The notion of Contemporary Art has not been defined clearly. There are various movements: Current Art, 21rst Century Contemporary Art, Modern Art...
The term Modernism, however, already has been associated to an epoque, that not has finished yet, but that already is an integral part of art history. Especially in the context of the upcoming notion of Postmodernism.
These notions do not allude to a certain concept, an artistical style or a certain technique. They do not present any affinity to an artistic movement or group. Contemporary Art may be attributed to painting, sculptures, video art, computer art, conceptual art, net art.
In Contemporary Art, the depiction of the vulva or the vagina is to be found in different movements, but it mainly is associated to the breaking of the taboo around sex and genitalia. Some exponents already have been mentioned in the chapter about Feminist Art.
