? And whether all these nepodporovany the tourists to wander through the halls of the Hermitage Museum among paintings in which they "see a lot"? Peterhof - Yes, there is at least stomp on the tracks, but not unique the parquet... "Untrained sightseers" is, among other children! No, not we're supposed to agree with the strict Great Argus guarding the temples from the "unenlightened masses". Let your visit to the Hermitage for some only a tribute to fashion. Long live this fashion, and let our children take over! Let in the Hermitage't stomp and don't make any noise, but we must not hesitate to go there, though and not all of it understand. Safety flooring will provide the care business executives and restorers, and they will think about how to teach our children to concert halls, exhibitions, museums and travel. And when the question arises: to resolve or not to allow, to give or not to give the C student Peto or even neuspevaju stake ten to fifteen rubles on a trip with school in a multi-day excursion, it is better to allow and give. If, of course, it will not be too inconsistent with Patinum or Kalinin behavior. In any case should not be on the model of highbrow aesthetes to refer to the fact that many whether he (Peter Kohl) in the paintings and statues understands. Something will see, something will feel, and this "something" expensive worth it.
