The next big thing

Are young artists being flogged like Internet stocks in the late 1990s?

A discussion on Edward Winkleman has me wondering about the apparent obsession with youth among today's collectors. Does youth signify limitless potential, the chance to get in on the ground floor, much like venture capitalists? After all, older artists have had a chance to prove themselves and may have reached a sort of stasis.
