I think that painting could cease to progress in terms of style and type and， without these notions， cease to have distinctive qualities or symbols.Painting could also experience constant formal renewal， revealing new signs and allowing completely free expression. It could even become
a mediocre art form， lacking in creativity and destined to failure. Of course， the ultimate goal is to make it more provocative. Painting should actually challenge the established paradigms; it should put to the test what perception renders stiff and systematic， the “good manners” and “good taste” of those pictures hung in living rooms and exhibits.
