3. Answer questions with all honesty. Success does not come from copying from others. It is
made possible by trying hard on your own so that you can learn even from your mistakes.

help you lessen if not avoid errors.

having a pile of unfinished activities.
7. Feel free to communicate with your teacher. There is no harm in asking for clarification so
that you will not be lost in the discussion.
8. Remember to review every time you are done answering the activities.
9. Have fun as you learn. This course is very important regardless of your track or strand. When
you’re having fun, you can easily learn the lessons.

What’s In

In the previous module, we looked closely at the forms of artwork, and we saw how
materials, techniques, and elements can be capable of conveying concepts, values
feelings and attitudes. We have viewed, experienced and sensed works of art closely,
and heightened and honed our senses in the process.

In practice, it is difficult to separate subject matter and thematic plane. Subject matter
answers the question “what do we see, hear, smell, taste, or touch?” Using our senses is
the initial step, and as we learned in the previous lessons of this module, this requires
keen and diligent observation, not just of the image, but how it is presented and if there
is no image, how the formal elements are employed.

What Is It

Each province in the Philippines can proudly boast of its arts and crafts. For
example, Marinduque have enriched their local arts and crafts. Some of the arts and
crafts of Marinduque include the following:

 Ceramics – things that are made from heated and hardened clay.
 Pottery – things such as pots and dishes, that are made from baked clay.

Arts and crafts in Marinduque are being learned by local residents in the province.
Local residents treat their arts and crafts as a source of income, making it an
entrepreneurship.

Marinduque is a province in Luzon that is found in MIMAROPA (short for

Occidental Mindoro, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan).
Marinduque is known for its "Moriones Festival" where people wear masks and
costumes like those of biblical Roman soldiers.

What I Have Learned

Contemporary arts and design works that make use of traditional techniques, a
tendency that spans global cultures and includes a wide range of experiments with
materials and imagery. Examples include the incorporation of calligraphy into paintings
and the use of embroidery or weaving, for instance, in the textile works of Alighiero
e Boetti or the digitally spun tapestries of Pae White. These works often blur the
boundary between the concept of art and craft, representing a hybrid of cultural
traditions.

Concept art is a form of illustration used to convey an idea for use in films, video
games, animation, comic books, or other media before it is put into the final product.

10
Work of Alighiero e Boetti Work of Pae White

Remember these key points:

 The following are the kinds of art to choose what concept will draw:
o Abstract expressionism – a post-World War II art movement
in American painting
o Kinetic Art – art from any medium that contains movement
perceivable by the viewer or depends on motion for its effect.
o Op Art – in which conflicting patterns emerge and overlap.
o Performing arts – form of art in which artists use their voices
and/or their bodies, often in relation to other objects, to
convey artistic expression.
o Environment Art – a range of artistic practices encompassing
both historical approaches to nature in art and more recent
ecological and political motivated types of works.
o Minimalism – describe movement especially visual art and
music.
o Video arts – moving pictures in a visual and audio medium.
o Graffiti Art – also called “street Art”, “Spraycan Art”, “Subway
Art” or “Aerosol Art”.
o Post-modern Art – Body Art and Digital Art
o Body Art – art made on, with, the human body. Body tattoo
and body Painting.
o Digital Art- artistic work uses digital technology.

What’s In

In the previous lesson, we discussed about the art history of the Philippines. We
also learned about the different kinds of art and its elements in order to help us in
choosing which concepts we will create. An example would be from Marinduque, where
arts and crafts are being learned by local residents. Local residents treat their arts and
crafts as a source of income, making it an entrepreneurship.

As briefly mentioned above, the arts and crafts of Marinduque include the following:

 Ceramics - things that are made from heated and hardened clay
 Pottery - things, such as pots and dishes, that are made from baked clay.

Marinduque is a province in Luzon that is found in MIMAROPA (short for

Occidental Mindoro, Oriental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan).
Marinduque is known for its "Moriones Festival" where people wear masks and
costumes like those of biblical Roman soldiers.

What Is It

Integrative or Integrated Arts refers to interdisciplinary art, art study, development,

production, display, or creative creation of work that makes full use of two or more
disciplines of art to produce a work for a particular public.

The Integrative arts explore the imaginative, analytical, special and unexpected.
The Integrative Arts are the special artistic ambitions of the intellectual and technical
instruments.

17
At Seneca Academy, the arts (fine arts, drama, music, movement) have always
been an integrated part of their curriculum. They weave the arts into their core
classroom curricula as well as teach specific artistic skills and abilities.

Many contemporary artists are self-taught and did not have formal education.
Originality is not issue in contemporary art. An artists can get another artist’s work and
add to it, redesign or interpret it using other materials.

extensively, exposing himself to life’s realities, loves to work with abandoned children,
the abused children. For in paintings he can help draw out emotions of these children
through creative works, expressing true feelings of sad, happy experiences, memoirs

19
What’s In

Contemporary artists found used bottles, hay, rice stalks, plastic straw and other
recycled materials useful in creating artworks. Art and recycling goes hand-in-hand.
Eco-artists are, nowadays, transforming old, recycled and resued object into amazing
pieces of contemporary art. The trend started gaining prominence in 1980s when
museums and galleries in the Western world opened their doors for such innovation
and creativity.

In recent years, many artists in the Middle East has started expressing their support
for recycling and sustainability through artworks where they merge traditional tone with
contemporary themes creating attractive installation art that express local cultural
heritage in the larger public interests. Artists are expressing their emotions and ideas
through a wide range of recyclables glass, cans, plastics, CDs, PET bottles etc.

This type of art is termed as Installation Art which is 3-dimensional work using
common raw and natural materials to create an object with different messages directed
to the viewers and the public audiences. Installation art can be expressed at any type
of form like objects, videos, sound or even through the Internet. Interestingly,
installation art is also considered a part of Renaissance where people can discover
classical cultural movements like Surrealism and Futurism.

Many artists search for inspirations that surround them while others express their
feelings in the artwork. Artists use recycled or reused objects to make attractive pieces
of contemporary art and literally turn everyday trash into creative treasures. Some
create compositions from recycled plastic bags or themed works for art galleries, while
others create entire theme parks with trash, and even furniture from recycled materials.
For example, if an artist has a penchant for collecting beverage cans, he/she might be
interested in creating a replica of a famous building or monument. Bristol’s whales
sculpture is made of willow and 70000 plastic bottles.
