The term postmodernism has been applied to a host of movements, mainly in art, music, and literature, that reacted against tendencies in modernism, and are typically marked by revival of historical elements and techniques.In general, refers to the period of time that follows Modernism. Postmodernists borrowed indiscriminately from past styles without adopting the ideology or full aesthetic principles of any given historical movement. Also, postmodernists often mixed together historical references that did not necessarily fit with one another. Postmodernism is in some way against the principles of modernism, made possibly by the rapidly changing technology. Designers had the opportunity to do things with type that would have been too difficult to experiment with in the past. Postmodernism had a largely reaction to the assumed certainty of scientific, or objective, efforts to explain reality. One of the most interesting aspects of Postmodernism is the concept of deconstruction. The breaking down of something (an idea, a precept, a word, a value) in order to “decode” its parts in such a way that these act as “informers” on thing, or on any assumptions or convictions regarding it”. Simply taking things apart in the hope of “reinventing” form and “revitalizing print media.”
