Well... maybe not here in Asia. The only time they will be introduced to western historical figures is in their design history class, of which there are likely to be no more that two. They would certainly never hear it at high school. Also, wherever they come from, young people nowadays tend to jump straight into Pinterest, Deviant Art etc. These collections are not curated, and are, to them, little more that images without context. They may have seen MG's work in this manner, but would be unlikely to know his name. This is very different to when I was at school. Browsing a library is a very different experience to browsing the web.
