Distinguishing features of postmodernism

The brand-new plane without depth and the lack of connotation of bai are the first and most obvious characteristics of postmodernism. So some people say that dao postmodernism is a reaction and a subversion of modernism. While people are pointing out the "collage" characteristics of postmodernist art, the postmodernist theory itself also shows a full color palette, especially in China.
The sources of Chinese postmodernist theories are very complex. In addition to Western theories, there are theories derived or misunderstood in the process of "theoretical travel" and theories created on the basis of the two. These theories are in similar contexts. Mutual combination, miscellaneous.


In "In the Mood for Love", with the elegant cheongsam and the repeated jazz music, the director aims to reproduce the social fashion of Hong Kong in the 1960s in the form of film beauty. Using these soft romance and false nostalgia to surround people's reality, repackage a historical time that has long been far away from us, which is convincing but also feels that it is a refurbished version. The history of this aesthetic style easily replaces the "real" history.
In today's increasingly globalized economy and culture, in the real historical scene of contemporary China, the cultural interpretation code of postmodernism will eventually become our own discourse, a more appropriate description and reference to local social and cultural phenomena. The way of speaking, because for any alien discourse system, as long as we explore and develop it, it is equal to constantly rewriting and rewriting it. First is dogmatism and then revisionism. This is our attitude towards postmodernism in China.
