"breaking" givens in a piece of art or school of thought

JB: An important way to think about art is that a work assumes certain things and is explicit about certain things. 

This makes me think, in relation to breaking, about how to tamper with the borders between tacit and explicit is an important source of innovation, and, Steph suggested during our session, of uncovering un-noticed/submerged traditions.
