    Hi David, thank you for tuning in and for your interesting comment. I would like to answer with a question: what defines a pioneer? Or what defines being innovative? Further, and in my opinion a much more pertinent question, does art still needs to be innovative, or rather 'brand new' and 'ground breaking' in today's era? I believe this pretext is a lingering conviction from modernist thinking, in which men believed in the (teleological) progress of society, and in arts. Reichert is surely innovative having developed a very unique process, but so is the process of Aron Barath, albeit in a less obvious manner. Food for thought for sure! All my best, JD

If other artists follow your tracks, you may be a pioneer and history of art should do the rest. Anyway I don't think that being brand new is the ultimate criteria of value. The risk is to go too far without meaning. I repeat that I really appreciate your selection. Being sincere and coherent are more important to me. Innovation is a bonus.

Of course glazes have been around for millennia and people have written on this subject to good effect if not much listening going on. Carpets and wallpaper and wood grain have performed similar functions and for thousands of years so who is playing catch-up? There is no abstraction in the universe anyway, it's a hackneyed phrase.

Thank you for the suggestion, will definitely have a look, a new name to discover. Yes, a very interesting suggestion. For sure a topic to create a video for or an article. A short answer how we 'discover' artists is most often by visiting fairs, exhibitions, reading magazines, recommendations by other people whose opinion I value in the art world or simply by browsing on instagram. Then, we have a very thorough look on the artist's resume, works and profile before contacting the artist.

    Take a look at Duncan Jago UK Born 1972. Represented by The Unit Gallery, London. A abstracted kaleidoscope of colour. His work progresses at a phenomenal rate with every new body of work. The paintings by Mr. (Duncan) Jago are like hurricanes of color and brushstrokes. His artistic career began with his intense interest in graffiti art, which led him to study illustration in Bristol. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Mr. Jago’s works have progressively developed toward abstraction, losing any reference to the form. Instead, he employs both acrylic and spray paint on large canvases to render nonrepresentational scenes that give the impression of staring into space and being able to see the entire light spectrum. With vibrant colors saturating drips, bursts, and evocative strokes, Mr. Jago elevates his materials beyond the grass roots aesthetic associated with street art.

    I love modern / abstract art but what I hate is elitism and let's be honest, it plays a huge role in the current art world. I know all these artists from Instagram and many of them are not especially original or better than others doing very similar artworks. They just got lucky as some gallery / curator picked them. Johny Abrahams - nice but absolutely generic abstract art - these shapes and compositions are done to death. You will find tons of practically identical artworks all around the internet, why is he represented by top galleries and others not? Luck. Not the quality of the art itself. Aron Brath - Another quite generic artwork, yeah, he use very bold gradients but that's all about it, go to any art school exhibition and someone is doing same stuff there, for years. Kathryn MacNaughton - Definitely best of the bunch, I know many very similar artists / illustrators who do this but her stuff is very nice. Maya Makino - this is what I hate about modern art - the technique and story are actually more interesting than the result itself, nothing great, and it lacks depth. Marco Reichert - Good, it is original and has a distinctive and interesting presence. Franziska - nice one-time project, but as a standalone art? No, really, stop this... It is like a joke that is funny once but repeating it ruins it. Van Steedman - nope. This is ridiculous. Dung Vu - Interesting, but.... it really is not THAT good, it gets boring after watching a few, and all the pieces look practically the same. Another one hit wonder.

However the intent of your comment here, I can't disagree with at all, especially the "elitism" element. When I saw graphs analyzing "trends" in this video all I could think was that this is the opposite of what art should be and it's people looking at art in a cold monetary way that seem to dictate what is popular and what isn't. Reichert and MacNaughton are the 2 stand out artists in this shortlist for me.

    Take a journey of discovery and try and find out the motivations of the first "contemporary" artists. But first, try and ascertain just who that or whom those people are. Then, read up on their lives. The earliest were searchers, and most suffered intensely. Their work, often ugly, was a manifestation of what was going on inside them; always so, no matter who or what you create. But there is great debate on just when contemporary art came to be. Music is the same. But you cannot take away some of the thrill of knowing there was intense risk in doing what they did in many cases. What do these 8 young turks risk? Nothing. Contemporary art is a dead end and other than for investing in, which to my mind is like loading up on tulip bulbs, pointless and uninspired. I am an artist. I have a very wealthy aunt in Florida who owns a museum quality collection of art. Truly, it's breadth and scope and volume would amaze you. Some of it is beautiful. Much of it is ugly and pointless. Some of it literally looks like a middle finger to the viewer. All priceless. Not to me, I certainly have a price in mind for much of the "collection".... The point is this: MOST of the avante garde wing of contemporary art is intimately personal and timely to a specific period of culture. Most of the mainstay contemporary art is as memorable as those prints that adorn every wall in every office. Before I weight in on an artist who plays around in the abstract, I like to see how they did with a still life. This artwork is ugly and not at all memorable. These artists risk nothing and are being marketed like so much pop-music on KZread. Fools rush in.

    There's a deep cynicism to your perspective, like art you don't find interesting/engaging can't be. Being highly dogmatic, with poor consideration of varying perspectives, renders you highly inflexible. Art-historically those types of figures tend to be on the wrong end of jokes years and generations later because art always proves them wrong. "Contemporary art is a dead end" - for what? And be specific: contemporary art is a massive umbrella term. What is the telos here for you? Why are you conflating beauty=meaningful, and ugly=pointless? You seem to be doing this in the second paragraph, which is particularly casual taste for someone painting themselves to be anything but. How do you know Barath's work - for example - isn't intimately personal and captures some amount of the current cluster zeitgeist? What does risk mean to you? Political/social risk? Financial risk? Risk of failure? How much of this work have you actually been in the presence of? Are you judging physical paintings - in a physical space, with local lighting, potentially with the artist present for input - based on KZread resolution digital imagery? That's like 'attending' a wedding through a digital 10,000 zoom telescope. That's reducing artwork and experience to image - an insult to critical engagement. Your perspective seems to reek of gatekeeping for the sake of ushering in those who think specifically like you.

    Minimalism works in literature and more complex mediums like cinema(Beckett,Kiarostami) but it doesn't work in music and painting. Because they are already very limited in what they can express. With language you can abstract and at the same time have very dense meanings. Which is also a sample of high craftsmanship. In painting, "I can't understand" how they take seriously something that could have been painted by a ten year old.

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. (!) I don't see where the words "important" or "innovative" apply anymore. I certainly wouldn't try to build a body of work around it for any reason other than an easy way to put food on the table for the family, but I wouldn't consider myself an artist anymore.

    I particularly like the 6th and 7th artists. I am also very interested in creating abstract artwork, and I have made some in the past. However, currently, I am creating representational pieces. After watching your helpful video "6 Steps To Success as a Self-Taught Artist," I am now reading some art books and simultaneously experimenting and exploring to find my own original art style. I am particularly interested in three styles: representational, abstract, and surrealism. However, I believe that narrowing down to one style would allow me to deepen my own art and make it more easily recognizable to others. Nevertheless, it is not necessary to confine myself to just one style. Once I have established one style sufficiently, I may explore and deepen other styles as well. For me, representational art serves as a means to express "life and emotions," abstract art showcases the "fascination of new artistic expressions," and surrealism is connected to representational art but further develops the expression of life and emotions. Perhaps, for me, representational and surrealism are almost the same. In broader terms, it can be divided into representational and abstract, but to successfully connect the two, it may be beneficial to have a shared underlying motivation or theme of "why I create art," which could be the same for both types of artwork as an expression of who I am as a person. I apologize for the lengthy response, but I wanted to share my thoughts. I would be grateful if you could read and consider them.
