Art and Filipino artists’ roles
• Dr. Patrick Flores describes Philippine
contemporary art with “The feeling (s)
that all is possible in the contemporary,
conceived as a constant extending and
deepening constellation of art.”
• Contemporary art allows Filipino artists
to portray the subject and the medium in
innovative and skillful ways, reflecting
Filipino identity.
• Philippine Contemporary art can be
found even in the most unsuspecting
places. It cannot be reduced to
conventional notions of space and
medium.
ARCHITECTURE
• Each structure tells a story of how the art of
building was used to shape the course of
history and society. Likewise, architecture in
the country continues to be vibrant.
LITERARY JOURNALISM
• Is a form of non-fiction that combines factual
reporting with some narrative techniques and
stylistic strategies traditionally associated with
fiction.
THEATER
• Contemporary Philippine theater is still alive
despite the dominance of television, movies, and
the Internet.
• There are multiple stage productions from
university-based theater groups to major theater
companies.
