The closing note to the postmodernism exhibition at the V&A has been etched on my brain, ever since the words entered it:
Do we still live in a postmodern era? The movement has left behind a sense of unresolved intellectual pro reactions.
New orders music video poses as a melancholy question that is still worth pondering "why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday?"
Postmodernism was marked with a sense of loss, even destructiveness, but also a radical expansion of possibilities. In the permissive. fluid and hyper-commodified situation of design today, we are still feeling the effects.
In that sense, like it or not, we are all postmodern."
Food for thought...
