Becoming an artist is a matter of priorities. It is within the context of a community that these priorities can be tested and better understood.

Art is a force close to life.
While the term Postmodern art may have been useful in architectural theory in the late seventies, it does not fit seamlessly within a generalized discourse on the current situation in art. In fact, Postmodern art does not exist. While prerequisite to Modernism, style loses its function when applied to Postmodernism. Postmodernism signifies repetition within the reification of objects. There is stasis.
