Yes – Applied Ats ACTIVITY 2 Answer the following question as precisely yet as thoroughly as possible (maximum 100 words each). 1. Why art is not nature? Art is not nature because art is a man-made creation. Furthermore, "art is not nature" denotes the absence of a natural phenomenon. Man, on the other hand, has taught himself to find art in nature. Art is not Nature, Art is made by Man Setting us apart from the animals, humans learned and perceived logic and pattern in our everyday lives. It is not nature because, in many senses, art is not "natural," but rather a man-made construct. If art is nature then everything is nature. So it kind of makes the word nature redundant. If nature is life and then humans are alive and make art then art is nature. 2. Why art is ageless and timeless? Art is ageless since it is derived from our thoughts and ideas. Anyone, from the young to the elderly, can participate in the arts because it is fashionable. The desire to create and enjoy art will endure as long as we are alive. Art is timeless because it brings people of all generations, ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds together. It has a creative, spiritual quality to it that can leave an indelible impression on anyone, regardless of age. Agelessness and timelessness can refer to a classical form of art that will never go out of style, in the sense that it does not employ any fads that will only be popular for a limited time. 3. Why does art involve experience? "Art involves experience" signifies that art is a means of expressing one's feelings, emotions, or ideas as a result of one's experiences. As a result, art conveys the artist's experiences. These experiences are one-of-a-kind, and they are what drives an artist to create art. For example, when someone is heartbroken, it is simple for him or her to write a sad poetry or song because of the painful experience of love. Without experiences, it would be difficult to create art because you can't make something you don't understand from the start, and you can't properly explain what you haven't gone through. As a result, every piece of art created or performed is based on something people have already experienced or discovered. ACTIVITY 3 Choose one artwork under each given category that you are familiar with. This can be the last art work that you have come across with or the one that mad the most impact to you. Criticize each using the guide question: 1. Movie 2. Novel 3. Poem 4. Music Questions: 1. What is it about? What is it for? 2. What is it made of? 3. What is it style 4. How good is it? MUSIC Music is the art of arranging sounds in time through elements of melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre. It also form of art that uses sound organized in time. Music are creating for ceremonial purposes, recreational purposes, and artistic expression. Music is comprised of sound. Music is made up of both sounds and silences. Music intentionally made art. Music is humanly organized sound. Pop music is the genre of popular music that produces the most hits. The pop music is good because it has a good rhythm, a catchy melody, and are easy to remember and sing along to. Respeto, Shella Mie B. BSCRIM-1D LESSON 2: FUNCTIONS AND PHILOSOPHY Activity 1| Functions of arts Identify: 1.The form of this artwork? *The form of tis is Visual arts Form- Sculpture. 2.The medium used *The Rizal Monument is a memorial created in Rizal Park in Manila, Philippines, to honor José Rizal, a Filipino nationalist who was executed. The monument features a standing bronze sculpture of Rizal with an obelisk set on a stone base within which his remains are interred, clutching his two famous works "El Filibusterismo and Noli Me Tangere." "To the memory of José Rizal, patriot and martyr, executed on Bagumbayan Field December Thirtyth 1896, this monument is dedicated by the people of the Philippine Islands," reads a plaque on the pedestal's front. 3.The function of this work of art? *The Rizal Monument serves a meaningful national heritage for Filipinos, commemorating the heroic act of Jose Rizal to his country. 4.The symbolism it forwards *The Rizal Monument in the 58-hectare Rizal Park holds a special meaning to Filipinos. The monument is essentially a memorial to the martyrdom of a wonderful man who, despite being falsely accused, saw his fate as a glorious opportunity to offer his life for his sorrowful, cherished country, despite the fact that the honor was not his alone. Many men's blood had been spilt on our colonial past's killing field, once known as Bagumbayan—a clearing blind to justice, deaf to bullets, its tongue forcefully severed to silence it from crying at the horrors of unfairness. Activity 2| Philosophical Perspective on arts./Philosophical perspective on arts. Position/Argument paper: In philosophical perspective in arts I agree in most with Aristotle. He agree with the perspective of plato that art is form of imitation. But he believes that arts is considered as a representation and as an aid to philosophy in revealing the truth. The kind of imitation that arts does is not antithetical to the reaching of fundamental truths in the world. For him, art was not mere copying. As a realization in the external form of a true idea, art idealizes nature and completes its faults seeking to grasp the universal type in the individual phenomenon. The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance', Aristotle wrote. The theory of art as an imitation of beauty or nature was persistent throughout the history of art. For Aristotle, all kinds of art do not aim to represent reality as it is, it endeavors to provide a version of what might be or the myriad possibilities of reality. Unlike plato who thought that art is an imitation of another imitation. Aristolte conceive of arts as representing possible versions of reality. However, Immanuel Kant, believes that art as a disinterested judgment. He recognized that judgment of beauty is subjective. Respeto, Shella Mie B. BSCRIM-1D LESSON 3: STUDY OF ARTS ACTIVITY 1/ Subject and Content of artworks. Formal art analysis: The Parisian Life, also known as Interior d'un Cafi (also spelled Interior d’Un Café,[2] literally meaning "Inside a Café"), is an oil on canvas impressionist[3] painting made by Filipino painter and revolutionary activist Juan Luna in 1892 The Parisian Life, also known as Interior d'un Cafi (also spelled Interior d’Un Café,[2] literally meaning "Inside a Café"), is an oil on canvas impressionist[3] painting made by Filipino painter and revolutionary activist Juan Luna in 1892 The Persian life painting is a richly layered portrayal of contemporary social norms, gender politics and national allegory. Formal and social analyses reveal a woman, believed to be a prostitute, as the subject of the male gaze. Women in Paris were increasingly seen as a threat to the status quo. If they did not conform to the traditional role of a femme honnête (respectable woman), they were seen as the courtisane, or the prostitute. As a dangerous woman, the prostitute bore the stigma of infecting men with venereal disease. The unregistered prostitute, who constituted a growing labor force in Paris, was regarded as “the site of absolute degradation and dominance, the place where the body became at last an exchange value, a perfect and complete commodity”.1 In constant circulation like money, yet at times also clandestine, the prostitute could be considered as the spectacle in the flesh, which Manet’s Olympia (1863) embodied. Indeed, she represented desire and death, a femme fatale who was both loved and loathed. Parisian Life mirrors the constructions of masculinity and civility among the three men wearing European clothes, “part of a larger attempt at nationalist self-fashioning”.2 Despite the civilized middle-class body, their brown faces disclose their racial identity. They are identified as the Filipino patriots Jose Rizal, Juan Luna (frontal pose), and Ariston Bautista (holding cane handle). They are fixed on the woman whose very appearance in a café is an erotic encounter itself. While Luna’s self-portrait exhibits fatigue or even ennui, Bautista registers the curiosity and pleasure of a voyeur “in a fairly lascivious way” tilting his head toward the sexually objectified cocotte who furtively acknowledges his gaze.3 Far from heroic, Juan Luna brought to light the hypocrisy and duplicity of his milieu and the general anxiety against the prostitute. Despite of and whether the black umbrella functions as a barricade or signifies the phallus, the conventional prostitute of Parisian Life still approximates the familiar Old World—patriarchal— whose double standards Luna and the ilustrados enjoyed. While Luna’s body of work crystallized the artistic and economic negotiations he had to perform as a painter, his life and home became the model of the divided self and the imagined community. Contrary to nationalist historiography and its grand, developmental narrative, the growth of the new ‘Filipino’ consciousness was uneven, ambiguous, and problematic. Moreover, the yet-to-be-‘Filipino’ was already endangered. Although the prostitute personified the threat of sexual corruption, moral disintegration and physical death in Parisian Life, the latent fear of the ilustrados was caused, in general, by women and, figuratively, by France. In sum, Juan Luna’s Parisian Life is an Impressionist rendition of an interior of a café inhabited by a cocotte, a dandy, and three ilustrados in Haussmannized Paris. It can be read as an ideological unveiling not only of late 19th-century French modernity, but the “gait, glance, and gesture” of the other spectacle and myth that it mirrors: the problematic and complex formation of the nation-state and the scarcity and fetishism of the Filipino. Indeed, meaning, to echo Jacques Derrida, is always “deferred”. Respeto, Shella Mie B. BSCRIM-1D THE PEOPLE AND THE PLACE ART Activity 1/The people of art Match the artwork with its artist.

An inquiry to the existence of museums(Research paper) AYALAMUSEUM. Ayala Museum is a modern museum showcasing a huge range of displays about the people of the Philippines, tracing their journey from ancient history to the present day. The extensive ethnological and archaeological displays relate to Filipino culture, history, art, and heritage.Leandro Y. Locsin, Jr. The Ayala Museum is a museum in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines. The museum is right in the middle of the Makati Central Business District, offering a relaxing and educational respite from the chaos of the city. After you're done getting to know the country's history, you can quickly return to the modern world with a visit to the nearby shopping centre. There are also lots of dining and entertainment options in the area.Ayala Museum is one of the leading private museums in the Philippines. This six-storey edifice houses permanent exhibits on Filipino culture, art, and history. It also features changing exhibits that situate Philippine art in the global arena, and hosts overseas collections. The purpose of the museum is to people, society, culture and to the discipline and practice of art. It is for them to know the importance of things that have sentimental value if they have something to remember. Because of this the perspective of the people will change. The person will be more valued through a museum. Because they will find here the things that should be kept and not ignored. Museums play a crucial role in preserving local culture. With careful documentation and artifact preservation, a culture can be recorded and remembered regardless of its future. It can also be shared and understood by those from different cultural backgrounds.tell us stories about how our nation, our communities and our cultures came to be and without them, those stories could be forgotten. Museums serve our communities in a multitude of ways, as we have seen firsthand.
