In 1907, Braque and Picasso met and formed an intellectual and creative partnership to overturn the art of the 19th century. They took inspiration from certain existing artists and traditions — from what was in the air at the time — but then jumped off from that determined to shatter existing notions of representation. They succeeded and set twentieth century art in a completely new direction.
This seems the right attitude to adopt wherever: it’s high time to employ tech to bury the assumptions, conceits, and trends of the last century.
