Post modernism

POST MODERNISM is a general and wide ranging term which is applies in art, literature, philosophy and other cultural parts. It is a reaction to the thoughts of humanity on reality- it is explaining what the world is really like a giving people a different view on world and how it functions. Post modernism is what our minds think the world is about, mostly in bad ways - how destructive it is to the society and how much it affects the way we think and the way we all progress in life.



POST MODERNISM IN FASHION ALEXANDER McQUEEN
Fashion is a very subjective topic. It is what people use to express their style, the way they are, their personality, their views, their likes and dislikes. It all depends on what you feel like and what you, yourself want to represent. Postmodernism is linked to fashion through the way people express their views in for example politics or different campaigns which could be against fur.



POST MODERNISM IN MEDIA EASY A
The distinction between reality and media has collapsed, and we now live in a “reality” defined by images and representations. Anything can be art, anything can deserve to reach an audience, and culture “eats itself” as there is no longer anything new to produce or distribute. Contemporary movies expressing modern views on history like “Easy A” a modernistic expression of “Scarlett Letter”. Everybody has different views on everything and this movie shows how different everyone is and easily we judge people by the simple things. Post modernism is quite closely linked to the way the movie was created, due to expressing people’s thoughts on culture and literature.



POST MODERNISM IN ARCHITECTURE THE SWAN AND DOLPHIN HOTEL IN DISNEY WORLD
Combining new ideas with traditional forms, postmodernist buildings may startle, surprise, and even amuse. Familiar shapes and details are used in unexpected ways. Buildings may incorporate symbols to make a statement or simply to delight the viewer. Throughout architecture the artist can express a lot of politic views through materials and style of the building they choose.



POST MODERNISM IN INTERIOR ETTORE SOTTSASS
Sottsass was making a political statement. They attempted to break down the barriers between high class and low class. To some, this concept was alien but to others it offered freedom. Sottsass thought that art is all about being individual and having your own, also being able to express it in your own way without being rational. He liked the idea of having a simple objects and making it abstract and showing culture through it.
