Quotes About Avant-gardism

Postmodernism is among other things a sick joke at the expense of revolutionary avant-gardism.
~ Terry Eagleton
However objective one's analytical approach may seem, [Some dude] argues, we must recognize the myth of objectivity as another rhetoric, another metadiscourse fashioning our sense of 'reality.' Although avant-gardism has long been believed to be a metafictional rhetoric displacing reality, we must not forget that it is a framework of reality that has been constructed rhetorically--whether its rhetoric is ontological or consumerist or creative-masochistic.
~ Takayuki Tatsumi
