    http://www2.essex.ac.uk/courses/pages/AR361-3-FY.asp
    
    Extractions: This course allows students to gain a good general knowledge of the range of Twentieth Century US Art, but also includes more detailed study of the crucial post-1945 developments which made the United States a leading nation in contemporary artistic production and consumption. Students on the course should expect to confront (or be confronted by) radical works of art. The first part of this course will examine the existing forms of non-academic art in the States at the turn of the century, and the importance of realist painters. This desire to represent the States and its people (especially city dwellers) is followed through into the work of many significant artists in the twenties and thirties . The politicisation of this tradition (into Regionalism and Social or Socialist Realism) in the thirties clearly relates to the socio-economic crisis, and is also the context for the significant contribution of the Mexican muralists.

The term " Postmodernism " refers to a philosophical and cultural movement that is notoriously difficult to define, but distinguished largely by its rejection of modernism . The term is hard to define precisely due to one of its central premises: the rejection of " meta-narratives ", ways of thinking that unite knowledge and experience to seek to provide a definitive, universal truth. Also adding confusion to the debate surrounding its definition and significance is the fact that modernity and modernism are not easy to define. Postmodernists claim that modernity was characterised by a monolothic mindset impossible to maintain in the culturally diverse and fragmented world (which is sometimes refered as postmodernity ) that we live in today. Postmodernism, instead, embraces fluid and multiple perspectives, typically refusing to privilege any one 'truth claim' over another. Ideals of universally applicable truths give way to provisional, decentred, local 'petit recits' which, rather than referencing some underlying universal reality, point only to other ideas and cultural artefacts, themselves subject to interpretation and re-interpretation.

    Extractions: At one point in time there was a hot discussion in some usenet groups of post-modernism. The good moggin (not to be confused with his evil twin, Bruce) mailed me his post-modern FAQ and I offered to review it in return. Thus are good deeds rewarded in this sinful world. There are sundry schools of reviewing. I belong to that school which holds that the purpose of the review is to examine and illuminate the work in question for the reader as distinct from expository essays in which the work is an excuse for the reviewer to display his brilliance in topics of his own choosing or to serve as a literary consumers guide or yet to display the reviewers skill at verbal pyrotechnics as he savages the work in question. I also belong to that school of writing that does not shrink from writing long sentences. Thus this review is meant neither to rate nor berate but simply to view anew. There may, however, be diversions here and there as we follow Alice down rabbit holes. The work in question is labelled as an FAQ, nominally answering the question "What is Post Modernism". It is composed of three parts, the assembly, a bibliography, and a conversation. An innocent might well ask upon reading it, "What the fuck is this?". As it happens "this" is a reasonable answer in a particular mode. Before examining the FAQ let us take a slight diversion to consider questions and answers.

(Gareth Branwyn) OK, Back to the Glossary List Memes are patterns of information that behave like viruses. The science of memetics studies the replication, mutation, and carriers of memes. Many scientists consider memes to be actual living things that "ride" in the nervous systems of human beings, and hibernate in books, computer disks, etc. Examples of memes include catchy commercial jingles, the concept of money, political beliefs, and art styles. Certain memes are very susceptible to mutation, such as teenage cultural fads, while others have hit evolutionary dead-ends and hardly change from decade to decade, such as the major religions. Some memes, like fire building techniques, are beneficial to their host, while others are toxic to their host, such as the kamikaze and Jim Jones memes. Oxford zoologist Richard Dawkins coined the term meme in his 1976 book, The Selfish Gene.

    http://www.iath.virginia.edu/~jmu2m/contemporary.literature.32:1.html
    
    Extractions: by John M. Unsworth John Hawkes provides an excellent opportunity for such an inquiry, for several reasons. Discovered by Albert Guerard in 1947 and vigorously promoted by him in the years that followed, Hawkes was the first American "post-modern" author to gain notoriety. Writers of Hawkes's generation were, in turn, the first in this country to spend their entire creative lives in the academy: they have used that position with unprecedented success to shape and control critical reception, especially through the mechanism of the interview. At the same time, as Guerard's influence on Hawkes demonstrates, criticism can shape a writer's understanding of what is important in his or her creative work. There are two places to look for evidence of the kind of influence I am discussing: in the author's work and in representations of that work, either by the author or by the critics. In what follows, I will look at a short story by Hawkes which encodes a drama of authorial influence on critical reading, and along with it I will consider a critical essay on the story which enacts the part scripted for the reader in that drama. Thereafter, I will take a broader sampling of Hawkes's critical fortunes, with an eye not only to the migration of descriptive language from author to critic, via the interview, but also to the genesis of that language in the writing of Hawkes's earliest and most influential critic, Albert Guerard.

    Extractions: The course is intended to give an overview of the main artistic trends from Art Nouveau/ Secession to Post-Modernism by concentrating on the changing role of the arts in society and the changing attitudes of the artists to their vocation. It will concentrate on painting, viewed in its social, cultural and national contexts, and will analyse the relationship between art and political and/or philosophical ideas. As in the Fall Trimester, changing world-views, as manifested in works of art, will be analysed from a social, political and philolsophical point of view. Together with English, French, German and Russian artistic trends, specific Central-European variations of the new styles in art will be discussed. Apart from the oral examination at the end of the course, the students will be tested on their recognition of the styles and masters featured in the lectures. Compulsory reading: E.H.

    Extractions: P A R T As a counter-force to the, at times, monotonous and anonymous image of the International Style, there was an interest in restoring the status of old architectural styles and combining them with the new ideas to create a more versatile visual form of easily distinguishable buildings that also give the client company a symbolic, architectural identity. In the 1990s, this Post-modernist style has been joined by the new, Deconstructivist/neo-Modernist/etc. style of thinking, with the historic references replaced by symbols of a "new machine age", so to say.

The project originated from an initiative by the Lutheran church of St. Peter's (the "jazz church", where the memorial service for Louis Armstrong was held), which was interested in selling its property on the western portion of the block. First National, which had its headquarters in the 399 Park Avenue on the adjacent block right across Lexington Avenue and was in need of expansion, set to acquire properties in 1968, including the church site, which was purchased in 1970.

    Extractions: Artists Talk On Art, NYC; February 29, 1980 The moderator introduced himself and immediately set the tone of the evening: Peter "Blackhawk" von Brandenburg: Post-modernism is almost impossible to talk about and I must have been out of my mind when I suggested this panel. . . . The only hard and fast technical use of the word is in architecture, but post-modern architecture is about the farthest thing from what we're talking about. Four or five years ago something happened, first in the music world and then starting to turn up in art. One term for it is New Wave, but not what you think of now for New Wave, not punk rock, or anything like that, but the sets of conditions that gave New Wave the style it has, had and will have three years from now. Sets of criteria, assumptions, attitudes, poses, stances, perspectives. These are part of a system, and accessible to an artist working in a variety of media in art, painting, music, film not New Image painting or polystylism, which are expressions of symptoms. . . . Ever since World War II there have been youth movements in this country in which a group of people with an indigenous style or culture discover the media structure which informs them. And likewise the media structure discovers them. As soon as the media find out there is something going on, they appropriate it a style, its attitudes, its vocabulary and so co-opt it, domesticate it. This happens time and time again, because the media doesn't invent anything itself.

    Extractions: 6:24 AM 10/27/2002 Three years ago, at the end of the second millennium, the fine visual arts of Western civilisation, as represented by the powers that were, in the fine arts community at that time, had virtually lost all credibility with the vast majority of the general public. Art had not died, but modernism, and especially Post-Modernism, and whatever it was that followed Post-Modernism, had definitely died, leaving what remained of its following clinging to it, as to a bloated corpse. If Modern Art were a living creature, I would say that it had died of dissipation... as a consequence of its excesses, and unhealthy appetites. The galleries and MoMA's (Museums of Modern Art)... temples dedicated to the worship of the dead 'official art' still stood, and still stand today, but the 'action', and the passion, and the real work being done in the fine visual arts had by then, for all practical purposes, deserted the gallery scene. 'Deserted' is actually incorrect... most of the real work that is being done in the fine visual arts today was never a part of the gallery scene to begin with. No painter begins his or her career having gallery representation. One begins painting, or attends a school where one is allegedly taught how to paint, and then at some point down the road, when one's skill level reaches a certain threshold, or talent is presumably recognised, one then might expect to find an art dealer who would be interested in representing one's work, and hopefully selling the painter's work for enough money to provide a livelihood for both the painter, and the dealer, while also helping the painter to advance their career, in various ways.
