Partially, I guess? The celebrated ones tend to be the ones to suit a taste the audience didn't know they had - especially today when we've seen incredible virtuosos of just about anything, so "different" is the only thing people haven't seen before. But surely there are artists who are more or less successful with more conventional work.
