"movement Z is a reaction to Y, which in turn is a reaction to X. The artist is grappling with themes A and B, and exploring materials C, D, and E."
I don't want to see reactions. I don't want to see an artist grappling with themes. I don't want to see an artist exploring new materials.
I want to see a master displaying his work that exemplifies concrete themes and ideas. In other words, I would like to see defined, finished works as opposed to ambiguous, ill refined quasi-ideas.
Maybe that's just me.
