    We are kinda floating around in terms of a movement right now. The world is too big and diverse to define something these days. There's a push with a lot of the younger generation in Assemblage/Found Object Art. New Media Art has been on the verge of becoming something that has legs, but hasn't quite got off the ground yet in being legit "art". Bigger and bigger seems to be better. I feel like the 80's explored a lot of new ideas in Pop and Abstraction, pushed some significant boundaries on sexuality, defined some new mediums like Graffiti as Art, and pushed conceptualism and anti-art in a lot of ways. I see a lot of rehashed ideas these days... some are very clever, but rarely push things ahead.
