Two Russian immigrants, Komar and Melamid, conducted a poll in 1995 to determine aspects of the most and least wanted art, which they then created for 13 different countries. On the top, we the least desired painting for the United States; below that, we see the ideal American painting, according to their survey. The idea of conducting a survey about art makes sense, given the tendency of artists toward kitsch and arts becoming closely intertwined with and responsive to the market.
