Elements and Principles of Contemporary Arts

A. Appropriation. It is the process of making new content by taking from another source pre-existing image —
books on art history, ads, the media — and incorporating or combining it with new ones. Appropriation is a three-
dimensional variant of using found objects in painting. To appropriate is to borrow. A found object is an actual object—
often a manufactured product of a commonplace nature — given a new identity as an artwork or part of an art piece.

Appropriate imagery can be photographically or

carefully imitated, reproduced by mechanical infers such as
an overhead projector, joined of the time re- create an
address or repaint it, changing its scale or design to make
unused meaning. Experts can as well compare differing
pictures or objects, layer them with other pictures, break them
into parts, or contextualize them, with recommends to
reconsider pictures or objects by a setting them in a cutting-
edge setting.
Appropriation refers to the act of borrowing or reusing
existing components inside a modern work. Postmodern
apportionment craftsmen, counting Barbara Kruger, are
sharp to deny the idea of creativity. They accept that in
borrowing existing symbolism or components of symbolism,
they are re- contextualizing or appropriating the first
symbolism, permitting the audience to renegotiate the
meaning of the initial in distinctive, more important, or more
current. Images and elements of culture that have been
appropriated commonly involve famous and recognizable
works of art, well known literature, and easily accessible
images from the media. The first artist to successfully
demonstrate forms of appropriation within his or her work is
widely considered to be Marcel Duchamp. He devised the concept of the ‘readymade’, which essentially involved an

item being chosen by the artist, signed by the artist and repositioned into a gallery context. By asking the viewer to
consider the object as art, Duchamp was appropriating it. For Duchamp, the work of the artist was in selecting the object

B. Performance art is another element of contemporary art which regularly increases drama, often acting and
development to extremes of expression and continuity that are not allowed within the theater. It interprets various human
activities such as ordinary activities such as chores, routines, and rituals, to socially relevant themes such as poverty,
commercialism, and war.
Performance art refers to art activities that are presented to a live audience and can combine music, dance,
poetry, theater, visual art and video. Whether public, private or videotaped, performance art often involves an artist
performing an action that can be planned and scripted, or can emphasize spontaneous, unpredictable elements of
chance. Various types of performance art have evolved from simple, often private investigations of everyday routines,
rituals, and endurance tests, to larger-scale site-specific environments and public projects, multimedia productions, and
autobiographical cabaret-style solo work. Below are example of performative art emphasizing the different characteristics
of performance art such as spontaneous and one-off, or rehearsed and series based. It may consist of a small-scale event,
or a massive public spectacle.

C. Space is an art transforming space, for example the flash mobs, and art installations in malls and parks. It also
refers to the distances or areas surrounding, within, and within the components of an item. Space can be either positive or
negative, open or closed, shallow or deep, and two-or three-dimensional. Often space is not clearly shown in a piece, but
it is an illusion. It is considered as the breath of art. Space is
found in almost every piece of art that has been made.
Photographers capture space, sculptors depend on space and
shape, and architects create space. This is a central aspect of
every of the visual arts.
Space provides the audience a guide for the
presentation of an artwork. For example, you can draw a larger
object than another to suggest that it is closer to the viewer.
Likewise, a piece of environmental art can be installed in a way
that leads the viewer through space.

Negative and Positive Space

Art historians use the term positive space to refer to the subject
of the piece itself—the flower vase in a painting or the structure
of a sculpture. Negative space refers to the empty spaces the
artist has created around, between, and within the subjects.
Quite often, we think of positive as being light and negative as being dark. This does not necessarily apply to every piece
of art. For example, you might paint a black cup on a white canvas. We wouldn't necessarily call the cup negative
because. it is the subject: The black value is negative, but the space of the cup is positive. In three-dimensional art, the
negative spaces are typically the open or relatively empty parts of the piece. For example, a metal sculpture may have a
hole in the middle, which we would call the negative space. In two-dimensional art, negative space can have a great
impact. (https://www.thoughtco.com/definition-of-space-in-art-182464)
Below is an example of item specific art form that is performed and positioned in a specific space such as public places.

 As what you have learned above contemporary artists used various mediums and techniques, applied different
elements and principles in their artworks such as space, appropriation, and performance. But since we are immersed in a
hybridized environment of reality and augmented reality daily.

Many artists working today incorporates more than material or technique in ways that create hybrid art forms.
Combinations of still image, moving image, sound, digital media, and found objects can create new hybrid art forms that
are beyond what traditional artists have ever imagined. Hybridity is another element and principle used by contemporary
artist in their artworks. It is a usage of unconventional materials, mixing of unlikely materials to produce and artwork. For
example, coffee for painting, miniature sculptures from pencils.

Hybridity, at the most basic level, implies the mixing of two or more elements to create a third. Beyond this there is
some discussion as to what cultural hybridity means. How could this idea transfer when we use the term hybridity to
describe contemporary art? What do artists use to make art? This hybridity in art practice is about transcendence, beyond
the visual logic of the digital or material. In the fluid transaction between states of existence, algorithm and human error,
and different forms of media, something metaphysical starts to surface in the space between. The concept of hybridity
can be applied to two aspects of art today.
1. Artists today are comfortable using whatever seems best to fully investigate and express their ideas or concepts and
often move among different media and techniques to express new things in their work.
2. One approach to understanding art today involves identifying what media and materials the artists chose and
considering why they chose to work with them.
Look at the example below of how contemporary artists apply hybridity in their craftsmanship.

A. The first picture shows a product of mixed media and hybridity obra maestro by Renee Isaac.
B. The second picture shows the creativity of the artists using coffee for his painting.

What have you observed in their art works? What are the materials they used to come up with this craftsmanship?
How does a technique or medium limit or expand meaning in art? How do artists make choices about materials and
techniques for their art? Well, whatever the decisions of the artists make concerning media and materials are often
affected by ideas they want to express about their experiences living today.

Since the 1960’s the term new media art was coined and it was used to describe practices that apply computer
technology as an essential part of the creative process and production.
Placing the term under a vast umbrella known as new media, computer production, video art, computer-based
installations, and later the Internet and Post Internet art and exploration of the virtual reality became recognized as artistic
practices. The term, in the contemporary practice, refers to the use of mass production and the manipulation of the virtual
world, its tools and programs as what we called Technology art. The use of technology in the creation and dissemination
of art works.

 As such, designers, and artists to produce commercial pieces or for more elaborate and conceptual works
implement many different computer programs, such as 3D modeling, Illustrator, or Photoshop.

E. Engagement
Activity
In your community or a city where you were living find a memorial of hero or heroine and answer the following
questions: Take a picture on that monument, draw it in a short bond paper and place your answers at the back.
1. How this monument differs from other monuments?
2. What is the relationship of these monuments to the surrounding space and other structures within that space? Do they
dominate space?
3. How is the subject depicted? Does the subject have any trace of facial expression? If yes, describe.
