  • From the beginning of the twentieth century, 'Modernism' impacted and transformed art and clothing. Pablo Picasso and Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel were two of the most central characters in Modernism working simultaneously in their disciplines. Picasso's innovations, particularly in abstract art and Chanel's fashion designs, that dramatically departed from the previous corseted and highly decorative styles, were so significant that they have left an influence on contemporary art and fashion. This study will compare their visual works and documented evidence of their motivations, within the context of their cultural backgrounds, to reveal meaning in the occurrences of overlaps. This approach has examined the historical, cultural background of the artist and designer's environment from different perspectives, adding to previous research in this area. Through this research, outcomes of the analysis have shown similarities and divergences in the wider genres of art and fashion and the practice of the artist and fashion designer. The reference list to this text, used in the survey, gives a comprehensive overview of pertinent publications disseminating Picasso and Chanel's visual works, oral perspectives and cultural impact.

  • Written as her last collaboration with the Provincetown Players, Susan Glaspell's The Verge is an exceptional play in that its formal experiment and modernist theme are clear of her general modernist ambivalence which combines a uniquely American and feminist expression of the modernist spirit with rather conventional forms. Following critics' brief and generalizing comments on the play's protagonist embodying modernist formalism and alienation, this paper offers a full and concrete survey detailing the tenets and the slogans of Modernism inlaid in the play. Its main argument is that Glaspell strategically deployed the metaphysics of egoism, anarchic hostility to the collectiveness of bourgeois society, and formalist preoccupation in Modernism in representing a female egoist's longing for a new order of society, illustrating an intersection between Modernism and feminism. It concludes that The Verge is an extremely rare case of modernist literature where a play, allegedly the least modernist genre of all according to Christopher Innes, exemplifies the "eloquent critical acts entangled in the creative work" which Michael Levenson lists as a distinct feature of modernist texts.

  • The 1960s is a transitional era in the history of architecture. The Byker housing redevelopment project well reflects this situation, and is a good example of materialization of social pluralism and expressional needs of a community. Therefore it was investigated in order to see its meanings in the history of mass housing in the Western countries. The conclusions are as follows: It is the first large-scale project where the concept of user participation was sucessfully realized; It suggested various tools of desirable design methodology; It made a paradigmatic change from modernism to post-modernism in the history of contemporary mass housing projects.

  • 21st century is called digital and information era. The visual communication becomes more important than any other centuries. Visual communication design has been represented in varied images from ancient society up until the present time. Especially graphic design, which has experienced artistic upheaval from modernism and postmodernism, has been enabled to deliver messages in a more developed and sensuous appearances. Deconstructionist design wasn't well received by modernism, an advocate of practicality and effectiveness; however, as the beginning of subsequent postmodernism, it started to earn a warm welcome from a number of designers. Postmodernism made it possible for deconstruction to be a new paradigm appreciating neutral respect for varied expressions and designers' idiosyncrasy. Corresponding to this new trend, Edward Fella published his artwork 'Letters on America', which introduced a variety of vernacular design works in America. It was the result of years of research, and included materials which were not something completely new to field of communication design but rather symbolic, deconstructive images available everywhere around us. Deconstruction broke away from the previous modernism's unity and standards, and sought to achieve a new tensional deliverance. As a consequence, images were created in destructive and incomplete forms. Graphic design also complied with this new code and its advent fascinated the artists in the fields of advertising, editorial and poster designs. This paper contends that contemporary graphic design still maintains a deconstructive representation, examines its locality in design works from an aesthetic viewpoint, and researches theoretical approaches to deconstructionist and case studies conducted domestically. There has been incessant critical contradiction in terms of the heritage of deconstruction. I would like to present you with a moment in which you can struggle to decide whether it is a result of an effort to get away from modernism or an offspring of postmodernism.

  • This study focuses on the Zen style in contemporary fashion which presents itself as one of the dominant cultural phenomena these days. After investigating the basic concepts and features of the Zen style and examining its birth and development, this study moves on to the ways in which it is characteristically applied for the world of fashion. This study is also performed both by the theoretical research on related books and papers for the explication of main concepts and by the practical research on fashion magazines and works of famous fashion designers for the presentation of more detailed illustration. When we are talking about postmodernism, which is a reaction against or a continuation of modernism, as a cultural dominant shown up in the late twentieth century, the Zen style itself can be regarded as a typical representation of postmodernism in fashion. Although the Zen style can be viewed as sharing the basic principles with minimalism which is a main branch of modernism, it is strongly in line with postmodernism (which is human-centered) in that its fundamental idea is based on emotions and feelings of human beings and the purity of natural world. As above, ZEN is a crossover phenomenon between postmodernism and modernism. In this sense, it is said that within the name of postmodernism the Zen style has satisfied our desire to present our inner world of mind with the help of regional philosophy (in this case Oriental one). The four main aspects of the Zen style in fashion are following : simplicity connected with the Oriental moderation, the use of the Oriental silhouette and detail, the destruction of form, and the nature-friendly attitude. These will be under close examination in this study.

  • 1930년대 나치 정권으로 인해 유럽에서 예술 활동에 제약이 많이 발생하자 유럽의 모더니즘을 이끌던 많은 예술가들이 미국으로 이주해 왔다. 이들이 미국 각지에서 디자인 활동을 시작하면서 유럽의 모더니즘을 미국에 알리고 미국 디자인에 많은 영향을 주었다. 이들의 영향을 받은 미국 출신 디자이너들의 활약은 1950년대부터 돋보이기 시작했다. 허브 루발린(Herb Lubalin: 1918-1981), 폴 랜드(Paul Land 1914-1996), 브래드버리 톰슨(Bradbury Thomson 1911-1995), 솔 바스(Saul Bass 1920-1996)등이 대표적인 작가들이다. 이들 중 허브 루발린은 6,70년대에 미국에서 가장 유명했던 그래픽 디자이너 중 하나다. 본 논문에서는 유럽의 모더니즘 디자인이 미국에 영향을 준 시대적 배경을 알아보고, 이러한 영향을 받아 미국 6,70년대의 그래픽 디자인을 주도한 허브 루발린의 작품에 대해 분석한다. 허브 루발린은 타이포그래피가 단순히 문자적 의미를 전달하는 것만이 아니라 '시각 이미지'로서 사용될 수 있다는 것을 증명해주었다. 그는 다양한 실험정신과 독창적인 창의력으로 새로운 타이포그래피의 표현을 가능하도록 해 주었으며, 이로 인해 인쇄 기술도 끌어올려주었다.

  • 본 논문에서 우리는 1840년대에 러시아 문학의 무대에 처음으로 등장했던 오필리어에게 부여되었던 전형적인 낭만적 이미지들이 모더니즘 문학 속에서 부활하며 어떤 새로운 함의들로 채워졌는지를 밝히고자 한다. 19세기 오필리어의 형상이 '순결한 처녀', '비극적인 연인', '시인의 뮤즈'라는 전형적인 오필리어의 이미지를 거의 예외 없이 재현했던 것과 달리, 20세기 초 러시아 모더니즘 문화의 지형으로 소환된 오필리어는 19세기가 보여주었던 오필리어의 낭만화와는 거리를 두는 새로운 함의들로 채워지게 되고, 또 어떤 지점에서는 놀라운 방식으로 포스트모던 시대의 오필리어, 페미니즘 비평이 새롭게 주목한 오필리어를 선취한다. 이에 우리는 러시아 모더니즘 속에 드러난 오필리어 형상의 전사라 할 19세기 러시아 문학 속의 오필리어 형상을 간략하게 개괄하고, 이어 20세 러시아 모더니즘 시 속에 드러나는 오필리어 형상의 새로운 특징들을 블록(А. Блок), 아흐마토바(А. Ахматова), 츠베타예바(М. Цветаева)의 시들을 중심으로 살피고자 한다.
