Due to its historical consciousness,it is inseparable from ideology,and as discourse construction,post-modernism belongs to the field of ideology. Foucault puts forward that discourse analysis should connect to social,political and cultural factors and that discourse derives from the operation of the power mechanism. T he deconstruction of the post- modernist art brings about the inevitable political context of its discourse. Post-modernism deviates from the discourse system of the dom inant power and is marginalized at the same time.展开更多
