De Leon Jr., a professor of art studies and the former chair of National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), Filipino integral arts has the following attributes:  Filipino Art Tendencies  Broadest aspect technique  Multiple focal points  Highly expressive  Polychromatic  Minimalism  Multifunctional  Rhythmic Patterns  Broadest aspect technique o Filipino artworks often try to show the many sides of an object, depicting how Filipinos think it looks like rather than how it is actually seen. This is how many artist often orient objects showing the biggest and the most familiar angle of an object for greater recognition  Multiple focal points o Related to the first tendency, many artist use multiple focal points in their composition in efforts to try to represent the sentiments of the different members of society. This tendency can be clearly seen in the works of late cartoonist Larry Alcala (1926-2002), whose works show multiple scenes and events at one point in time.  Highly expressive o Being born in a very social environment, Filipinos are more emphatic, spontaneous, and emotional. This tendency holds especially true for the performing arts, where Filipinos excel. In the visual arts this is carried over through the colorful artworks.  Polychromatic o Filipinos love colorful, decorative arts and crafts. This is why costumes and festival are bathed in rich, vibrant spectrum of colors.  Maximalism o Filipino art has an inclination to fill up space with forms and ornamentation. This is said to be rooted in the expressiveness of the Filipinos. A good example of the Filipinos proclivity to decorate can be seen in the public transport vehicle, the jeepney. Decorations that range from airbrushed portraits t scenic landscapes fill up the inside and exterior of the “dyip”.  Multifunctional o Creating works that have various uses strengthens the sense of community with people of different fascination and requirements. This is one of the given reasons as to the popularity of mixed media and installations and media are often combined with indigenous materials and local objects.  Rhythmic patterns o One of the most recognizable tendencies in Filipino art is the stylized and measured organization of patterns and forms. It is almost like the physical manifestation of the Filipino artists’ psyche, individually present and different but in harmonious movement with the rest of the forms. Contemporary Art It is not restricted to individual experience but it is reflective of the world we live in. Events in the world having effect to the Philippines. 28 Characteristics of Contemporary Art  Integrative  Process-based  Site-specific  Collaborative  Interactive 29 Integrativ e▪ the artist is free to integrate any medium or to conform any art form or style in order to express their artistic intention, without being limited to conform to a stylistic trend in order to be called contemporary. Process-based ▪ It emphasizes on how the artist starts not with a final product in mind, but instead begins with the development of a concept and then subsequently proceeds with realizing the idea. 30 Site-Specific ▪ it allows for an artwork’s meaning to have a direct relationship to a specific location where it is seen or experienced. ▪ Example: Graffiti artwork as seen in the street vs. graffiti artwork seen in the museum Collaborative ▪ wherein the end product is created with the involvement of two or more artist. Interactiv e ▪ it recognizes how the audience has the potential to change or add the meaning of an artwork. 31 Resources/ Links ▪ https://www.google.com/search?biw=1242&bih=635&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=xs0lW_iVMZna8wXeuKvADg&q=examples+of+drawin g+art+form&oq=exam ▪ https://www.google.com/search? biw=1242&bih=635&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=TswlW8zeFsiS8wXM95KwDA&q=examples+of+prints&oq=examples+of+prints&gs_l=i mg.3..0j0i8i30k1l3.371925.373143.0.375172.6.6.0.0.0.0.164.725.0j5.5.0....0...1c.1.64.img..1.5.721...0i67k1.0.wid7rgCKbKA#img rc=icTBjMlRn9sfwM: ▪ https://www.google.com/search? biw=1242&bih=635&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=xs0lW_iVMZna8wXeuKvADg&q=examples+of+photograph+art+form&oq=examples+ of+photograph+art+form&gs_l=img.3...178168.188756.0.189516.20.20.0.0.0.0.182.2145.0j17.17.0....0...1c.1.64.img..3.0.0....0.
