Contemporary art and tradition

Traditional art and modernism are a new artistic creation concept and expressive language system. It denies the principle of traditional art, does not think that the main goal of art is to combine the imitation of objective things with the expression of ideal beauty, but emphasizes that art is mainly the product of subjective creation and individual expression. Therefore, it shows a strong personality form and expressive force in the appearance of the picture. Therefore, in the works of modernist artists, works based on objective objects often clearly show the author's artistic processing, such as simplification, deformation, exaggeration, decomposition and combination. The works based on subjective interests are more characterized by abstract composition and geometric processing.

Modern art, also known as modernist art, is difficult to have an accurate definition. Generally speaking, art called "modernism" or "modernism" refers to various artistic trends and schools that are different from tradition and have avant-garde and avant-garde colors since the 20th century. The disintegration of modern art originated from the western art along the ancient Mediterranean coast (Egypt, Greece and West Asia), and showed signs of transformation in the late19th century. After entering the 20th century, this symbol has become the mainstream of western art, that is, modern western art. ..

Postmodernism is the hottest topic in China art circles since 1990s. However, no academic term originated from the West has been endowed with so many ambiguities and ambiguities as postmodernism. After reading many related articles in newspapers and magazines and various artistic creations with this signboard, I found that postmodernism was almost regarded as an all-encompassing grocery store. In many young artists in China, postmodernism is interpreted as cynicism, the loss of social responsibility and the dissolution of lofty spirit. It is often a simple patchwork of Coca-Cola trademarks and portraits of Peking Opera costumes.
