READINGS:
ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM
The abstract expressionists were mostly based in New York City, and also
became known as the “New York School”. The name evokes their aim to make
art while abstract was also expressive or emotional in its effect. They were
inspired by the surrealist idea that art should come from the unconscious mind,
and by the automatism of artist Joan Miró.

ACTION PAINTING
One form of abstract
expressionism was seen in the works of
Jackson Pollock. These were created through
what came to be known as “action painting.”
Pollock worked on huge canvases spread on
the floor, splattering, squirting, and dribbling
paint with (seemingly) no pre-planned pattern
or design in mind. The total effect is one of
Autumn Rhythm vitality, creativity, “energy made visible.”

Here are some of the Media Art Techniques that are used in the different art
movements.
1. Drawing (Pencil, Colored pencil, Ink, Markers, Pastels and Chalk
2. Painting (Watercolor, Acrylic, Oil, Tempera)
3. Mixed Media (Collage, Assemblage and other media mixed together)
Pop Art
Like the Dadaist movement that arose after
World War I, the pop art movement of the 1960s
wanted to make reforms in the traditional values.
But unlike the angry, serious tone of the original
Dadaists, the pop artists seemed to enjoy
nonsense for its own sake and simply wanted to
laugh at the world. Their inspirations in their
artworks were the celebrities, advertisements,
billboards, and comic strips that were becoming
commonplace at that time. Hence, the term pop
(from “popular”) emerged.

Andy Warhol, 1967

Roy Lichtenstein (1923-1997) was an
American pop artist. During the 1960s,
along with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns,
and James Rosenquist, among others, he
became a leading figure in this new art
movement.

Op Art
Another movement that emerged in the 1960s was “optical art” or “op art.”
This was yet another experiment in visual experience—a form of “action painting”
with the action taking place in the viewer’s eye. In op art, lines, spaces and colors
were precisely planned and positioned to give the illusion of movement.

Conceptual Art
Another form of art from the
mid-1960s to the mid-1970s which the idea
(or concept) behind the work is more
important that the finished art object. A key
difference between a conceptual artwork
and a traditional painting or sculpture is
that the conceptualist’s work often requires
little or no physical craftsmanship. Much of
the artist’s time and effort goes into the
concept or idea behind the work, with the

What is It
INSTALLATION ART
Installation art is a contemporary art form
that uses sculptural materials and other media
to modify the way the viewer experiences a
particular space. Usually lifesize or sometimes
even larger, installation art is not necessarily
confined to gallery spaces. It can be constructed
or positioned in everyday public or private
spaces, both indoor and outdoor.
Materials used in today’s installation art
range from everyday items and natural materials
to new media such as video, sound,

“Pasyon at Rebolusyon” (Passion and
Revolution) – a forest of bamboo draped with
two flags and strewn with debris, a skull,
candles and to one side, a book in a wooden
box marked by the all-seeing eye of God,
which seems to be inhabited by some creepy
spirit.
