American Gothic

A REALLY GOOD PAINTING BY GRANT WOOD IN 1930 (the painting of a farm couple posed before a white house) American Gothic is one of the most famous paintings in the history of American art. It is a primary example of Regionalism, a movement that aggressively opposed European abstract art, preferring depictions of rural American subjects rendered in a representational style. The painting has become part of American popular culture, and the couple has been the subject of endless parodies.

Post-Gothic Christianity

Post-Gothic Christianity is a multicultural, all inclusive, especially considering Black Christian traditions in North America, philosophical construction of Christianity that is especially uniquely artistic and individual in scope. Occasionally artists who are Post-Gothic as Christians will include Post-Gothic Christianity as part of their artistic ouevre, including celebrities like Kanye West, a black billionaire who is both a musician and an entrepreneur.

Post-Gothic Christianity is not necessarily theological, it is also artistic, poetic , individualistic, and subjective in height. Post Gothic Christianity is oftentimes ironic in scope, political in purpose, and it is purposefully completed by it’s flaws, including the flawed subject of Post-Gothic Christianity, mostly centered and constructed in the 21st century. Post-Gothic Christianity is prominent especially for questioning the white supremacy of all historical Christian traditions, and the “Arian” beginnings of the Christian Church, in Rome, especially concerning the German 'Goths', whom developed Gothic Christianity.

Contemporary Romans by and large are more accepting of Post-Gothic Christianity, on the whole, than they are of Gothic Christianity.

The theory and practice of Post-Gothic Christianity is being actively developed today, and has been well documented within the musical tradition called 'Gospel', largely produced by African Americans in the United States.

Postmodern gothic

A sub-genre of gothic literature that features postmodern undertones. Postmodern gothic novels are often reflective of society post 2000, highlighting fears of the loss of self, commercialism, terrorism and technology. The term "postmodern gothic" was not in use much until recent years, and became especially popular when used to describe the fictional novella "Bittersweet Symphony" by author Rebecca McNutt. Postmodern gothics are especially popular with hipsters, up-and-coming-lawyers and businessmen.
"Wow, man! This postmodern gothic is so eye-opening, the way it describes the evils of advertising and corporate greed!"

"I prefer legal thrillers over gothics, especially postmodern gothics. I hate books set in the 21st Century."
