knowledge about what the contemporary Filipino artists do or did, and why and how they do
or have done it. In doing so, you get to develop appreciation and gratitude for their artistic
endeavors. Today, most Filipino contemporary artists still deal with current concerns that

They acknowledge their Filipino roots by using native and indigenous materials in their
artwork which show a growing sense of pride in being Filipino.

1. Self-taught and do not require a formal education.

2. Dynamic combination of materials, methods, concepts, and subjects that challenges


traditional boundaries and defies easy definition.

3. Diverse and eclectic, contemporary art is distinguished by the very lack of a uniform
organizing principle and ideology. Originality is not an issue in contemporary art.

4. Audiences play an active role in the process of constructing meaning about works of art.
There is no singular or simple way to define contemporary art.

Based on its characteristics, Contemporary Art is a statement or expression that an artist


makes about life, thoughts, ideas, beliefs, and many other things that define human life. It
can also be defined as a modern form of art, or an art of the present time. Contemporary art
is the art of today. Because art is produced by people and people are influenced by time,
contemporary art is a continuing practice that has evolved with the following new elements
or principles:

1. Appropriation- When you see a T-shirts with the image of Jose Rizal wearing shades or
the walls of Intramuros in canvass bags, existing artworks are” appropriated” to form another
artwork. The use of these prints, images, and icons to produce another art form is a feature
of contemporary art that combines the past with the present. By appropriation, the
contemporary artist revives interest to existing forms of art.

2. Performance- Performance of contemporary artists has evolved to emphasize


spontaneous unpredictable elements of chance. Performance artists have tried to interpret
various human activities, from ordinary activities such as chores, routines, and rituals, to
socially relevant themes such as poverty, commercialism, and war.

3. Space- How art transforms a space is now an occupation of contemporary artists. Flash
mob or sculpture installations in malls and parks are examples of site-specific art forms
wherein the artform is performed and positioned in specific spots, especially in public places.

4. Hybridity- Contemporary artists are now as innovative as ever. In traditional painting only
a few materials are of conventional use. Contemporary visual artists, on the other hand, may
opt to use coffee or painting or carve miniature sculptures using crayons. Hybridity is
contemporary art is the mixing of unlikely materials to produce an artwork.2

5.Technology-Technology is a reality in the present-day world, and contemporary artists


have used technology in the creation and dissemination of works of art. When MTV first

went into the airwaves in 1981, video became part of the human interaction. The video
phenomenon was further pushed by the debut of the You Tube that allowed everyone with
Internet Connection to post and share videos. Contemporary artists have used video and the
Internet as a way of propagating art.

6. Subject Matter for Contemporary Art- Subject matter in contemporary art is not confined to
representations of human figures and landscapes. Favorite subjects are children, women,
environment or a combination of any of these. In some, subject matter is the technique itself
and sometimes the viewer has to think and explore the meaning of the artwork. Some
artworks are intended to make a statement about an issue so the viewer is guided by a
written explanation.

Styles of Contemporary Art (Samples are in separate bond papers)

There were art movements and styles that dominated contemporary art through the decades
since 1950’s, and these are the following:

1. ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM - a painting style in which the artist applies paint in a


manner that expresses emotions and feelings in a spontaneous way. Figures may be heavy
in lines and color without solid mass

2. KINETIC ART - a sculpture that moves with the wind or is powered by a machine or
electricity.

3. OP ART - uses lines or images repeatedly to create an optical illusion.

4. PERFORMANCE ART - combines a variety of media and the human body to execute an
artistic theatrical expression before a live audience.

5. ENVIRONMENT ART - involves the artistic creation or manipulation of space


such as landscape or architectural design that may enclose its audience. Earth works or
arts using stones, leaves, trees, grass or other natural elements are included in this category.

6. FEMINIST ART - emerged from concerns of female artists expressed through art. Tackles
issues of identity, sexuality, gender roles, equality, and ways female is treated in a society.

7. MINIMALISM - had a stripped-down, prefabricated look, free of details and often with flat
surface but expresses a specific content or statement.

8. VIDEO ART - consists of images that are recorded through a video and viewed through
television, computer, or projection screen.

idea through a mix of materials such as found objects welded together.

11. BODY ART - an art form that uses the body as the medium or main material. It can be
painted or clothed and used to perform artistic act in public.

12. DIGITAL ART - done with the aid of computer to create an image or design composed of
bits and bytes. The image can be printed on paper, tarpaulin, or other mediums.

Materials for Contemporary Art

Contemporary artists salvage materials that can be recycled and made into creative forms.
They can make artworks that combine structure and wood and interact with the wind to make
music. They combine various objects to create a metaphor of everyday human life and
depict issues of identity, journey, migration and displacement. Some artists combine
indigenous materials with textile and mount these on a painted flat surface. Paper as an art
medium is also explored. In outdoor sculpture, they used brass welded together and
mounted on concrete surfaces.

Wood and glass are used for indoor sculpture. Found objects are combined and covered
with resin.

Painting is no longer confined to canvas hung on the wall. They can also be found on
ceilings and floors, and some are done outdoors. Painting murals on walls to make a more
pleasant environment and raise consciousness towards environmental protection are now
encouraged.

In architecture, there is an extensive use of glass and steel. Color combination is either
complementary or strong contrasting, such as orange and blue, red and white. Over the
years, malls, buildings, business centers, convention centers are created artistically.

In performance art, artists use variety of props such as rope, plastic, textile, and different
found objects.

Technology also redefined art in many ways. Examples are light structures and floor
drawings using laser beams and smoke, hanging tubes or pipes that respond to movement,
sound or touch, and other software programs that create patterns and designs. Many
contemporary artists do not have formal studies in fine arts but are self-taught. They study
