I have a presentation on Post modern art tomorrow. Im supposed to pick a photo, and write about how it is post modern art

i chose this photo

HandFace.jpg


If anyone knows a lot about post modern art, or would care to throw me

some ideas as to what makes this post modern, I would appreciate that.

I got that it is kindof confusing, and I was also going to say that it

is sort of ironic that hands are in the form of a face.

thanks
 
Perhaps you could write about how the image takes advantage of our human pareidoliac instincts to create an abstract yet simple image?
 
I dont really know....that picture looks really kitsch to me. Maybe find a post modern building and comment on the architecture...could you do that? Look up michael graves, robert venturi. Philip johnson has a bunch too. Its somewhat about a rejection of modernism(which rejected history), to bring back historical forms into architecture(Look at the bank of america center in houston, one atlantic center in atlanta, or other works of johnson).
 
The problem is ive already committed to this picture. But i saw it like 50 times when i googled post modern art, so im guessing it will be fine.
