Post Modernism

The definition of post modern is quite hard to explain, although it is general thought to be something that doesn't try to hide the fact that it is fake for example René Magritte-'Ceci n'est pas une pipe' painting, it means this is not a pipe but clearly in the painting we can see that he has painted a pipe. It's a contradicting panting, because we could argue that it isn't a pipe because it is a painting of a pipe.













The Term of 'Post Modern' is a contradiction in terms as nothing can be after modern because modern is now, and we can't state that something made is after the present because the present is a constant that cannot be broken.
