 Post   = After

 Modern=    New/Now/Present Day
   Before we consider Postmodernism we first need
    to define Modernism.

   Modernism, in its broadest definition, is modern
    thought, character or practice.

   It appeared in the late nineteenth and early
    twentieth century.

   The term modernism covers the activities and
    the ideas of those who felt “traditional” forms of
    art (architecture, literature, religious faith,
    social organization and daily life) were becoming
    outdated.
 The intention of modernist‟s was to “make it
  new”.
 Modernism sees the past as different to the
  modern age.
 Modernism was a recognition that the world
  was becoming more complex and that the old
  “final authorities” were subject to intense
  scrutiny.
 - was a new way of thinking
 - rejected perfection
 -challenged expected ideas about God and
  Science.
 -was separate to the past
 Post modern artists took parts of the classical
  and the parts of the modern and called it
  „Postmodernism‟
 There are many forms of Postmodernism and
  many different Postmodern characteristics.
 At its most basic postmodernism applies to the
  ways which new texts are constructed by making
  references to „borrowing‟.
