One of the key aspects of postmodernism in art is playing with existing plots, images and styles. Artists often turn to classical works of art, cultural symbols and historical events, creating new interpretations and visual associations.

Artists often turn to classical works of art, cultural symbols and historical events, creating new interpretations and visual associations. Postmodernism opens up new opportunities in the field of citation, and reinterpretation, as well as the creation of new works of art. As a result, using the predecessors' plots becomes one way to express an individual creative approach and enrich modern artistic culture.

It is not necessary to see the originals of works of art to be inspired by them, because even looking at reproductions or photographs of works, you can get aesthetic pleasure and inspiration. Many of the artists represented at the exhibition created their works after seeing a reproduction instead of the original. The composer Rachmaninoff wrote: "I was not really touched by the color of the canvas. If I had seen the original first, I might not have composed my "Island of the Dead." I like the picture better in black and white."

To study and understand the artist's work, it is not necessary to visit museums or galleries. It is important to open your imagination and perceive art with an open mind and heart.
This is proven by the fact that there are so many independent versions of the" Isle of the Dead" . Artists from different generations and backgrounds have created many versions of it, not only copying the plot and outline, but also retaining its name.
