What is modern Art

What is modern is a foremost question for every modernism. Did Andy Warhol's depiction of a soup already became outdated? Is Damien Hirst remains Young British Artist or he should be deemed mid-age successful businessman for whom new art has lesser importance than his old bank account? Could all this art be lost in a timeflow? In decades of newer art, could this disappear completely? Everything is possible, who knows what technology and science will make to human society and development of human brain. Perhaps science could make almost everyone genius, than, what importance of something what was done in the past compared to something what could be made in the future or now. Withstand time is a most complicated task for an art, no, perhaps not only for art. Nothing is really eternal, even the Pyramids in Egypt have some limits of acceptance. With the new technology people could build more impressive things. But do they have desire?

There is always something new just around the corner. And art, it can't resist for some novelty every year. Even Picasso when he became old, he saw the rise of the new, and his own art became something of the past.
