Lecture 10
Post - Modernism
After the lecture, what does post - modernism mean to me?
- there is a definite shift from modernism to post, which can be distinguished as a reaction to world war 1
- Complexity
- parody, pastiche and irony
- chaos
- post - modernism questions conventions
- using previous historical art styles in their own post-modern work, not necessarily a response
- questioning old limitations
this lecture cleaned alot more up than i hoped, it explained the way it differs from modernism and i really understood this movement, the complexity, and the chaos, you can see it everywhere. my favourite example is the Beijing Olympic stadium, a very post modernistic building.
it cleared up how confused I was about modernism:
- simplified ideas
- utopian ideals
- simple materials
