Avant Garde, aväntˈɡärd
“The avant-garde (from French, “advance guard” or “vanguard”, literally “fore-guard”) are people or works that are experimental or innovative, particularly with respect to art, culture, and politics.” [Wikipedia]
From the beginning, Steampunk has always been defined by two qualities: Bleeding-edge ideas and a do-it-yourself ethic. Steampunk was so ahead of its time, that the genre didn’t receive its formal name until 1987 | over 100 years after the first works were released into the world.
Steampunk Art Magazine continues the Steampunk tradition by not being traditional.
