 EXPLORATION

Visual Arts
Visual arts are those forms perceived by eyes. These include painting, sculpture, and
architecture. They are also called spatial arts because artworks produced under this
genre occupy space. They are further divided into graphic arts and plastic arts.
Graphic Arts. Graphic arts are those visual arts that have length and width; thus, they
are also called two-dimensional arts. They are described as flat arts because thy are
seen on flat surfaces.
Examples: Painting, printing, drawing, sketching, commercial art, mechanical
processes, computer graphics, and photography.

Plastic Arts. Plastics arts are those virtual arts that have length, width, and volume;
thus, they are called three-dimensional arts.
Examples: Sculpture, architecture, landscape architecture, city planning, interior design,
costume design, set design; theater design, industrial design, crafts, and allied arts.

Audio-Visual Arts
Audio-visual arts are those forms perceived by both ears (audio) and eyes (video). They
are called performing arts in as much as the artists render a performance in front of an
audience.
Examples: Music (vocal, instrumental, and mixed), dance (ethnologic, social, and
theatrical), and drama (tragedy, comedy, tragicomedy, farce, melodrama, etc.)
Note: Music, unlike dance and drama, can be purely audial as when the audience
listens to a song played on the radio and does not see the artist (the singer) perform live
on stage.

Literary Arts
Literary arts are those presented in the written mode and intended to be read.
Examples: Prose (short stories, novels, essays, and plays) and poetry (narrative
poems, lyric poems, and dramatic poems)
