This web site grew out of an exhibition at the Boston Institute of Fine Arts in 1994. After reviewing my work and the work of the other contributors I wanted to extend the scope to include an examination of some aspects of postmodernist aesthetics.
Postmodernism contains many provocative concepts.
This is important because a good deal of the art of the last quarter century is based on these principles. Postmodernist methods include repetition, appropriation, imitation, plagiarism and violation in order to refute the putative autonomy of the work of art. After you have looked through this site, please go to the Discussion Area and contribute your thoughts on these issues.
