In art discovery is not enough.

Pioneering in a new idiom, with new

material, even with a new aesthetic (or
a non-aesthetic) does not make it art, it
makes it pioneering.
From p. 111, paragraph 1, begins line 6, The Morphology of
Movement, in The Nature and Art of Motion, Gyorgy Kepes,
ed. (NY: Braziller, 1965), 81-114.
