What is art?
The Greek philosopher Aristotle may have provided the ear-
liest assumptions of art as linked to human instincts. In his
Poetics, Aristotle claimed that humans have instincts for imi-
tation and harmony. He described that these instincts are
“lying deep in our nature.” He argued that human beings are
the most” imitative of living creatures,” and through imitation,
humans learn and experience pleasure. Art, then, defines as
a human pursuit to imitate life and the world into something
pleasing or beautiful.

the rules of traditional art.

Contemporary The term “Visual Arts” encompasses a wide range of

Visual Arts forms created by Filipinos. It ranges from Western–
influenced visual art forms include painting, sculpture
and architecture.

Painting refers to the process of applying color on a flat surface. Forms can be
created using a wide variety of materials such as watercolor, acrylic, ink, oil, pastel,
and charcoal. Surfaces for painting include wood, canvas, cardboard, and paper.
Painting is considered two-dimensional, meaning it only has height and width.
The Vintas
The colorful Vintas in Zamboanga is not only used for fishing or livelihood but it is
also used for race which we call the Regatta. The Regatta de Zamboanga is the
biggest and the most colorful event in the annual Zamboanga Hermosa Festival.

It is celebrated by native Zamboangueños in honor of their patron saint, the La Vir-

gen Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zarragosa.

The festival is conducted throughout the month of October. The main events, how-
ever, take place during the first 12 days of the month, climaxing on Oct. 12, which
is the feast day of the revered “patrona”.

Contemporary Performing Arts and Literature in the

Philippines
Literature is an art form of language through the combined use of words, creat-
ing meaning and experience.
It is also considered to be a bulk of written works. However, another definition of
literature means a body of works that show “the best that has been thought and
said, “ or works that signify the highest achievements of a particular culture.
Contemporary Philippine literature has been described as focusing on evoking
social consciousness.

Creative writing during the Martial Law era was

said to be confrontational in highlighting social
and political issues. However, creative writing
shifted to a more steady personal perspective
when it comes to social consciousness after the
1986 EDSA Revolution.

Literature is a timeless piece of entertainment. As

the innovations of technological advancements
have grown, the way we read has revolutionized and evolved. However, the es-
sence of storytelling and the effect it has on our lives hasn’t wavered.

Literature reflects human nature and a way we can learn and relate to others. By
reading through a first-person perspective, we can fully immerse ourselves into a
different mindset and figure out how others think and feel. This is important within
today’s society as we’re becoming increasingly detached from human interaction
through iPhones, FaceTime, and social media. Literature is something that will
never change in the way it makes you feel, regardless of whether that’s on paper
or as an eBook.
Reading a book is one of the best ways to fully immerse your mind into another
person’s dialogue and experiences. Being able to empathize and understand oth-
er people’s feelings is a key aspect of helping you connect to different regions,
races, societies, and periods of time. They help a person take a closer look at the
different facets of living aside from what they know and live which can change
perspectives.

Music is considered to be the least tangible

of the arts. It is defined as an arrangement of
sounds to create a continuous and unified
composition.

Understanding the elements of music and the

different musical traditions in the Philippines
will help in appreciating that contemporary
Philippine music is varied from one region to
another. Although popular music can easily
be heard in areas that can be reached by ra-
dio, television, and the internet, traditional
music and music with influences from Ameri-
ca and Europe are still evident in some re-
gions of the country.

Music is an important part of our life as it is a Dance is an art form involving a

way of expressing our feelings as well as series of rhythmic human move-
emotions. Some people consider music as a ments that are purposely selected.
way to escape from the pain of life. It gives Dance should be easily differenti-
you relief and allows you to reduce the stress. ated from movement. In contrast
to simple human movement or util-
itarian movement, dance involves
a mindful effort to combine move-
ments spatially, dynamically,
rhythmically, and artfully for these
movements to flow together.

Dancing can be a way to stay fit

for people of all ages, shapes and
sizes. It has a wide range of physi-
cal and mental benefits including:

Theater
The term ”theater” refers to an art form that involves performing carefully planned
actions and emotions in front of an audience. Theater has six elements: Perform-
ers, audience, director, performance space, design, and text.

The Phillipine theater is important and plays

an important role on promoting Filipino culture and
heritage. It showcases the beauty and tal-
ent filipinos have. Furthermore it seeks to entertain
people and as well as imparts knowledge through tell-
ing a story in a creative way.

Drama or theatre in the Philippines has been an inte-

gral part of the lives of pre-historic and modern Filipi-
nos as a communal expression of their local events:
religious celebrations, harvest festivals, commemora-
tive celebrations, and personal events such as births,
weddings and death rituals .

Film refers to a sequence of moving pictures, which is

typically shown in television or cinema. Filmmaking be-
came an industry in the Philippines during the 1950s.
However, the 1970s was considered to be a remarkable
era in the history of cinema in the Philippines. During
this decade, the academe started to produce a new
breed of film makers. It was also during this time when
the intellectuals were attracted to Filipino films partly be-
cause of the influence of the nationalists movement in
searching for that unique Filipino identity for film.
