What Exactly is Postmodernism?
My initial understanding of the postmodern movement came about in my years of art school while pursuing a BFA in studio art (I could usually be found hanging out in the dark editing suites on the 6th floor of the Humanities building) at UW-Madison. In general, the postmodern movement (~1960s-1980s) is a reaction to, and rejection of, modernism's adherence to idealism and objectivity as it pertains to human culture.  As a student I was, and continue to be, intrigued by and aligned with postmodernism's skepticism of universal truths and objective reality as well as its embrace of the complexity and paradox of the individual human experience, which is reflected in the art, architecture and writing of that time. Art movements within postmodernism include intermedia, installation art, conceptual art and multimedia, particularly involving video. The focus shifted away from solely being on the finished work and more on the artist's process.

In addition to making my eyeballs happy, my hope for Method's postmodern-inspired decor is to not only ignite appreciation for the influential artists of the postmodern movement but to also create a springboard, not a container, for each individual’s creative process. Keep in mind, Method's furnishings are not an exact replica of vintage postmodern interior because, how postmodern would that be?

Stay weird,
