LESSON 1: ARTS IN THE PHILIPPINES
I. Background Information for Learners
Art or “Sining” is defined as the different manners of expressing human skills and imagination in the
creation of aesthetic conditions, objects and presentations. Art is not confined only to what is seen. Art involves
the use of all the physical senses in order to appreciate it.
ARTS OF THE PHILIPPINES

The development of the Philippine arts comes in three major traditions. These are the Ethnic Tradition,
Spanish Colonial Tradition, and American Colonial and Contemporary Arts Traditions. Even before the
colonization, the Philippines already has its indigenous arts. In this era, art forms were primarily influenced by
the area where our ancestors prosper. However, the Spaniards came who tend to replace indigenous arts with
western arts. For the period of Spanish rule, art forms were primarily influenced by religion and secularization.
Consequently, after more than three centuries of Spanish colonization, Americans came. During American rule,
development of Philippine art forms was mainly influenced by education and governance. Subsequently, concept
of modern art was introduced and practiced by many artists. It is in this time wherein urbanization,
consumerism, changes in the political system, and rise of new technology influence the development of art. Due
to the technological advances, new forms of expression came in the field of arts and modern art continuously
developed which led to the contemporary arts nowadays (Luzviminda & Sayseng, 2016). To describe the
development of Philippine arts, read the information presented on the table below.

These art forms from various regions or from various artists contributed to the picture of Philippine’s
identity as a country. And as a Filipino, it’s important that we have knowledge to describe these art forms based
on its details and elements, in relation to our country’s culture and tradition, that makes it an artistic piece. In
the field of arts, knowing the elements and principles of arts is important, not just to the artist but also to the
viewer, to have a deeper understanding of an artwork. Now, let us know these elements and principles of arts.
Elements of Art
1. Space In visual arts, space pertains to emptiness which may either be positive
space or negative space. Positive space refers to a part which is enclosed in a
shape, while negative space refers to the opposite part which the shape is enclosing.
2. Line In visual arts, a line is a series of connected points. It may come in two
characteristics: form – curved, dotted, or broken lines; and direction –
vertical, horizontal, or diagonal lines. Different types of lines may convey
different meanings. For example, a horizontal line usually suggests calmness, vert ical lines may convey
strength, diagonal lines create an impression of action, curved lines create an expression of gradual change
of direction, and circular line may pertain an abrupt change of direction.
3. Shape and Form Shape is an area that is enclosed by a line or lines. Shapes are two
dimensional figures with height and width. There are different kinds of shapes and
these are geometric shapes (triangle, squares, rectangle, etc.), organic shapes (shapes
found in nature, e.g. shape of a leaf or cloud), abstract shapes (asymmetrical and free
flowing shapes). Meanwhile, forms are three dimensional figures. Its dimensions are
height, width, and volume. Unlike shapes, it has more depth.
4. Color In visual arts, color is associated with the natural phenomenon in our
environment. Scientifically, when a light passes through a prism, it will produce
different hues of different wavelengths. These colors may pertain to lightness,
darkness, coolness, or warmth.
5. Value In visual arts, value is considered a property of a color which pertains to its
lightness or darkness.
6. Texture In visual arts, texture is the element that appeals to our sense of feel on things, rough, smooth,
bumpy, or slippery. It pertains to the surface of an art piece.
Principles of Art
1. Proportion - Proportion refers to the relationship of the size of elements in a body of art. For example,
when drawing a human standing beside a house, it is important to ensure that the size of the human is
proportional to the size of the house.
2. Harmony - In visual arts, harmony is the unity of the artwork, specifically about the arrangement of the
related elements.
3. Variety - In other terms, variety may be referred to as diversity. This means adding multiple, different
elements to break the monotony of an artwork and make it more interesting.
4. Movement - In arts, movement is the illusion of motion in a painting, sculpture design, or in a piece of
art.
5. Rhythm - This refers to the repetition of certain elements to produce a pattern. In visual arts, repeated
design elements may create a certain flow and may lead the viewer’s eyes.
6. Balance - Balance refers to the even and equal distribution of elements.
7. Emphasis - Emphasis is a principle which may refer to the greater impact given on a certain element.
These elements and principles of arts are essential to understand the meaning of a piece of art clearly and
deeply. In relation to that, diverse art forms in the Philippines convey its meanings through the elements and
principles present to them. So, as we described some art forms from the various regions through the
development of Philippine arts, let’s use the elements and principles of arts to understand it.

LESSON 2: ART: MEANING AND FORMS
Different kinds of local artworks have sprung not only in the urban centers of the country and in schools
of arts of different educational institutions but also a lot more of never before seen or heard art forms from the
countryside have made known and have become renowned. The seeming isolation and distance of many
communities in far flung regions have kept the beauty and significance of countless forms of Philippine art. It is
real good news that they have been exposed and have been expressed.
Contemporary Philippine Arts from the Regions is not just a subject that has to be learned. It wants
Contemporary Philippine Arts to be viewed, to be understood and to be appreciated in the context as they were
created. As mentioned in the previous module, the arts come in various categories and forms.
It is essential to know and understand the meaning of the term contemporary when used in defining
Contemporary Philippine Arts. Understanding it would pave the way for better appreciation of the arts in the
Philippine context. Understanding Philippine Arts would provide a better perception of the details, context,
meaning and significance of the artworks placed in a cultural, political and historical context.
It is also important to differentiate Modern Philippine Arts from Contemporary Philippine Arts. It would
be easy to misunderstand the two by treating them as interchangeably the same. The recent years revealed a
conglomeration or mix of different art forms and art media that are expressions of the times where we live in.
Many art forms are integrated to create artworks that are quite different from Classical and Modern Arts.
Integrative Art has become part of Contemporary Art. Contemporary Art is evident when we go to the different
regions and provinces of our country. Each artwork exhibiting its own uniqueness and meaning.
Present day art has a lot of variety. There are various expressions Philippine art that can be found right
inside our homes and are found everywhere. The arrangement of furniture, home décor, the way a mother cooks
a particular kind of food to the jeepney designs and signages, architecture of buildings, billboard designs and
other unnoticed works of art, comprise the “art of today.”
The artworks and styles of the past have evolved and have adapted to a dynamic changing world, a world
immersed in the latest technology and emerging ideologies. These artworks and styles are created, witnessed
and experienced in our lifetime by artists and style experts catering to Millennial and Gen Z viewers, and techy
clientele. These artworks are collectively known as Contemporary Art.
The term contemporary has been defined as something “happening, existing, living, or coming into being
during the same period of time” (Merriam-Webster). Assuming this definition, Contemporary Art refers to art of
any form and genre that produced in our contemporary time, simply put as “art created today.” It should not be
confused with Modern Art which ranges from the end of the 19th Century until the 1970’s or 1980’s or the late
20th Century. It will put Contemporary Art from the late 20th Century to the present. Modern Art differs from
Contemporary Art historically and contextually.
CONTEMPORARY ART
Contemporary Art is influenced by the economic, social, political and environmental context where the
artist is immersed in. It can be said that Contemporary Art is the artist’s expression of his perception and
comprehension of these contexts. Contemporary Arts in the Philippines is as diverse as our people.
Contemporary Philippine Art is not confined to the usual genres of the four main art forms, namely, visual,
literary, applied and performing arts. Genres are categories of artistic creation and are characterized by
similarities in form, style, or subject matter. Many other genres came up which include pure are forms as well as
mixed art forms. The following are examples from each art form:
Examples of Contemporary Art Forms

Contemporary Art is prominent in the Philippines and has been appreciated by so many people, and some
of them were not even aware that they are looking at fine examples of Contemporary Art. Many contemporary
Philippine artworks have earned the admiration and respect of viewers from here and abroad. These artworks
are expressions of the artist’s thoughts and feelings based on their experience of the here and now. These include
current events, issues and social concerns affecting the society where the artist lives in.
Contemporary Philippine artists hail from the different regions of the country. They use a wide variety of
art media in their creations, some of the media are materials that are readily available in the locality where the
artist resides. Contemporary Philippine artworks are multifaceted and are expressive renditions of the artist’s
perception of what were observed and experienced. These artists create, work and make art in their personal
context. Viewers can appreciate contemporary Philippine art more by employing all of their senses. Viewing art
is not just a detached experienced but a deep personal experience of dwelling into the artist’s mind and heart.
Expressions of Contemporary Philippine Art are influenced by social, historical, geographical, ideational,
personal and technical factors. These factors are imbibed by the artist and are combined to get immersed in the
heart, to get molded in the mind and to be propelled in the hands to create an expressive reality.
Elements of Contemporary Art

Contemporary Arts have different elements that are put together to come up with a distinct artwork. These
elements include:
1. Appropriation, this relates to the modifications made by the artist.
2. Hybridity, this refers in the use of different art mediums that are put together.
3. Technology, its application highlights the creativity of the artist.
4. Performance, carried out for viewers to experience.
5. Space, intricate use of space.
These elements are combined in different ways to come up with Integrative Art. Integrative Art employs the
use of different art elements used together in distinct different expressions. Thus, it becomes a combination of
different art forms for specific groups of viewers. Integrative art is also a fusion of different art disciplines using
different styles and media in creating art. It can be found in different places of the country, usually in urban areas
where artists have ready access to different art forms and media. Examples of Integrative Art include the use of
computer applications combined with other media, the use of non-traditional art materials in creating artworks
usually done with mixed art forms.
Contemporary Art Forms from the Philippine Regions

With modern technology and easy access to far-flung areas of the country, many artworks have become
known and many more are being created by present day artists from the different regions. All forms of art can
be found throughout the country. Artworks coming from the seventeen regions of the three main island groups
of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, have been exhibited in different exhibition halls and museums. Viewers have
come to know and, more importantly, to understand the present-day art expressions of artists who want their
culture, situation and issues be known through their artworks.
The distinct features of Contemporary Philippine Art include:
1. Communal nature, as it reflects the relationships build around the bonds of community and society.
2. Intuitive, as Filipinos are immersed in their consciousness of themselves, their community and their
culture.
3. Holistic, as individuals, groups of people and events are perceived in their entirety as well as the unitive
use of art materials and forms.
4. Creative process, as the artist puts more emphasis on now their artwork was made than on the artwork
itself.
5. Integrative, as it encompasses religious, moral, spiritual, social, and environmental concerns.
6. Multi-focal, as it considers everything and everyone, the wide perspective of the artwork as well as both
artist and viewer.

V. ACTIVITIES
Activity 1 Analyzing Contemporary Philippine Arts
Contemporary Philippine Art considers not only the artist but also the participation of the community
through the viewers. The experience is not solely confined to the creator of the artwork but also to its viewer.
Being member of the community and a viewer, you can also take part in creating art. There is no established or
fixed standard in creating contemporary art. The artist is free to render his artwork with the use of various
materials, traditional or non-traditional, any combination of style and technique, and choice of form either singly
or in combination.
Observing Art: Understanding the Form, Media and Style

Integrative Art comes in different sizes and shapes, forms and styles. This art can be observed in Junk Art.

Activity 2 Bring Out Your Resourcefulness and Creativity

Traditional art media include pencils, crayons, watercolor, papers, scissors and a lot more of materials
usually used in school. Young students have learned to draw and to create artworks from these materials. Some
students excelled with the use of these materials but there are others who can do better with non-traditional art
materials. These materials can be accessed and can be acquired free from the surroundings. There is no need to
purchase them from a bookstore. It all depends on one’s resourcefulness and creativity.
One is resourceful if one has the ability to find quick and clever ways to get art materials from one’s
surroundings. One is creative if one can use his or her imagination in coming up with an artwork that is
considered original and has never been done or created before. The combination of resourcefulness and
creativity can bring out the artist in everyone.

LESSON 3: CONTEMPORARY ART FORMS FROM THE REGIONS
The Philippine Contemporary Art can be classified into seven major art forms. These are painting,
sculpture, architecture, film, literature, music and theater, and dance. Knowing these classifications will
guide us in identifying and exploring different contemporary art forms from the regions of the Philippines.
So, let’s start classifying and exploring the Philippine’s contemporary art forms!
PHILIPPINE CONTEMPORARY ARTS

Philippine contemporary arts can be described into visual arts, literary arts and performing arts.
Visual art is an expression of artistic ideas through images, structures, and tactile work. Some visual
artworks are integrated which means it combines several mediums to create new and unique artwork.
Painting, sculpture, architecture, and film are examples of visual arts.
Painting
Painting the expression of ideas and emotions, with the creation of certain aesthetic qualities, in a
two-dimensional visual language. The elements of this language – its shapes, lines, colors, tones, and
textures – are used in various ways to produce sensations of volume, space, movement, and light on a flat
surface. The first paintings here in the Philippines are commissioned works during Spanish colonization.
Here are some paintings from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
Sculpture
The sculpture is an art form in which hard or plastic materials are worked into three-dimensional
art objects. Filipino sculptors came to be known in the middle of the 19th century. These are some of the
sculptures in the Philippines.
Architecture
Architecture is the art and practice of designing and constructing buildings (Cambridge Advanced
Learner’s Dictionary & Thesaurus). In relation to that, Philippine architecture was characterized as simple,
rational, and functional. In the 20th century, the young Filipino who studied in American colleges and
institutes introduced the neoclassic style in building structures. However, after World War II, real estate
development started to take place (Sandagan & Sayseng, 2016). To illustrate these architectural designs,
these are some examples from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
Film
Film is a form of visual art use to imitate experiences that communicate ideas, stories, or feelings
with the use of moving images. It is also called a movie or motion picture. Moreover, the art form that is
the result of the film is called cinema (Faber & Walters, 2003). The film industry in the Philippines started
in 1897. In the contemporary period, martyr wife, superhero, action, melodramas, and comedies are some
of the usual subjects and themes in the Philippine films. Some films in the Philippines are presented below.
Apart from visual arts, there are Philippine contemporary art forms that can be described as literary
arts. Literary arts are an expression of ideas through writing. Literary arts can be categorized as poetry,
prose, and drama. In the Philippines, literary arts are greatly encountered in literature.
Literature
According to Lombardi (2020), literature is a term used to describe written and sometimes spoken
material. Derived from the Latin word literature meaning "writing formed with letters," literature most
commonly refers to works of the creative imagination, including poetry, drama, fiction, nonfiction, and in
some instances, journalism, and song. These are some examples of Philippine literature.
Luzon Visayas Mindanao
• A Blade of Fern by Edith • Panhayhay hin Bungtohanon by • Dead Stars by H.O. Santos
Ocampo Francisco Alvarado • Indarapatra at Sulayman by
• I Saw the Fall of the Philippines • An Higugma by Iluminado Bartolome Del Valle
by Carlos P. Romulo Lucente
Furthermore, there are also Philippine contemporary art forms that can be described as
performance arts. A person doing certain actions and movements in front of an audience that go along with
sound in a space and time is called Performing Arts.
Music and Theater
Music is a collection of coordinated sound or sounds. According to Ramon P. Santos in his article
entitles Contemporary Music, Contemporary music in the Philippines usually refers to compositions that
have adopted ideas and elements from twentieth-century art music in the West, as well as the latest trends
and musical styles in the entertainment industry. Filipino Music had already a rich and unique musical
tradition long before westerners set foot on our native land. Music was present in every stage of our
ancestors’ lives — from birth to death, in blissful or tragic times. Below are some Music from the different
Regions of our country.
Theatre is a collaborative form of fine art that uses live performers to present the experience of a
real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place. The performers may communicate this
experience to the audience through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, or dance. Some of the
Theater Play in the Philippines are the following.
Dance
Dance, the movement of the body in a rhythmic way, usually to music and within a given space, for
the purpose of expressing an idea or emotion, releasing energy, or simply taking delight in the movement
itself. Dances in the Philippines vary from Region to Region and below are some dances of the different
regions.

Elements and principles of art are being introduced in Module 1: Arts in the Philippines. In module
1, the elements and principles of art is introduced to describe the various contemporary art forms from the
regions of the Philippines generally from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. The elements of art are space, line,
shape and form, color, value, and texture. Meanwhile, the principles of art are proportion, harmony,
variety, movement, rhythm, balance, and emphasis. Now, let’s discuss this elements and principles of
art further.
Elements of Art
1. Line
An element of art that is used to define shape, contours, and outlines, also to suggest mass and
volume. It may be a continuous mark made on a surface with a pointed tool or implied by the edges of
shapes and forms. Line may come in two characteristics: form – curved, dotted, or broken lines; and
direction – vertical, horizontal, or diagonal lines. Different characteristics of lines may convey different
meanings:
a) Horizontal Line creates an impression of serenity and perfect stability.

b) Vertical Line creates an impression of strength and perfect stability.
c) Diagonal Line creates an impression of action.
d) Curved Line creates an impression of gradual change of direction.
e) Circular Line creates an impression of abrupt change of direction.
Moreover, lines can be classified into different types:
a) Outlines are made by the edge of an object or its silhouette.
b) Contour Lines describe the shape of an object and the interior detail.
c) Expressive Lines catch the movement and gestures of an active figure.
d) Sketch Lines capture the appearance of an object or impression of a place.
e) Calligraphic Lines are the elegant handwriting or lettering done by hand.
f) Implied Lines are lines that are not actually drawn but created by a group of
objects seen from a distance.
2. Shape
Shape is an area that is enclosed by a line or lines. Shapes are two dimensional
figures with height and width. There are different kinds of shapes and these are
geometric shapes, organic shapes, positive shapes, negative shapes, static shapes,
and dynamic shapes.
a) Geometric Shapes are circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, and other
geometric shapes.
b) Organic Shapes are shapes found in nature and are free flowing, informal and
irregular (abstract shapes).
c) Positive Shapes are the solid forms in a design.
d) Negative Shapes are the space around the positive shape.
e) Static Shapes are shapes that appears stable and resting.
f) Dynamic Shapes are shapes that appears moving and active.
3. Color
Colors are the way we see light reflected from a surface or refracted through a prism. Colors we
see in nature are reflections of light on the surfaces around us. We can classify colors into primary colors,
secondary colors, tertiary colors, analogous colors, complementary colors, monochromatic colors,
warm colors, and cool colors.
a) Primary colors are red, blue, and yellow.
b) Secondary colors are the resulting colors when the two of the primary colors are mix. The
secondary colors are purple, green, and orange.
c) Tertiary colors are the resulting colors when two of the primary and/or secondary colors are
mix. The tertiary colors are amber, vermilion, magenta, violet, teal, and chartreuse.
d) Analogous Colors are colors that lie nest to each other based on the color wheel. Example of
analogous colors are yellow, orange, and red.
e) Complementary colors are colors that are opposite to each other based on the color wheel.
Examples of complementary colors are red and green, blue and orange, and purple and yellow.
f) Monochromatic Colors are several values of one color.
g) Warm colors are colors that give the feeling of warmth. The warm colors are yellow, amber,
orange, vermilion, red, and magenta.
h) Cool colors are colors that give the feeling of coolness. The cool colors are purple, violet, blue, teal,
green, and chartreuse.
4. Space
Space refers to distances or areas around, between or within components of a piece and refers to
the arrangement of objects on the picture plane (two-dimensional). In visual arts, space may either be
positive space or negative space. Positive space refers to a part which is enclosed in a shape. Meanwhile,
negative space refers to the opposite part which the shape is enclosing. Moreover, perspective is a
technical means by which we perceive distance in painting, by which we are made to see the position of
objects in space.
a) In one-point perspective, we perceive that the position of objects meets at one point on the
horizontal line.
b) In two-point perspective, we perceive that the position of objects meets at two points on the
horizontal line.
5. Texture
Texture is the element that appeals to our sense of feel on things- rough or smooth,
bumpy or slippery. It is the character of the surface of an artwork.
a) Real texture is the actual texture of an object. Artist may create real texture in art
to give it visual interest or evoke a feeling.
b) Implied texture made a piece of art to look like a certain texture. Like a drawing
of a tree trunk may look rough but in fact it is just a smooth piece of paper.
6. Value
Value pertains to the lightness or darkness of a color in a given artwork. Value can be changed by
adding white or black to a color and these described as tint and shade.
a) Tint pertains to the lightness of a color.
b) Shade pertains to the darkness of a color.
7. Form
Form is the three-dimensionality of an object. It has dimensions of height, width, and length.
According to Mader (2019), the elements of art are the visual tools that the artist uses to create a
composition. Consequently, principles of art represent how the artist uses elements of art to create an
effect and convey the artist's intent.
Principles of Art
1. Rhythm
This refers to the repetition of certain elements to produce a pattern.
2. Movement
Movement is the illusion of motion in a painting, sculpture, or design.
3. Balance
Balance refers to the visual weight in a picture. It refers to the even
distribution of positions of elements in an artwork. The principle of balance can
be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
a) Symmetrical balance refers to an artwork wherein its both sides has the
same elements in the same position.
b) Asymmetrical balance refers to an artwork wherein it is balance through
the contrast or differences of any of the elements of art.
4. Proportion
Proportion refers to the relationships of the size of objects in a body of
work.
5. Contrast
This principle shows differences between elements of art in an artwork. It
shows how stronger each element of art in relation to one another.
6. Variety
This principle of art refers to the diversity or the different elements used in an artwork to
make it more interesting.
7. Emphasis
Emphasis refers to the greater impact or highlight given to a certain element in an artwork.
8. Harmony
This principle of art refers to the unity of an artwork. It is about the
arrangement of the related elements that makes an artwork to be viewed as a
whole.
These elements and principles of arts are very important aspects in understanding and appreciating
arts. It helps an artist to make an artistic artwork which conveys their essential ideas or their intent.
However, it is not just served as a help to artists but also to the viewers. Through the elements and
principles of art present in an artwork, viewers will be able to understand, appreciate, and evaluate an
artwork. Hence, we will apply elements and principles of art in evaluating artworks.
Evaluation of Artworks Based on Elements and Principles of Art
This artwork was made by the National Artist of the
Philippines in Visual Arts Hernando Ocampo entitled “Genesis”.
According to Rafhael Piola (2015), “some of the elements that could
be seen in this canvass, in my own opinion, would be lines (curved),
shape (amorphic), light, and color. As for its principles of design and
in my own opinion, some of the principles visible to this canvass would
be variety in terms of its colors, and balance (asymmetrical), emphasis
(focal point). Through the elements and principles that I have seen
through this illustration, personally, I would interpret it as a very
strong yet positive canvass because of its colors. With the color of red,
for me it means that there is passion and dedication that the painter wants me to feel and I could also see a
yellow color meaning happiness and positive vibes. As for its lines, it is curvy yet it is thin meaning it is flowing
in a very calm state…”. This artwork of Hernando Ocampo was also assessed by Ambeth R. Ocampo through
the online platform of Philippine Daily Inquirer. According to Ambeth Ocampo (2013), “with proper
lighting, “Genesis” glows with the intensity of red-hot embers and emanating from its three-dimensional
center are what seem to be claws or tongues of fire reaching out to the viewer”.
Appreciation to this artwork of Hernando Ocampo by the viewers or other artists maybe similar or
maybe different in some aspects. It is based on how they perceive the artwork with the help of elements
and principles of arts or other factors that can influence them to appreciate or understand it.
Overall, elements and principles of art are a must in learning and comprehending arts especially
Philippine arts. Hence, if you are a student engage to arts or have an interest to arts, use these elements
and principles of arts wisely in creating your unique and artistic pieces of art.

LESSON 6: GAWAD SA MANLILIKHA NG BAYAN

Through media people nowadays can easily get to know the different artists in their fields and recognize
these artists from their efforts through award-giving bodies. These artists are the bearers of our culture.
Since the pre-Spanish era, the Philippines are rich in its culture. Ancestors are the living heritage or culture
bearers of this country. They developed these native art forms which portray the significant life of the Filipinos.
People know very little about the art forms that exist up to the present time. These artists are doing what they
value and love to modify and keep the traditional art alive. People can learn from the vast knowledge of these
indigenous people who can live longer not only the techniques to survive but also the distinct identity of being
Filipino.
In this lesson, you will learn about our sixteen (16) National Living Treasures, known as the Gawad sa
Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) awardees from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts or NCCA. The
awardees produce art forms that are woven into everyday life. These show how pre-colonial traditions continue
through to the present time.

LESSON 7: LIVING WITH THE ARTISTS

As you learned in the previous lesson, the Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) or the National Living
Treasures Awards is given by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) to recognize Filipino
artists who have practiced and preserved the customs, beliefs, rituals and traditions of the indigenous
community where they belong. This recognition means that these artists have contributed significant art forms
that are timeless amidst our fast-paced environment and multifaceted culture. Though considered as traditional
arts by origin, the works of the awarded artists are also contemporary for they continue to be observed and
practiced in their community. However, in the middle of the discussion of the former lesson, have you ever asked
yourself what made these arts so important? This module will help you understand and appreciate the value of
these remarkable arts.
“We must recognize and fulfill our duty to stay true to who we are, remember where we came from, and
honor the timelessness of our culture and traditions.” President Rodrigo Roa Duterte remarked in the awarding
of Gawad Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) last 2018.
As the Chief Executive, he believes that preserving the cultural heritage is important to establish our
identity as a Filipino. The preserved customs and traditions are important not only for the people who live in the
indigenous community but also to the Philippine culture and tradition in general.
The following are some of the significant contributions of the artists through their arts.
1. Unique Identity.
Traditional arts reflect our diverse heritage and cultural traditions. This is evident in all arts
created by the artists who receive the GAMABA award. One of these arts is weaving. Though weaving has
long been part of our traditions, the use of different materials and the different tedious process make each
art unique.
Haja Amina Appi of Ungos Matata, Tawi-Tawi shows how pandan can be weaved into mats with
vibrant colors, beautiful geometric designs and fine symmetry. These mats are usually used by their
people for prayer or as a gift to the newly-weds.
In Luzon, weaving is preserved through Magdalena Gamayo who used traditional patterns. Her
work is marked by her ability to replicate designs with excellence and consistency.
Another artwork of the same kind is t’nalak (a fine abaca cloth) by Lang Dulay of Lake Sebu, South
Cotabato. She worked on traditional designs like bulinglangit (clouds), kabangi (butterfly), crocodiles,
and flowers.
As you can see, though these artists worked on the same art (weaving), their artworks in their
community is still uniquely created showing the identity of their community (Estrella, 2020).
2. Exemplary Skills.
The artwork of Eduardo Mutuc from Pampanga shows how his skills developed from being a
farmer to one of the furniture carvers. To earn an income, he really practiced his skills and became one of
the most respected creators of religious and secular arts today. He was awarded in 2004 for his detailed
and lifelike pieces of varying sizes: altars, mirrors, retablos, and carosas made with wood, silver, and
bronze.
Uwang Ahadas, on the other hand, shows his exemplary skill in music. At a young age, he learned
to play music with his siblings. Though kwintangan was usually played by a woman, he mastered playing
it. It is made of logs used to call abundant harvest of grains.
Another musician who has shown superb skills is musician Samaon Sulaiman who was a master
of the kutyapi, a two-stringed lute. He was also proficient in playing other instruments such as the
kulintang, agong (a suspended gong with a wide rim), gandingan (agong with a narrow rim), and tambul.
3. Way of Life
Alonzo Saclag of Lubuagan, Kalinga mastered local musical instruments, along with dance
patterns associated with rituals. These performances are performed during celebrations or communal
agreement such as peace pacts. To pass this tradition, Saclag took a formal education reaching radio
stations and creating Kalinga Budong Dance Troupe.
Hearing the tales as told by his mother, epic chanter Federico Caballero of Calinog, Iloilo learned
Suguidanon, a Central Panay epic. Though Central Panay is located in the mountains, the epic tells about
characters and settings that reflect that his people might have lived once in seashores in the past. Also,
this epic was usually chanted by a binukot, a woman of high status. Regardless of education and social
status, women were not given authority. Instead, they were trained for embroidery and memorization of
epic. Caballero is known to keep the local oral traditions through his chants (Gowey, 2016).
4. Enduring Values
Values are usually reflected in literary arts such as poem. Thus, the Mangyan script is one of the
four remaining syllabic scripts in the country which was preserved through Ginaw Bilog of Mansalay,
Oriental Mindoro. He was most popular in writing ambahan (a metaphoric poem comprising seven-
syllable lines) on traditionally used bamboo tubes. His poems about advising the young, bidding a friend
goodbye, and asking for a place to stay show how Filipinos express their affection to their family and
friends.
Values is not only reflected in the art product but also on the process in which it is created. In
textile weaving, we can see the artists’ dedication to their work as they intricately put different elements
of arts such as color, harmony and shape to create a distinct and vibrant 3 design. Spirituality is also
evident among Filipino artists as they use subjects related to their faith such as the textile designs by
Darhata Sawabi of Sulu and carvings by Eduardo Mutuc.
There are countless values that are reflected on the artists’ work but one thing that is evident to
their works is their unselfish desire to share their knowledge and skills to the next generations to enjoy
and to see as part of their beings as Filipinos.
5. Vision.
The traditional art shows the artist’s vision. Moreover, it also inspires us to make the existing art
as an inspiration to enhance the art or create our own artwork. Teofilo Garcia is a gourd hatmaker from
San Quintin, Abra. Since he is a farmer, he sees the need of gourd casques. He used the tabungaw (gourd)
plant for useful protective hats to help the farmers overcome heat during farming. Because the hat was
made creatively and finely, he joined a festival to show his artwork. Who would have thought that a simple
hat to help our farmers would soon become a recognized art? He did.
Also, Salinta Monon, a respected textile weaver from Davao Del Sur, isolated herself from her
family for months to finish her art. She once dreamt of establishing the art through teaching new would-
be weavers.
In conclusion, the artworks of our GAMABA awardees are indeed living treasures. Their arts do
not only express an idea or feelings but they also carry significant contributions that are imbibed through
generations. and inspired the contemporary arts that we use and see today.

Relate the significance of contemporary art forms from the Philippine Regions. (CAR11/12 CAP-0c-e-8).

LESSON 8: PROMOTIONS OF ARTA FORM FROM THE REGIONS

The traditional and contemporary artists’ mode of production continues to be affected with the dynamics
of change in the environment. Nonetheless, environment is considered of its utmost importance – this is where
resources are gathered and shared, and where culture is performed. So, let’s recognize some factors that affect
the traditional or contemporary artist’s production process.
THE PRODUCTION PROCESS AND THE CHANGING ENVIRONMENT

1) Tourism
Land areas are converted into sites for tourist consumption. In this situation, ecological domains
may become more vulnerable to damage with the combined forces of natural disasters and tourist
mobility. Moreover, tourist mobility might influence the community’s observance of tradition and tend to
diminish the quality of native art forms. Removed from their original context, the works are transformed
into mass produced souvenirs in order to meet the demands of the tourist trade. Neon colors and designs
woven from synthetic fibers have been made available in recent years to create appropriations of
traditional textile designs for commercial purposes.
2) Militarization
The insecurity and tensions brought about by militarized zones apprehend the people’s ability to
create art. It prevents people from having communal gatherings, where exchanges and passing of
knowledge can take place.
3) Christianization
The influence of Christianity and the conversion of the natives to a foreign religion have affect the
preservation of their indigenous rituals and traditions. However, in some cases, the community finds a
way to harmonize their indigenous ways with traditions of Christianity. For example, the Manobo
community of Mt. Apo initiated a “culture regeneration movement.” As Christian converts, they sought
the revival of their traditions by holding clan reunions, employing native wedding rites, and recalling
narratives of their culture through painting.
These factors that affect the tradition and contemporary art production process of Philippine
artists are given an effort to solve and address by the different institutions that support and promote art.
It is important to know these institutions, museums, galleries, and organizations in order to know the
authorities of art in the Philippines that we can look to when intending to learn more about our country’s
rich culture and art.
SUPPORT SYSTEMS OF PHILIPPINE ART

There are several established authorities, institutions, markets, galleries, and award-giving bodies that
supervise the protection, promotion and nurturing of culture and art and that establish the support systems of
arts in the Philippines. These authorities, institutions, markets, galleries, and award-giving bodies make sure
that traditions involving art and culture are kept alive despite of modernization and technological advancements,
set the standards for the different forms of arts, exhibit objects of cultural and artistic interest, financially
supported visual artists, recognizing outstanding art making, and teach and nurture artistic skills and knowledge
of Filipino about culture and art. Hence, below are some authorities, institutions, markets, galleries, and award-
giving bodies in the promotion of Philippine arts:
1) National Commission for Culture and the Arts
The National Commission for Culture and the Arts is the overall policy making body, coordinating,
and grants giving agency for the preservation, development and promotion of Philippine arts and culture;
and an executing agency for the policies it formulates (Dumandan, 2019).
2) Cultural Center of the Philippines
The mission of the Cultural Center of the Philippines is the leading institution for the arts and
culture in the Philippines by promoting artistic excellence and nurturing the broadest publics to
participate in art making and appreciation (Dumandan, 2019).
3) National Museum
The National Museum is an educational, scientific, and cultural institution that acquires,
documents, preserves, exhibits, and fosters scholarly study and public appreciation of works of art,
specimens, and cultural and historical artifacts representative of the unique cultural heritage of the
Filipino people and the natural history of the Philippines (Dumandan, 2019).
4) Metropolitan Museum of the Philippines
The Metropolitan Museum of Manila is one of the major museums in the Philippines. The museum
was among the first to develop and extend its audience by embracing the philosophy of art for all, adopt
a bilingual approach in exhibition texts, and implement a vigorous education and community outreach
program. The museum seeks to amplify the Filipinos' sense of artistic and cultural heritage from the past
and in contemporary global contexts and experiences (Dumandan, 2019).
5) Ben Cab Museum
The BenCab Museum houses the permanent collection of Philippine National Artist Benedicto
Cabrera (BenCab) in several galleries, as well as venues for art shows and exhibitions. The Bencab
Museum is committed to the promotion of arts, and the preservation, conservation and protection of the
environment and culture and traditions of the Cordilleras. This commitment of the museum is an
expression of the artist’s gratitude to the country that nurtured and inspired an artistic career that
continues to grow, mature, and fascinate (Dumandan, 2019).
6) Art Fair Philippines
Art Fair Philippines is the premier platform for exhibiting and selling the best in modern and
contemporary Philippine visual art. The fair aims to mirror the vibrant local art scene and continue to
generate support for Filipino art practitioners (Dumandan, 2019).
7) ManilART
ManilART is the Philippines' premier international art fair. It showcases the best in contemporary
visual arts for the development and promotion of Filipino art and culture locally and internationally.
ManilART elevates the standards and celebrates the dynamic Philippine art scene through various art
exhibitions connecting world class artists, institutions, and the community. It reinforces the awareness
of and the appreciation for Philippine visual arts by merging it with other disciplines through lectures,
workshops, demonstrations, and other activities with the support from both local and foreign exhibitors
(Dumandan, 2019).
8) Finale Art File
Finale Art File is considered as a premier gallery institution in the Philippines. It showcased
hundreds of exhibits by some of the most talented names in contemporary visual arts. It has successfully
balanced the demands of a commercial establishment and an artistic venue. This gallery occasionally
features experimental works that push artistic boundaries and challenge audience expectation
(Dumandan, 2019).
9) Kublai Art Gallery and Davao Contemporary Art Gallery
The Kublai Art Gallery and Davao Contemporary Art Gallery is a unique cultural expression of
Davao’s visual artists. The gallery showcases various works by Mindanao’s famed artist Kublai Ponce-
Millan, as well as different artists from the city (Dumandan, 2019).
10) Thirteen Artists Awards
The Thirteen Artists Awards mark the turnings in and of Philippine contemporary art, to update
its modernizing potential and to assess how artists today engage with other forces in the art world
(Dumandan, 2019).
These authorities, institutions, markets, galleries, and award-giving bodies are not the only ones
who may promote arts of the Philippines. As a Filipino and a student, we can also promote Philippine arts
in our own little ways. We may visit art exhibits and seminars about the artistic treasures of the
Philippines. We may share the artworks of Philippine artists through our social media. Also, appreciating
Philippines arts in its original context and using it in defining and describing Filipino identity are also
ways to promote arts existed in our country. There are different ways to promote or support Philippine
traditional and cultural arts and these ways root in our nationalistic and patriotic ideology. Hence, as a
student in this contemporary time, it is a great act to contribute in holding a responsibility of promoting
Philippine arts.

B. Common Techniques in Contemporary Arts

There are three techniques that are commonly used today in contemporary arts today.
1. Minimalism. This is an artistic movement that seeks to take away unnecessary and leaving only the
essential. The artworks that usually use this technique use a well selected material that is indispensable
in art production.
2. Found Objects. This means taking something that people seem to find useless and use it in a unique way
in order to make an artwork. When people seem to think that something must be thrown away as junk, it
is used to tell a story and create a diverse perspective that we are looking for.
3. Large-Scale Art. This is an art that accounts for the creation of something huge to express diverse
perspectives in artwork. This art is created for public view.
II. Medium Used in Contemporary Art Forms
Often, artists will most likely use materials available to them. This means that the resources their
locality have is important for their art. The “local” can refer to material that is easily available in the
community. It can be any materials such as woods, materials, paper that are easily produced and available
in the community. The local can also refer to wherever the artist finds himself or herself.
In discussing the use of materials, it is important to discuss medium. A medium is defined as the
material or substance used to create an artwork. Using these materials, the artists express his feelings or
thoughts. The medium used in each artwork varies based on the artists and their art forms.
