Structuralism, Post-Structuralism & Deconstruction
 

Hi,

Does anyone have a good grasp of the art concepts Structuralism, Post-Structuralism & Deconstruction? Especially in how it pertains to an art historical analysis perspective.

I am writing a paper for my Art History class and I wanted to get a more "layman's" understanding of the concepts. The material I am reading is rather dense and exciting but difficult to comprehend entirely. I wanted to see if I could get another take on it.

shove art and all those words into google and you get a heap of results.. first one I looked at yielded this...
