Each and everyone is supposed to know what contemporary means, and which signification to emphasize : modern, or fashionable, or just present-time.
For us the contemporary artist never comes out of nowhere. He is the one who takes root in the Art tradition. From the beginning of the human adventure, up to its late developments. The one who tries as honestly as possible to transmute the common heritage into something of his own, something of the present. The one who makes it visible. A contemporary artwork is maybe only a shortcut then. A magic door which opens to the entirety of what human beings should be able to share.
