Contemporary Art Forms and their practices
from the various regions
The arts are classified in distinct forms: architecture, visual arts, music,
literary arts, dance, dramatic arts, cinema and broadcast arts, and new media.
However, the arts in the regions have evolved and taken a new form. The arts in the
regions have combined to create integrative art. Because of this, there is now an
interconnection among the arts, resulting in the combination of arts.

What is It
In order to understand more about the topic, you are going to read and
comprehend the discussion presented in this portion. This will help you discover
and understand new concepts and skills about the topic.
Integrative Art to Philippine Contemporary Art
The art are classified in distinct forms: architecture, visual arts, literary arts,
dance, dramatic arts, cinema and broadcast arts, and new media. However, the arts
in the regions have evolved and have taken a new form. They are no longer what they
were several years ago.
The arts in the regions have combined to create integrative art. Because of
this, there is now an interconnection among the arts, resulting in the combination
of arts.
Contemporary art forms in the regions now include the following:
choreography, musical instruments, literary and music composition, visual design,
theatrical performance, and cinema. Try to analyze these integrated contemporary
art forms in the regions.
Choreography
Choreography is an arrangement or design for dance movements usually
accompanied by music. It is the art of dancing that is composed of a series of dance
steps and movement to create a story. It has become an integrated art, for it
incorporates both dance and music.
In the regions, there is a minimal number of contemporary dances because the
traditional dances are still being widely practiced. However, the choreography of
these traditional dances have varied through generations. Modifications are done to
adapt to contemporary times.
Contemporary choreography are mostly seen in the productions iof street
dancing for regional festivals.
Musical Instruments
A musical instrument is any tool or device that produces sound. It consists of
an array of shapes and styles from the simple to the complex. One interacts with a
musical instrument in a way that it produces a sound, like a guitarist plucking the
strings of his guitar or a drummer beating his gong. Examples of traditional musical
instruments in the Philippines are the kulintang, gangsa, and the kutyapi.
Integration of arts is seen through the intricate design of musical instruments,
representing visual arts; and their functions, which is primarily to create music. A
musical isntrument alone is an example of integrated art.
One notable Filipino, National Artist for Music Lucresia Kasilag, infused the
sounds of naive instruments on new forms, such as theater and pictures. Some of
her remarkable works are Orientalia Suite for Piano and Chamber and Philippine
Percussion Instruments, and Improvisations No 3 and 4 for Moslem gamelan and
tipaklong.
10
Literary and Musical Compositions
Literary works are written works meant to be read, sung, or delivered in a
play. They can be written in prose or in poetry form. Musical compositions, on the
other hand, are not written but notated (represented by muscial symbols). Since they
use symbols particular to their field, they must be learned.
These two types of compositions are some of the easisest art forms to integrate
with another form. Literary pieces, such as novels, short stories,and epics are the
most common bases of other forms like theater and cinema. A theater without a
playwright is nothing; so is a cinema without a scriptwriter.
In the contemporary times, the most common examples are the movie
adaptations of some well-known literary pieces, such as “Bata, Bata, Pa’no ka
Ginawa?” and “Dekada ‘70,” novels by Lualhati Bautista that were turned into films
by Chito Roῆo; and Mars Ravelo’s comics “Darna,” “Captain Barbell,”and
“Dyesebel,”which were adapted into numerous movies and TV programs through
time.
It is the same with musical compositions. Anotated work must be performed
to be appreciated. Aside from recitals, compositions are now being enjoyed in dance,
theater, cinema and broadcast arts, and even in new media.
Visual Design
Visual Design is a composition or layout of lines, shapes, and color to form
patterns on paper; textile, or any piece for that matter. It can be found in either twodimensional works like painting and drawing; or three-dimensional works like
installation and sculpture.
Integration of arts in visual design happens in several hybrid art forms like
installation videos and the like.
Theatrical Performance
The staging and execution of a production, like drama, opera, festivals and
the like fall under the form called theatrical performance. It pertains to a public
presentation of a dramatic or musical entertainment. It involves a lot of teamwork
that includes the producer; the director, the cast, and the crew of workers.
Technology, wether traditional, digital, multimedia, innovative, or alternative, is a
vital part of any performance.
Contemporary theatrical performance is experimental , innovative,
controversial, and interdisciplinary, going beyond theater and other art forms, like
puppetry, cinema, and sculpture. It also goes out to other disciplines like psychology,
and the social and political sciences.
One specific example of a contemporary theatrical performance is PETA’s Rak
of Aegis, a musical tribute to the Filipino 90s band, Aegis. It used the integration of
music, theater, and dance to create a hybrid piece of art.
Cinema
The cinema is the most popular of the art forms; yet, it is the youngest of
all. It appeared only in early 1900s in Manila and later spread in the regions. It has
gained public acceptance since then. The characteristics of the cinema is similar to
the theater; except that it is not a live performance and the action is seen in a flat
screen.
However, in the advent of technology, even the theater- known to produce live
performances-has been brought to the cinema. One recent example is the 2012
11
comedy-musical, I Do Bidoo Bidoo: Heto nAPO Sila! a movie tribute to the prized trio
of the 80s, the APO Hiking Society.
A lot has happened in the contemporary art scene since its onset in the 70s.
In the regions, art forms are now collaborative and community-based, fostering
values of camaraderie, cooperation, team-building, and pride of place.
