Post-Modern Art

There are two forms of Post-Modern art: Street and Gallery.

Street art is believed to have been the origin of Post-Modern art, with many controversial artists such as Banksy and Shepard Fairey, whose street artworks have sprouted many mixed opinions and helped create awareness for many causes across the world, leading them to become the underdogs of the art world.

 

A problem with street art is the understanding between what is street art and what is graffiti. Many self-proclaimed street artists are taggers; people who spread their name and art without meaning. Since street art is mainly a non-profitable art form, there are many grey areas that separate an artist from a tagger.

Post-Modern Gallery art is a disgusting attempt to create a sense of individualism through cheap and ill-placed design - throwing out all of the rules and fundamentals of good design out the window in replace of finding the "Next Best Thing", thus gaining lots of money and fame for minimum effort. This art is often found to be displaying some sexualised act or portrays some form of abuse or cruelty.

Post-modern art is also now blurring the lines between art and commercial design, as webdesignerdepot.com states, "Good Art is a talent. Good Design is a skill".

As post-modern art has developed, the less inspirational and meaningful it has become. Post modern art has since become:

quantity over quality.
