  1. Post Modernism of Art Laura Boyd Sam Irwin Danny Paquette Steve Romano

  2. Modern Art • Artists who produced modern art tried to create art that was "pure" • This meant the artforms portrayed held stylistic integrity. • The Postmodern Era started after the 'death' of modern art in the mid-1960s Unknown. Beautiful Pure Girl. n.d.

  3. Transformation to Postmodern Art • Postmodern art attempted to stray away from a completely pure artform. • Reacting to the modernist view on "pure" pieces of artwork, artists began to create master-pieces integrating many different materials and styles

  4. Entering the Postmodern Era... - Visual Art had many different styles associated with it, including Pattern Painting and Super-Realism - Various types of newmedia began to be used - By the late 1960s, magazines had replaced modernistic artworks with the new forms of art

  5. Reaction vs. Resistance Hal Foster argued that many of postmodern artworks are either a reaction to past art styles that become recycled in new forms of art. Another type is resistance to some sort of political issue or other controversial topics. Daniel Durant, Unknown. 2011

  6. Few Characteristicsof Postmodern Art Site-Specificity - the construction of various environments and sites that embed works within a defined context Impermanence - the construction of works from perishable items Accumulation - making various fragments of the construction of art, having them become part of a series Discursivity - allowing an interaction between the sensuous making the silent artwork articulate and argumentative. Hybridisation - Using two different forms of artwork to create singularly inclusive constructions

  7. Postmodern Art Styles/Trends Some typical styles/trends of art in the postmodern era include –Bricolage (creation of a work from a collection of objects) – Collage – Appropriation (taking pre-existing objects or images and changing them in small ways) – Performance art Tsevis, Charis. Steve Jobs for Fortune Magazine. Photograph. Cupertino, California, US. Flickr. 5 Mar. 2008.

  8. Collage - First beginning in 200 BC China, it made a reappearance in the 20th century by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. - The term collage comes from the French "coller" meaning "glue". - A collage typically include newspaper clippings, color scraps, parts of other artwork, photographs, and any other object that will fit. Schoeller, Martin. TIME's 2010 Person of the Year

  9. Collage Types Photomontage is when an artist takes parts of different photos and combine them into one. Decoupage (craft) is the process of placing a picture into an object for decoration.

  13. Color Photography -William Eggleston (1939-Present) • Before William, photography was a large art style but only black and white photos were an accepted form of photography. • Eggleston's work was called "common" and "pedestrian" by the art world. • His work eventually made color photography accepted as an art form. • His work is now seen around the world and featured on many different album covers.

  28. Kim Levin on Postmodern Art "Post-modernism is impure. It knows about shortages. It knows about inflation and devaluation. It is aware of the increased cost of objects. And so it quotes, scavenges, ransacks, recycles the past. It is style-free and free-style. Playful and full of doubt, it denies nothing. Tolerant of ambiguity, contradiction, complexity, incoherence, it is eccentrically inclusive. It mimics life, accepts awkwardness and crudity, takes an amateur stance. Structured by time rather than form, concerned with context instead of style, it uses memory, research confession, fiction - with irony whimsy and disbelief. Subjective and intimate, it blurs the boundaries between the world and self. It is about identity and behaviour." - Levin, Beyond Modernism: Essays on Art From the '70s and '80s
