John Elderfield, senior curator at the Museum of Modern Art has remarked that "the true subject of art history is the narrative and analysis of the succession of innovations that have changed the practice of artists over the course of time."
Do you agree with this statement? If you do, give an example of evidence to support his claim.
If you do not agree, state why.

Frogs and Snails and Fine Art Tales
Captain's Log. Stardate 2009 May 18
Today we embark on our journey together to explore old masters, young genius, art, and economics.
As to our name of our blog. Well, we wanted chiraoscuro first. But, that term -- denoting the light and dark within a work of art -- was taken. Then, we moved to our second choice, spanghew which means "to cause a frog or toad to fly in the air." That, too, was taken. Therefore, we improvised and added "-ed" to spanghew, because every good word deserves to be in the past tense.
