Want to waste an hour? Why not visit the V&A's Postmodernism; Style & Subversion 1970-1990 ?
Shyte and Derivation more like it.
Did you know that the fashion mag The Face was part of the postmodern "movement"? I doubt if the editor did either.
The whole thing is a teleological conceit where the curator has taken the attitude that "it's postmodernism if I say it is".
Basically, they have cobbled together a pile of unrelated (usually trendy) crap and dressed it up as having some greater "postmodern" significance.
Yes, I do understand that that is a "postmodern" concept in it's self, but it still proves that it's just pretentious twaddle.
Tssk!
