As I said, they're not entirely definied, it's more of a very wide and vague movement to a different sensibility and way of thinking, away from the aggression and big statements of the avantgarde. It's not just something in visual arts, I see it in other art forms, but anyway I have mentioned a more specific change here >>14314505 (movement of younger artists back towards realism) and posted some pics that I liked >>14314837 and below that. This is not a clear-cut shift, and I don't see it easily taking hold in USA culture right now for multiple reasons (paralysing obsession with politics, raging capitalism, bad education, and cultural rootlessness and myopia), but I do think it exists, elsewhere at least. (But maybe US isn't that bad in reality and I built this picture off possibly exaggerated complaining that I read on 4chan and news.) Look at places that media doesn't tell you to look at, basically. Everyday artistic practice needs a normal, functioning body (mechanism), that the avantgarde never truly dissolved (though it did affect it in interesting ways).
