It’s French and means pushing the boundaries. i.e. new innovative art – art that is new and hasn’t been done before.

Avant-garde is something so new and different that it goes beyond (is ahead of) the normal practices or standards. Literally it means the advance guard, and the sense of it is something which is breaking new ground where others will follow. It is most frequently used to describe a new movement or practice in the arts.
