Action for the Ecology of Culture

Action for the Ecology of Culture is a 1art.com and ArtPapa.com campaign for the revival of the forgotten knowledge and skills, for bringing back the preeminence of craftsmanship unduly neglected in the art of painting, thereby attracting the public's attention to the current imbalance in our cultural life.
Why do we, quite fairly, worry about the environment, about forests and rivers, about quality of food and natural resources, while the spiritual environment of man has been left to take care of itself? Why do museums that we visit with our children are full of "works of art" created for the sake of destruction and ugliness? You may say that Satanism is also religion and as such has the right to exist in the epoch of democracy. Perhaps, but everybody knows what that means and tries to explain that to their children, because democracy cannot ban it yet.

That's why, with all our sense of humor, let's look at political correctness a little more seriously than usually. Is political correctness always good? Is it the result of the pink glasses that were forced on us and we now feel it dangerous to take them off?

The Action for the Ecology of Culture gives you an opportunity to discuss the future of our children, maybe not too loudly, to avoid retaliation.

In a whisper: It is not a secret that most art colleges are subject to the dominance of some "contemporary art" that does not require taking any traditional disciplines by the deceived students. The professor's personal view on art education is the law for the unfortunate student who is deprived of the right of choice. Wouldn't you agree that this reminds of the stone age and does not have anything to do with democracy so much shouted about by the avant-gardists.

Wait, wait!

Does it look as if we decided to ban avant-gardism?
Not at all, it would be historically unnatural and would give a controversial implication to everything that we say.

On the contrary! Dear opponents, the fact that you contribute to the global destruction and decay of culture does not devalue you as members of society. Conversely, it turns you into active participants of the spiritual process. "Unity in struggle." as one of the great said.

Thus, avant-gardists, abstractionists, and other -ists, are invited to participate on the same conditions and with the same rights as the supporters. Action for the Ecology must be fair and diverse. The only conditions for all future authors are intelligence and a sense of humor that leaves no place for rudeness.

It's for our children to see who will last till the 22nd century.
