Smith's record was the first boogie-woogie recording to be a commercial hit, and helped establish boogie-woogie as the name of the style. It was closely followed by another example of pure boogie-woogie, Honky Tonk Train Blues by Meade Lux Lewis, recorded by Paramount Records; (1927), first released in March 1930.
Modern, Contemporary, and Postmodern Art. Generally speaking, contemporary art is defined as any form of art in any medium that is produced in the present day. However, within the art world the term designates art that was made during and after the post-Pop art era of the 1960s.
The term postmodernist art refers to a wide category of contemporary art created from about 1970 onwards. The hallmark of postmodernist art is its rejection of the aesthetics upon which its predecessor - modern art (1870-1970) - was based. One of these rejected values is the idea that art is something special which should be elevated from popular taste.
