Nowadays, contemporary art means to be more contemporary than modern. Because even nutty theories on visual art know that now will be yesterday tomorrow, we therefore need a more modern word for being contemporary: we are postmoderns. Advanced artworks are made recently, but are labelled tomorow's art because futurism is now very old.

Assuming that newer-is-better, art of the future must be not less than the quintessential nutty art.
"It was very disappointing for me finding what art world is, which is basically a business."
Dan Witz
Given that newer-is-better is an old and dusty point of view, why not turning to older-is-better for a more trendy taste? Ernst Gombrich has a book for you (The Preference for the Primitive).
Art desire and artistic identity exist on a continuum, spilling over the neat labels we create to contain them. The two models paint rather different pictures of life.
