Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970 - 1990
Barclays Wealth is proud to support Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970 - 1990 at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The V&A's major autumn exhibition is the first in-depth survey of art, design and architecture of the 1970s and 1980s, examining one of the most controversial phenomena in recent art and design history: Postmodernism. It shows how Postmodernism evolved from a provocative architectural movement in the early 1970s and rapidly went on to influence all areas of popular culture including art, film, music, graphics and fashion.
Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970 - 1990 brings together over 250 objects across all genres of art and design, revisiting a time when style was not just a 'look' but became an attitude.
The sponsorship of this exhibition enables Barclays Wealth to further deepen our relationships within the arts, and reflects our commitment to long-term partnerships with organisations that demonstrate thought leadership and innovation.
The exhibition, which is also supported by the Friends of the V&A, will run from 24 September 2011 - 15 January 2012.
