Nope. Contemporary.

What's the difference?

Modern Art includes Picasso, Van Gough, etc. Wikipedia says it ended in the 1970s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_art

Contemporary means happening right about now.

I always thought "post-modern" was a weird oxymoron like "giant shrimp".

In that case, the contemporary art created now will in 20 years also be an oxymoron.

They are going to run out of adjectives.

I was in a drug store recently and the cold medicines that used to say full-strength or maximum-strength now say "extreme". They are also going to run out of adjectives.

Sort of reminds me of Ludicrous Speed...

Modern refers to a period from the 1860s to the 1970s. Contemporary is present day.

'Modern' art is art made from ~1870 to ~1970 (an oversimplification). 'Contemporary' art just means art made in the present time.
