Philippines, arts are for ritual purposes or for everyday
use. Art of the ancient Filipinos were woven into the fabric
of everyday life. They do not refer to art as
we do today. That is, as an expression of an individual,
and seen largely in galleries and concert halls. They do not
distinguish forms into different categories like music,
theater, visual arts, etc.

away from the concrete object, in other words away from
human forms and nature” toward the contemplation of the
divine”
III. SPANISH ERA
(1521 – 1898)
During this period, cruciform churches following
the shape of the latin cross were built. In keeping with the
prevailing, they were characterized by grandeur, drama,
and elaborate details that purposely appealed to the
emotions. The use of adobe, limestone or brick and the
construction of thick buttresses or wing like projections
reinforce the church structure to make it more resistant to
earthquake

Americans favored idyllic sceneries and secular forms of
arts. Because the lingua franca of this period was English,

language. Unlike, the Spanish, the Americans passionate
thought their language through an efficient public school
system.

Since the Japanese advocated for the culture of
East Asia, preference was given to the indigenous art
and traditions of the Philippines. This emphasized
their propaganda in Asia. Under the Japanese
occupation of Manila, the Modern Art Project would
slowdown in pace. Early moderns and conservatives
alike continued to produce art and even participated in

LESSON 6: Contemporary Art Forms Based on the


Elements and Principles

Elements and Principles of Contemporary Arts

1. Appropriation- It is the process of making new


content by taking from another source pre-existing image
books on art history, ads, the media and incorporating or
combining
it with new ones.
2. Performance art - is another element of
contemporary art which regularly increases drama, often
acting and development to extremes of expression and
continuity that are not allowed within the theater. It
interprets various human activities such as ordinary
activities such as chores, routines, and rituals, to socially
relevant themes such as poverty,
commercialism, and war.
3. Space -is an art transforming space, for example the
flash mobs, and art installations in malls and parks. It also
refers to the distances or areas surrounding, within, and
within the components of an item. Space can be either
positive or negative, open, or closed, shallow or deep, and
two-or three-dimensional. Often space is not clearly
shown in a piece, but it is an illusion. It is considered as
the breath of art. Space is found in almost every piece of
art that has been made.
4. Hybridity- is another element and principle used by
contemporary artist in their artworks. It is a usage
of unconventional materials, mixing of unlikely materials
to produce and artwork. For example, coffee
for painting, miniature sculptures from pencils.
5. Technology art- refers to the use of mass production
and the manipulation of the virtual world, its tools, and
programs.
