Every piece of art is embedded in a cultural and social context. The more extreme versions of postmodernist attempt to sever art completely from this context only serves to heighten the need for that context by embedding it in a moment and time so completely that outside of that moment and that known context, it cannot be understood at all. In other words, both the contemporaneity and the novelty are the point — the object or artefact is an afterthought. Thus, I’d argue that all postmodern art should be destroyed like a mandala soon after its creation, not because it is meaningless or loathsome as some would argue, but because its animus evaporates outside of the occasion of its immediate context and comprehension.
