Reading #6: Postmodernism

"Postmodernism is a kind of parasite; dependent on its modernist host and displaying many of the same features - except that the meaning has changed."

"Postmodernism - to the horror of many observers - appears to accept the world as it is."

"It's not wise to violate rules until you know how to observe them." -T.S. Eliot

"Graphic design is a much more open, diverse, inclusive and, perhaps too, inventive field as a result of the challenges (of postmodernism)."
