Subject: When is traditional.... avant-garde?


When everyone is looking to the newest technique, or the following the
vogue or whats in vogue, who's not to say that the man who looks back and
works in what would be considered ultra-traditional to be avant-garde.

Perhaps it is the reconditioning of the process that makes it avant garde.
Its necessary for avant garde - forward thinking to have a social
responsibility. That is - not to be elitist and therefore tyrannical.
