In my opinion, post modern art is art that has been inspired by many of the trends and the possibly even the new fashions and points of views in modernism. Postmodern art is a blend of a plethera of differnt cultures, societies, languages. It also centers more around the mainstreams issues in life. Postmodernism, I think, isn't so much about what the art is about or what its subject is, but instead, what the concept of it is or the feeling that the art gives a person when they look at it.

Feminist art is subosedly considered to be postmodern art because much of that art is very cultural. Also, feminist art should give the viewer some kind of a reaction, it shouldn't be just about the subject in the artwork.

Cindy Sherman's photographs mainly have the same subject matter in most of her artwork, but they all seem to somehow comvey different feelings. She also changed and manipulated many of the photographs that she took. All of her photographs gave the viewer different feelings in each one of her pieces.

Ben Durham's art is the closest thing that I could find on that site. He jsut does simple portraits of people in pencil and thats all that I am doing
