Lesson 1 Local Materials Used in Contemporary Arts

What I Have Learned

Part 2: Short Answer Test

1. Using locally available resources for art help in the preservation of

environment. A significant and practical aspects of art is material
significance. The items used by artists while making an art piece affects
both the form and the material. Every material delivers something
special in the creative process.

2. One of the most fundamental and practical aspects of art is the

importance of materials. The stuff that artists use when they make a
work of art influences both form and content. Every material brings
something special to the creative process and the finished work.

3. Living in Imus Cavite, it is common to find recyclable materials as

resources which can be turned to art. The following are examples of
recyclable materials that can be converted to art.

Explanation:

Plastic Bottle Caps - these can be collected, painted, and designed to

create representations of animals and other nature elements to form a
mural.

Toilet Roll - we can save up toilet rolls and use them as bird feeders by
painting half of it with peanut butter then roll the painted part in seeds.
Tie it with a string, then hang outside and wait for the birds to get
attracted to the hanging roll. It's both artistic and useful.

Used 1.5-liter Soda Bottles - Just like toilet roll, used plastic soda bottles
can be both artistic and functional.  We can collect these bottles
together, paint and tightly tie them up to create a circle (the bigger the
diameter, the better), stack them bottom up, paste foam for desired
softness, cover with use textile to create an ottoman.  Used soda bottle
can also be cut in half, painted, filled with soil and plant of choice, tie
with strings to form hanging plant container.

Activity 1:

Traditional  Art

Traditional art techniques, such as traditional painting and sketching

approaches, were among the techniques used.

Wood, and Resin are the materials commonly used in contemporary

Traditional  Art

The seven types of fine arts are considered traditional art forms.
Drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, cinema, music, and theatre
are examples of fine arts. The majority of these classic forms of art can
now be recreated digitally or through other means. Traditional art,
which has been passed down through the years, provides a shared
experience for the entire community. Because these art forms
incorporate values, cultural practices, and belief systems, they
frequently serve as a common language through which the various
communities that makeup society can communicate.

Contemporary Art

Contemporary art is art created in the second part of the twentieth

century or the twenty-first century. Contemporary artists operate in a
world that is increasingly globalized, culturally varied, and
technologically advanced. Their work is a dynamic mix of materials,
methods, thoughts, and subjects that continue a tradition of pushing
boundaries that began in the twentieth century. Contemporary art,
which is diverse and eclectic, is characterized by the lack of a unified
organizing principle, ideology, or "-ism." Contemporary art is part of a
broader cultural conversation about things like personal. And also
in cultural identity, family, community, and nationality.

Technique

refers to how a musician, writer, dancer, athlete, or other creative

person uses their technical abilities to attain a specific purpose. In
contrast to a generic process, any method or procedure is utilized in a
specific field. An artist's technique and style are crucial. A signature
identifies the artist who created a painting (name of artist here). As a
result, we've created a body of work that is cohesive. It's not necessary
to apply a consistent technique all of the time.

Materials

Things are constructed from materials. Smooth or rough, hard or soft,

heavy or light, brittle or indestructible, materials come in a variety of
properties. Materials are chosen by artists for their unique qualities.
The same material can be utilized in a variety of ways to achieve a
variety of outcomes.

Picture Downloaded

Contemporary art is often looked at with a skeptical eye. The truth

about contemporary art is that it uses techniques that most people
aren’t quite used to, causing that skepticism to come into play.
However, these techniques are actually quite difficult and all deserve
our credit. It’s an incredible feat to create a piece of contemporary art,
especially using these techniques. They challenge the mind and offer
unique perspectives in a way that art has never been able to do before.
For that reason, they’re some of the most valuable techniques that a
person can experience through artwork. Here are three techniques that
are among the most relevant in contemporary art today.

1. MINIMALISM

One of the artistic movements that has been most relevant throughout
the contemporary art movement is minimalism. Minimalism seeks to
take away what’s unnecessary and leaving only what’s essential.
Minimalism is incredibly difficult and has even made its way into being
a huge part of branding and design for companies all over the world.
This is probably the most important part of contemporary art, as it has
informed so much of society. Have you noticed that branding has
gotten more minimalist over the past ten years or so? You can thank
the contemporary art movement for doing that.
2. FOUND OBJECTS

Taking something that people view as useless, and then using it in a

unique way in order to make artwork is one of the most important
movements that currently exist in contemporary artwork. The idea is
that things that we often view as junk are actually more valuable than
we think that they are. Everything you find can be used to tell a story,
or to create new diverse perspectives that we’re looking for when we
attend an art exhibitions. The found objects movement is one of the
most important movements in all of contemporary art currently.

3. LARGE-SCALE ART

Walter De Maria created an art piece in 1977 that included a four

hundred steel poles over one mile by one kilometer. That’s incredible.
Creating something huge to express diverse perspectives in artwork is
incredibly popular, even today. Over the past forty years, large scale
art, and art that includes the environment has come into its own as one
of the most important movements within contemporary art. That’s why
you often see modern art pieces alongside buildings, or as huge
structures out in the open.

CONTEMPORARY ARTWORK RELIES ON CERTAIN TECHNIQUES

With every new age of art, there are new unique techniques that define
how the movement develops. For contemporary art, among many
techniques, you can find techniques such as minimalism, found objects,
and large scale paintings. Each of these bring their own unique
perspective into the artistic community, and each is valued as a pick for
a technique that is most influential in contemporary art. Look out for
these when you’re out at an exhibition next, you’ll find that they’re
much more relevant than you perhaps think that they are.
