Hypermodernism is a cultural and artistic movement that emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, characterized by an intense embrace of technology and a focus on speed, complexity, and the future. This movement often challenges traditional modernist values by emphasizing hyper-reality, where the boundaries between reality and virtuality blur. Hypermodernism is evident in architecture, design, and visual arts, where artists and creators use advanced digital tools and futuristic aesthetics to explore themes of globalization, identity, and the impact of technology on society.
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
