Double post: What makes art evolve ? - BFMA Seeks Volunteers

What makes art evolve ?
"If you were to look at the art being produced locally in the 70's to the art being produce now , would you agree that it has evolved and why, what would you say has caused it ? I think people would question , well what do we have as reference that we can use to compare....Looking at The Art of Brownsville blog, and looking at all the art that has been submitted or that it has captured along the way on post within the last 6years, think about the future perhaps 10 years or 20 years from now locally speaking of course, question does art have the potential to evolve ?
I certainly think so..but what we do now must make a difference, we certainly can't disregard our art as meaningless. " gt
