1898- 1946

ABRAHAM MASLOW is an American psychologist

ilan sa mga natatanging nilikha nya po ay yung

Maslow's hierarchy of needs, yung five-tier model of human needs

a theory of psychological health predicated on fulfilling innate human needs in priority,

culminating in self-actualization

A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace
with himself

So this quote simply means self actualization or the desire for self-fulfillment. Yung sabi po ditto sa
quote na he is to ultimately at peace with himself

ibig sabihin po once narealize ng isang tao yung potential nya, ang next step po nun is full development
of one's abilities, syempre kapag magaling ka sa isang bagay or naidetify mo yung talent mo dapat lang
na iimproved mo pa yung skills mo and then by doing so, it leads to appreciation for life

So konting review muna tayo sa Philippine history during American colonial times

The 1896 Philippine Revolution paved the way to the country's independence from Spain. Yun nga lang
po short-lived lang yung naging Kalayaan ng pilipinas kase yung mga amerikano naman yung sumako
sa bansa. Ang naging main goal ng America ay gawing self-sufficient capitalistic democracratic country
yung pilipinas.

Tumagal ng 48 years yung pananakop ng amerika, from cession of the Philippines to the U.S. by Spain in
1898 to U.S. recognition of Philippine independence in 1946. Again that’s

Since may bagong mananakop, nagbago din po yung art patronage, So what do we mean by art
patronage? this is a person who pays for or commissions works of art. Kumbaga sila yung cliyente, sila
yung nagpapagawa, nagbabayad, saka sumusuporta sa mga artists. Kung dati mga native ilustrado yung
naging art patronage ngayon naging americano na. Yung mga bagong americanong patrons tulad ng
tourists saka foreign investors mas gusto nila yung subject ng art ay landscapes, still life, and genre
themes that show the beauty of the land and its people. Kaya po mapapansin natin yung arts produced
during American colonization ay puro depiction ng landscapes.

Aside from that, portraits were still favored by the public officials, and depicting them in dignified poses.

American Colonization brought high influence to our country, tulad nung English diba naging second
language natin yon, and Malaki din yung pagbabago at inpluwensyang dinala nila sa ating kultura. lalo na
po sa major Filipino art forms: yung architecture, paintings and sculptures which will then be elaborated
later.
