Contemporary Philippine
Arts from the Region
Module 10
 Target

Being artistic is the ability that includes skills and talent to create fine
works of art like painting, drawing, sculpting, musical composition, etc. while
Creativity is the ability, skills and talent to use our imagination to create and
solve. A better artist is creative. But, you don’t have to be an artist to be
creative.

Contemporary art is often looked at with a skeptical eye. It uses

techniques that most people aren’t quite used to, causing that skepticism to
come into play. It’s an incredible feat to create a piece of contemporary art,
especially using these techniques. They challenge the mind and offer unique
perspectives in a way that art has never been able to do before. For that reason,
they’re some of the most valuable techniques that a person can experience
through artwork.
In your previous lesson, you are done on the techniques and performance
practices of Contemporary arts in your locality.
This module will provide you with information and activities that will help
you apply the artistic skills and techniques to Contemporary Arts Production.
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. Apply artistic skills and techniques in the process
of creation (CAR11//12AP-0f-h-15)

Before going on, check how much you know the topic. Answer
the pre-test on the next page in a separate sheet of paper (1/4
sheet)

Activity 1: Read Me! Understand Me!

Directions: Read this artistic skills and techniques to Contemporary art Creation.
This lesson will introduce you to your artistic skills which are already enhanced.
Your artistic skills used in creating arts
There are three techniques that are most relevant in contemporary art
today.
1. Minimalism
Minimalism seeks to take away what’s unnecessary and leaving only
what’s
essential. This is probably the most important part of contemporary art, as it
has informed so much of society.

2. Found Objects
Taking something that people view as useless, and then using it in a
unique way in order to make artwork as one of the most important movements
that currently exist in contemporary artwork. The idea is that things that we
often view as junk are actually more valuable than we think that they are.

3. Large-Scale
Art
It is more than just a painting that happens to be oversized. It is larger
than
life and massive enough to fill a room, command a space and dwarf everything
else that comes near it.

Artistic Skills and Techniques to Contemporary Art Creation

1.
Graffiti

from
a matrix onto another surface, most often paper or fabric.

Art is a form of expression that can be conveyed by people in several

different ways. Paintings, Sculptures, and Drawings are only few types of art
that have been around for hundred years, and that have been conveying with
human emotions. Contemporary arts today produce Artistic Skills and
Techniques in Art Creations.
Do you know what collage is? How many of you have tried this? What materials
did you used?
1. Collage
Collage is the techniques of an art production primarily used in the visual arts,
where the artwork is made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating
a new whole. Collage may sometimes include magazines and newspaper
clippings, ribbons, paints, bits or handmade colored papers, portions of other
artwork or text, photographs, and other found objects, glued to a piece of paper
or canvas.

2. Décollage

In art, it is the opposite of collage. It is a French word which means “will

take off” or to become “unglued” or to become “unstuck” some parts of
existing images. It is also created by cutting, tearing away or otherwise
removing pieces of an original image.

7
 Example of decollage include cut-up technique. Similar technique is the
lacerated poster, a poster in which one has been place over another or others,
and

8
the top poster or posters have been ripped, revealing to a greater or lesser
degree the poster or posters underneath.

3. Graffiti
It is a form of visual communication, usually illegal, involving the
unauthorized marking of public space by an individual or group. The common
image of graffiti is a stylistic symbol or phrase spray-painted on a wall by a
member of a street gang, some graffiti is not gang-related. It is an antisocial
behavior performed in order to gain attention or as a form of thrill seeking, but it
also can be understood as an expressive art form.

4. Land Art
Land art is that which is made use from natural materials: Stones, water,
gravel, fallen tree branches, leaves, feathers, shells and soil are the most
commonly used materials, but more unusual items like animal bones or skulls,
fur, ice or snow or animal tracks might also be used.

9
5. Digital Art
Digital Art falls into three basic categories:

A. Digital painting

Digital painting is done through painting that uses brushes much

like traditional painting techniques such as watercolor, oils, impasto, etc. are
applied using digital tools by means of a computer, a graphics tablet and
stylus, and software like painting on a table or creating artwork digitally on a
computer.

B. Digital photography & darkroom

- using cameras, containing arrays of electronic photo detectors to capture

images focused by a lens, as opposed to an exposure on photographic film.
- process of using electronic and computing appliances to capture, create,
edit and share

C. Fractals

Fractals are specialized hand – held glass prism that adds artistic flare to
your images and video.
Fractal Filters are supplementary tools designed to provide photographers
(and videographers) with new techniques that can be used to shoot
anytime, anywhere.

10
6. Printmaking

A. Woodcut

The oldest form of printmaking, woodcut is a relief process in which knives

and other tools are used to carve a design into the surface of a wooden block.
The raised areas that remain after the block has been cut are inked and printed,
while the recessed areas that are cut away do not retain ink, and will remain
blank in the final print.

B. Engraving

Engraving is an intaglio printmaking process in which lines are cut into a

metal plate in order to hold the ink. In engraving, the plate can be made of
copper or zinc. The metal plate is first polished to remove all scratches and
imperfections from the surface so that only the intentional lines will be printed.

C. Etching

Etching is an intaglio printmaking process in which lines or areas are incised

using acid into a metal plate in order to hold the ink. In etching, the plate can be
made of iron, copper, or zinc.
To prepare the plate for etching, it is first polished to remove all scratches
and
imperfections from the surface. When the surface is completely smooth, it is
covered evenly with a layer of acid-resistant varnish or wax, which is called the
ground.

11
 D. Lithograph

Lithography is a Planographic printmaking process in which a design is

drawn onto a flat stone (or prepared metal plate, usually zinc or aluminum) and
affixed by means of a chemical reaction.
First, the design for the lithograph is drawn directly onto a polished slab of
limestone using an oil-based lithographic crayon or ink.

E. Screen print

Screen printing is a process where ink is forced through a mesh screen

onto a surface. Making certain areas of the screen impervious to printing ink
creates a stencil, which blocks the printing ink from passing through the screen.
The ink that passes through forms the printed image.

7. Mixed Media

In visual art, mixed media is an artwork in which more

than one medium or material has been employed. Assemblages and collages
are two common examples of art using different media that will make use
of different materials including cloth, paper, wood and found objects.
