This is because her work was advanced for her time. No one wants to appreciates change and new ideas in fear of also being in the minority. Our generation needs to run with new ideas and change because if we don't then we will fall into the same tendencies

"Itten described the goal of artistic practice as the attainment of a spiritual experience..." (Otto and Rossler).
