Postmodernism: Style and Subversion in Sound and Vision 1970-1990

Postmodernism: Style and Subversion in Sound and Vision 1970-1990 is a promotional-only CD / 12" vinyl compilation album and DVD featuring Duran Duran, released in the UK by EMI / Victoria & Albert Museum during 2011.

About the album
The album was created exclusively for the Victoria & Albert Musuem in London to coincide with an exhibition called Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970-1990, held between 24 September 2011 and 15 January 2012. The exhibition was an in-depth survey of art, design and architecture of the 1970s and 1980s, which examined one of the most contentious phenomena in recent art and design history: postmodernism.

One of the biggest names in music, EMI Music worked closely with the V&A Shop to produce the album, which features music heard in the actual exhibition and includes two tracks by Duran Duran.

The double CD and DVD set has 32 tracks and 18 music videos, spanning New Romantic, Electro, Krautrock, New Wave, and Hip Hop to present a curated postmodern mix of artists from both main stream and fringes, the internationally successful and the critically acclaimed.

The compilation was also produced as a limited edition gatefold double LP (500 copies), featuring artwork by Charles Jencks, the namesake of postmodernism and an essay by the exhibition curator.
