POSTMODERN MODERN

Postmodernism

is a late 20th century design movement, which begun when designers sought to challenge constraints imposed by modern principles and ideology. Postmodernism  was entirely different to modernism, but it would not excist with out it. It is a way where designers can easily represent their thinking about subject.  

The postmodern style is often assosiated with collage, pastiche and irony. They used no grid, a range of materials, expressive colours and also collages. Postmodernism conects low and high art: trained or untrained artist. Thus, postmodernism works includes irony, playfulness and expressionism. 

Modernism

an art movement which started in the 19th century and finished in the early 20th. Surrounded by the chaos of industrialisation and world war, designers  attempted to bring order and meaning to their work and society. It strongly departures from tradition .

Artists were interested in inovation: in new types of paints and other materials.They wanted to express feelings and ideas instead of trying to show what is real. Artist started  to be very nutritious by rejecting eternal values and also they did not feel anymore that man is the most  important measure of all things as neither is God.


They  explored  geometric typefaces, white spaces, minimalism and even  universality of design. It was one of the main reasons arise through modernism and its movement as: De Stijl, Cubism, Fauvism, Futurism and many others.
