Anonymous users2024-02-06Postmodernism is an artistic, socio-cultural, and philosophical trend that took place in Europe and the United States in the 60s and became popular in the West in the 70s and 80s. It aims at abandoning the basic premises of modernity and its normative content. In postmodernist art, this renunciation is manifested in the rejection of modernist art as an autonomous value that divides the cultural field, and the rejection of modernism's formal and partisan principles.
Its essence is an intellectual anti-rationalism, moral cynicism, and emotional hedonism.
If you are interested, you can take a look at this post, the introduction is very comprehensive, a bit long.

Anonymous users2024-02-05The term postmodernism first appeared in the architectural world, opposing the singleness and rigidity of a certain aspect of modern architecture, and pursuing the pluralistic expression and complexity of architectural culture.
In general, postmodernism does not touch the roots of modernism, and its critical level only stays at the architectural form, while ignoring the deep social factors behind the architecture. So in the 70-80s of the 20th century, it was popular for a while and then gradually died out.
Charles, an architectural theorist who once declared modernism dead. Once again, Jenks declares that postmodernism died at the same time as the collapse of the World Trade Center.

Professor Derek of Duke University in the United States has a related exposition in "Postmodernism and Chinese History", I hope it will be helpful to you.
Personally, I think printed things are more intimate to read, hehe.

Anonymous users2024-01-31Postmodernism is an ever-changing concept.
Postmodernism is not an ideology, but a "state".
The state of postmodernism permeates all aspects of contemporary society.
Postmodernism must be "after" modernity, so what is modernism? Modernism is the ultimate and best way. The prescriptive characteristics of modernity are:
1) overriding faith and trust in science and technology;
2) Promote the positive effects of technology;
3) The belief that development is inevitable and the result of the hope of modern thinking.
Postmodernism, on the other hand, is a skepticism of the modernist landscape, and at its most extreme is the rejection of modernity altogether. If modernism is a search for eternal truths, then postmodernism is a skepticism of these eternal truths, and if modernism is a search for a clear representation of knowledge, then postmodernism holds that "the state of knowledge changes as society enters the post-industrial era and culture enters the postmodern age."
So, so to speak, postmodernism:
1) Pluralism of faith;
2) a multifaceted examination of the effects of the technology;
3) Examine whether development is always inevitable, resulting in a serious proposition. If you look at it by other criteria, "technological development" may not be development at all.
To put it simply: postmodernism doesn't look at things very simply, it thinks that simple technological progress is likely to have long-term malignant effects, as told in many American blockbusters, similar to humans making extremely advanced robots, and in the end robots want to destroy humans, and so on.

"Postmodern" is one of the words that appear more frequently in the current art world. "Postmodern" has come to this world and has become an indisputable fact in our art world. The question now is how we should understand and how we should treat the "postmodern".
See references for details.
1. Pay attention to humanization and liberalization.
Postmodernism is a rebellion against the pure rationality and functionalism of modernism, emphasizing the human-centered design principles in the design of the postmodern style, emphasizing the dominance of man in technology, and paying more attention to humanization and liberalization. >>>More
Postmodernism is a concept that is difficult to accurately conclude theoretically, and the main theorists of postmodernity are opposed to defining or regulating its doctrine in various conventional forms. At present, in many fields such as architecture, literary criticism, psychoanalysis, law, education, sociology, and political science, Yuanyan has put forward a self-contained exposition on the current postmodern situation. >>>More
1. Emphasize tradition and historicism.
Now we can say that there are many different understandings of tradition, which has led to different styles of postmodernist architects, and by tradition we mean not only the basic characteristics of traditional architecture, but also the abstract and individualized symbols of traditional architecture. On the other hand, some Japanese architects interpret the traditional risui as something that has a special character in the national culture, so they tend to grasp it from the spirit of traditional culture. Theoretically, postmodernism has a tendency to gradually introduce historicism. >>>More
What is the definition of postmodernism?
If you want to ask about the definition of postmodernism, it means that you don't know enough about postmodernism. Because postmodernism is only a reaction to various modern phenomena, it is difficult to come up with a specific definition, because the essence of this doctrine does not allow people to have a specific and clear definition. Roughly speaking, there are some important features as follows: 1 >>>More
The Westernization Movement was the beginning of modernization and opened the way for China's modernization. >>>More
