Modernism is generally wrapped around the belief that the world is constantly improving itself and moving toward a greater, more perfect whole.

Postmodernism is generally wrapped around the idea that the world changes, that ideas change, and that some ideas work better than others, but that there is no "right" way of doing things. Postmodernism challenges the way society has structured the world and does not like to categorize people or art. It does not believe in progress.

How could modernity be distinguished from post-modernity?

Art jargon is silly, isn't it, just! Modern, of course means "happening right now" and so if it meant anything at all, post-modern would mean "happening more recently than right now," which is nonsense. Oh, well. In art jargon " modern" doesn't really mean modern. It means old-fashioned in a particular way.
