INTEGRATIVE ART
Art employs the use of
different art elements used
together in distinct different
expressions. Thus, it
becomes a combination of
different art forms for
specific groups of viewers.
What I Have Learned
Contemporary Art considers not only the artist but also
the participation of the community through the viewers.
The experience is not solely confined to the creator of
the artwork but also to its viewer. Being member of the
community and a viewer, you can also take part in
creating art. There is no established or fixed standard in
creating contemporary art. The artist is free to render
his artwork with the use of various materials, traditional
or non-traditional, any combination of style and
technique, and choice of form either singly or in
combination.
