A gallery manager added:

“They may be big names in the Soviet Union, but on the world scene they are unknown, even if they are good and deserve more recognition. They say their paintings are worth a great deal of money, but there is no real market for Soviet art.”

The artists were concerned about the fact that their need for cash meant they had to produce and sell more than they had in the Soviet Union.

“It takes me a long time to complete a painting, sometimes a few years. You can get poor in America that way.”

“Here you can have what you want but you have to work hard. In Russia, you could live off a painting for several months. Here, you can’t live off it for one month.”

“There is more security in the Soviet Union. Now you get a studio and an income whether you exhibit or not, if you belong to the Union.”

“I see now that America is good for big artists.”
