“后现代主义艺术”是一个宽泛的概念,最早出现于建筑领域,其本意是对现代主义的建筑理论所倡导的诸如“国际风格”形式服从功能,装饰是罪恶等论点的反叛,主张多元趋向的建筑风格。后来这个概念逐渐发展到艺术的其他领域,目前学术界对这个概念的解释尚无一致的定论。而将“后现代主义”当作一个历史分期的概念应该是可以接受的,因为它并不是指某一种特定的风格。在六七十年代以下至于当下,在欧美仍然活跃着很多专门从事现代主义艺术创作的艺术家及其流派,并且具有非常强烈的前卫性。 “Postmodernism ” is a broad concept, first appeared in the field of architecture, its intention is the rebuttal of the connotation of such as “international style ” advocated by modernist architectural theory, decoration is the evil , Advocating the trend of multi-architectural style. Later, the concept gradually developed into other fields of art. At present, there is no consistent conclusion on the interpretation of this concept in academia. The concept of “postmodernism ” as a historical staging should be acceptable because it does not refer to a particular style. In the 1960s and 1970s, there are still many artists and their genres active in the modernist arts in Europe and the United States, and they are very avant-garde.
