    What is Visual Art?
    The Philippine visual arts encompass a
    range of forms developed by Filipinos in the
    Ethnic, Spanish, American, and
    contemporary traditions. In ethnic
    communities, pottery, weaving, carving, and
    metal-craft are made for ritual purposes or
    for everyday use.
    The visual arts are art forms such as
    painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture,
    ceramics, photography, video, filmmaking,
    design, crafts, and architecture. ... Current
    usage of the term "visual arts" includes fine
    art as well as the applied or decorative arts
    and crafts, but this was not always the case.
    For putting Filipino visual arts on the
    map and leaving a legacy that will
    continue to influence and inspire
    generations of artists and individuals
    alike, these are just a few of the
