terms like Visionary, Psychedelic, Abstract and Surreal, when applied to any art will provide a host of strong works that really are the pinnacle of technical and memetic acumen. There's a lot more of this than you might think; I'm surprised with how much there is and often find new artists all the time with incredible works.

All ideas are cyclical, they come and go. What was one revolutionary in the past is no longer the same today. All things change in a dynamic environment. I feel it's best to appreciate and share artworks, regardless of the medium, that radiate the strongest ideas, values and semblances.

Example: while the shock value of surrealism and dada might not be relevant anymore, the writings, movies and the manifesto itself still hold water. I'm curious what present day film makers, not the critics, would think of Luis Bunuel. Whether we see direct causal links or not, for how ideas progress forward, such things have immense influence and the potential for them to influence is greater today with the internet.
