photography, and video art which was developed through time. Philippines has a large variety of
contemporary arts influenced by the foreign country since Spaniard’s era until now. The Art was
developed from a simple carvings and paintings to photography, video art, or something with the use of

Learning a different forms of art from our different regions is fun and has a lot of benefits. Art is
a way of expressing oneself to the world and also a way of avoiding stress but we usually used the way of
foreign country in making arts, so why not we try to learn the art of our own, there is a lot of
contemporary arts from our own regions. First learn how to love our own piece before others, we should
be proud on our own culture and arts because how can you advocate to others something if you, yourself
don’t do it. We can advocate those regional contemporary arts just by making them and showing them
to our family, friends or in sharing them in social media. We can tell how wonderful the history, and the
way of making those art to others, especially when they are best to kill time and worth it or simply
putting them as a design.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

Direction: Answer the following questions.

1. What contemporary art form classification is the most prevalent art form in our country and why?

For me, and I think the most common contemporary art form classification in our country is
audio visual arts because it is popular to use technology or gadgets nowadays and most people
especially teenagers and kids uses and spend their time using gadgets and its more enjoyable for the to
make an art using technology especially now that kids and teens are most likely to watch cartoons and
animation.

2. What is the importance of the contemporary art form classification in today’s society?

Arts has a wide variety and it’s not really hard to classify arts. By identifying the different
classification arts, it is easier for you to know the meaning behind the art or the expression used in the
artwork. It will make you observe more about the artwork, if you know what is that artwork. And by
knowing the kind of artwork you are looking at, you will know its difference from the other
classifications.

3. What are the advantages in learning the different art forms in the Philippines?

Not really advantage, but benefits. Learning from the different art forms of the Philippines is for
us Filipinos to express the cultural richness of the archipelago in all its diversity. And to know the beauty

WHAT I CAN DO
Activity 1. Let us reflect. Draw a symbol that signifies your feelings after discovering the Philippine Art
History and the different contemporary art forms. Write 5 to 10 sentences on how you value this new
knowledge based from the symbol that you draw.

As a student, I'm constantly captivated by how an artist imparts their

message through different form of arts. Thus, by offering appreciation
to art and its history, gaining more knowledge about it, and
endeavoring to make it, I can esteem and like it. Numerous people
are unconscious of the importance of art. Subsequently, I'd prefer to
be a supporter of art, especially those made by Filipinos. It's
something we can be glad for, and it can assist us with getting global
acknowledgment.
