WHAT’S MORE (ACTIVITY 3)

Have you ever wondered about the difference between modern and contemporary art? Or wondered if
there even is a difference between the two? Well, first of all, the two terms are not interchangeable.
There is a difference, and it is based on rough date ranges established by art historians, art critics,
curators, art institutions, and the like, who recognized a distinct shift that took place, marking the end of
Modernism and the beginning of the contemporary age. Modern art is that which was created
sometime between the 1860s (some say the 1880s) and the late 1960s (some say only through the
1950s). Art made thereafter (e.g., conceptual, minimalist, postmodern, feminist) is considered
contemporary.

Beyond the time frames, there are conceptual and aesthetic differences between the two phases. Art
was called “modern” because it did not build on what came before it or rely on the teachings of the art
academies. Many art historians, notably art critic Clement Greenberg, consider Édouard Manet to have
been the first modern artist not only because he was depicting scenes of modern life but also because
he broke with tradition when he made no attempt to mimic the real world by way of perspective tricks.
He, instead, drew attention to the fact that his work of art was simply paint on a flat canvas and that it
was made by using a paint brush, a paint brush that sometimes left its mark on the surface of the
composition. While this shocked audiences and critics, it inspired his peers and the next several
generations of artists, each of which, whether in abstract works or representational, experimented with

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

1. GAMABA stands for Gawad ng manlilikha ng bayan, the very purpose of this award is to give honor
and pride to those traditional folk artist and to preserve their works, skills and crafts.

2. Traditional forms and expressions do not normally end up as objects distanced from everyday living.
The dissemination of distinct traditional information is only limited to those within the community. For
example, hat making is considered traditional but if someone practices it today and integrates some
modern techniques, then it is considered contemporary. Base from the given example, long-standing
established practices had always been contemporary in a sense that these arts are being made now as
part of continuing performance of tradition. Thus, traditional can become contemporary and
contemporary becomes traditional with relative to time.

3. As a senior high school student I consider myself as a contemporary artist because I am also a part of
modern generation or known for 21st century in where technology is being used to create artworks.
