Lyapis Trubetskoy «Capital»

surrealistic pop-art with a cynical view on world politics created in high energy frames for pop music channels. could the apocalypse be near? tried and tested technologies with deadly
composing and a pint of morphing for good measure.

Your work is very good! This Peel work is not s a big work like yours. But it was more interesting for the specialists... Your work is not art... it is something commercial... hehe I am sorry about the money... about the capital.

The voting in Berlin went according to the terms and conditions and are confirmed as published in the latest news onsite.

Please let me know if you have any other questions. I wanted to thankyou for proposing your work which has been admired by many people who came to the exhibition in Berlin. Kind regards, Steven Music.

Dear Aliaksei, the voting at the final in Berlin between the finalists and the online vote are two separate activities. The first, in Berlin is for the 40,000 euro prize money, the second activity the online vote is purely an open access vote for anyone visiting the website with no prize money!
This has been clearly explained in the pages relating to the terms and conditions of the prize and in the pages 'online vote 2009' (you find both in 'about prize' on the homepage).

Open letter:

Hello Celeste Prize,

I am Alexey Tserakhau, the finalist of the Celeste Prize 2009 with the work `Capital` . I was flabbergasted by the results of the final voting that turned out to be very unpredictable.

In all categories the works that have been taking leading positions during the voting didn't win in the end.
Alexey TEREHOFF
15 years ago
For example, in my category "video and animation" there were two leading works- "Capital" and "LoopLoop". In the on-line voting the first three places were taken by my work "Capital" (www.celesteprize.com/artwork/ido:18405) , "LoopLoop" by Patric Bergeron (www.celesteprize.com/artwork/ido:17921), and third -"The Kiss" by Giueseppe Ragazzini (http://www.celesteprize.com/artwork/ido:26707).

Here is the statistics:

Top favourites: "Capital" - 75", "LoopLoop" - 63, and "Peel" (winner) -28.
Most viewed : "LoopLoop" - 1411, "Capital" - 1251. "Peel" - 640 after the final results.
Alexey TEREHOFF

But, surprisingly, the prize was awarded to the work "Peel" by Surabhi Saraf (www.celesteprize.com/artwork/ido:27351) that have never led in any of the positions such as "favourites", "most viewed", "most talked about" and "league table vote". I am not inferring that this work is not interesting but in consistency with the logic of any competition the first place should have gone to a work that has been in top positions.
Alexey TEREHOFF
15 years ago
I have been following the voting since the very beginning and the battle for the first place has been generally between two works "LoopLoop" and "Capital". And I would agree if "LoopLoop" or my work "Capital" won.
I believe, winners shouldn't be random or accidental contrary to what happened here.

The next important aspect is money. I paid 50 Euros to take part in this competition and I have the right to disagree with the results. I understand that anybody should be happy to get into the first 10, but in this case we were competing for money which is 8000 euros. When money is involved and things happening ageist the logic there is always a question : "How could this happen?"
More or less the same happened in other categories.
Alexey TEREHOFF
15 years ago
I completely disagree with the results, where 8000 euros went to the work that has never pretended on the first place.

Ideally, i would like this decision to be reconsidered or at least I would like to receive some commentaries from the organisers of the Celeste Prize.
I am also encouraging other artists to express their views on the final results.

thank you

Motion graphics don't get much better than this. The artistry is fantastic, the timing is genius, the perspective and layering are spot on - and you've sourced some beautiful images. A cogent and alluring piece of work. I just wish the song was better! I wish you the very best of luck. You get my vote.

Lyrics translation:

CAPITAL
I eat gold bricks for lunch,
Diamond dessert, oil cream.
My name is Velzevool - the master of stratosphere,
I am unbelievably cool and commonly respected.

Refrain:
In my left hand - a Snikers, in my right hand - a Mars.
My PR manager is Karl Marx.
In my left hand - a Snikers, in my right hand - a Mars.
My PR manager is Karl Marx.
Capital! Capital! Capital! Capital!
Alexey TEREHOFF

I eat cities and drink seas,
My beard covers up the sky,
Thunder and lightnings, fogs and rains.
Ministers and chiefs lick my boots.

Refrain:
In my left hand - a Snikers, in my right hand - a Mars.
My PR manager is Karl Marx.
In my left hand - a Snikers, in my right hand - a Mars.
My PR manager is Karl Marx.
Capital! Capital! Capital! Capital!

My face is Madonna, all filled with rotten pears.
All kneel! The orchestra play flourish!
Capital! Capital! Capital! Capital!
