There was a time when many railed against
traditionalism in art and proclaimed themselves the "avant garde." They, however, have lost claim to the title as the avant garde can no longer be avant garde if everybody is doing it. It is the traditionalist who has become the "new avant garde." It is the traditionalist who must rage against the machine. Vive la difference!
Let Gopnik go play with Hockney and watch them fade into history never to be seen, or heard from, again - except maybe as a "See how ridiculous things got... the emperor had no clothes" footnote in a future art history class.
