Abstraction and Generalization

Contemporary art is an art produced at the present period of time andmore

focused on society it usually reflects or comments on modern society by us-
ing new techniques and materials, such as video and multimedia technology
while Traditional art is a folk art, which encompasses arts produced from
an indigenous culture, it aims to represent reality or realism through narra-
tive.

This is one of the best works of Fernando

Amorsolo
“Harvesting Rice near Mayon Volcano” This
artwork is an example of Traditional Art be-
cause the picture tells a story that repre-
sents the reality of life and their way of liv-
ing. Upon looking to this artwork it directly
narrates a story that will clearly tells us the
message of simple living and bayanihan. It
also uses symbolism like “Salakot” a native
hat used by farmers. Also the perfectly
coned Mayon Volcano that proves that the
location is in the Philippines
This Artwork is an example of integrated tradi-
tional art to Contemporary art. “Lapu-Lapu” our
first Filipino hero known to be the first native
to resist imperial Spanish Colonization. This
Image is edited through Photoshop A digital ap-
plication in computer which is considered as a
contemporary technique in multimedia technol-
ogy. This artwork also make us reflect and ap-
preciate his heroism during the Spanish Era.

This artwork is an example of

contemporary mural painting found in
Donato Pison Avenue , Iloilo City. Adja-
cent to Atria District Park is colourful
image of a “Babaylan Woman” Wearing
her traditional clothing. She is Sur-
rounded by mountains and seas that
tells the rich culture of Panay bukid-
non. Art can always bring back both
past and present culture.

Application

• Art surrounds life, all people in every location, without us being aware of
it. Since time immemorial, art has existed as long as man has. It
is a huge part of our culture, which shapes our ideas, and vice versa,
and provides us with a deeper understanding of emotions and
self-awareness.

• Art makes people optimistic about their future. Art can be used to help
spread a message of inspiration, making people achieve great things in
life. Art can be a form of communication between people, to focus on
common issues for the betterment of humankind.

• Art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and trans-

lating experiences across space and time. Art in this sense is communi-
cation; it allows people from different cultures and different times to
communicate with each other via images, sounds and stories. Art is
often a vehicle for social change.
 The Golden mask found in Oton is an art introduced
by Spaniards. They used delicately worked sheets of
gold ornaments to cover the face of the dead. This
great artistic discovery bridges the gaps of the past
and the present art in the Philippines.

The old church of Oton was known as one of the best and the only
one of its style in the entire archipelago. It resembled the Gothic ca-
thedral of Byzantine. Greek and Gothic architectural designs, pat-
terned after a Greek cross capped by a magnificent dome. This shows
us that we have a very artistic past that we must appreciate.

Sandiya festival in Oton is associated with the celebration of

Katagman Festival, where in the local products of Oton are
displayed. Pulo Maestravita, a popular Barangay in Oton pro-
duces most of the biggest and sweetest watermelons in town.
They introduced fruit carving activity to appreciate how tal-
ented Ogtonganons are.

Loom weaving is popular home-based tradition in

the rural area in the Philippines, especially in the
Visayas. It is a kind of textile art during the Spanish
period. This product is known to be the first product
in the locality of Oton that is used for barter.
