Abstract
Position of Object in Postmodern Art
Throughout history, there have been many innovations due to activities in the arts. One of these innovations is the "object" factor in art. From a craft, ornamental and functional position, objects have gained a place in artistic positions as well as in Minimalism. While the importance of the use of objects in art is emphasized, it is thought that the object does not mean an artless meaning without a subject. With Duchamp, the object came to the fore with the phenomenon of ready-made work in art and went beyond its own existence with conceptual art, maintaining its continuity within the framework of illusion, metaphor and simulation. The "object of art", which had been stagnant for a period, was seen by many artists as a situation that had to be restructured. For the postmodern period, Baudrillard has attributed an imaginary meaning to the object. This article focuses on the irony, illusion and imaginary meaning of the object in the postmodern period and its use in today's art, and the main subject of this article, what the object is and what it undertakes, is discussed.
