Kurtiss asked on his blog:
Does increased knowledge of a topic, such as art, close off any ability to find future gratitude in the subject?
I do not believe that this is true, at least not for all people. Some people believe that because they know so much about a subject, when a new idea comes along, they are unable and/or unwilling to accept or understand it. These people are very closed-minded about these things, and do not understand that the world is ever changing and evolving, and in order to keep up so do people's ideas and beliefs. However, there are also those that even though they are already very knowledgeable in their field, are always open and welcome to new ideas. The human mind is very curious, and new ideas peak our interest all the time. It is just the fact we have to get past those who are unwilling to change.
Is it the ideas of the old or the new that determine what is art?
