NEW ART FORMS:
What new style, new subject, or new invention in art can I think of?
What new style, new subject, or new invention in art can I think of?
With new advancements in technology, the continual progress in internet, smart phones, digital anything provides continual opportunities in artist's choices for mediums. My first answer to this question was, "Absolutely not. There are no new art styles." My belief nature itself is art, there is nothing more primitive more complex than nature itself. Art is everything creative, which is life, therefore everything has been done and nothing has been completed until the end of the world. I know this sounds a bit too poetic and dramatic, yet it is what I believe.
Okay, so having said that, are there new styles? I must admit, yes. Yes, there are going to be evolving technological advances - even new materials and product development - which will enable artists to continue to find new mediums. I think of Lady Gaga whom reinvents the old into a new fashion statement. Yet, I wouldn't doubt if there were a brand new polymer or something of the sort, she may choose to incorporate the material into a new outfit.
I also read on the wall today outside of the Biology department how a new fern was discovered. A new fern! Even nature continues to be discovered. And if I had to declare a new art form, it would be this fern.

So I think I would change the way I answer the question.
I would say, as new discoveries are made, new mediums are provided and yes, there are and will be new art styles and forms.
