    The term avant-garde is typically used for things that are new and groundbreaking. According to Wikipedia, it literally means "vanguard", "advance guard", or "front guard".

    French: Avant-Garde is commonly used in both English and French to refer to people or works (art for example) that are experimental or unique. This term is used in particular when a person is talking about art, architecture, culture, and even politics.
