Introduction

Art viewers can appreciate artworks if they can understand and grasp the meaning of the
artwork. The viewers are also called “gazers”, “on lookers”, or audience. In art viewing, viewers
bring with them their knowledge of art, biases and judgement of beauty.
Describing an artwork, especially if it is in a contemporary style, requires knowledge of
art: its scope, principles and production and understanding of the artist and the factors that affect
art making. Because many contemporary artists react to issues in society.
In this lesson, you will learn how to evaluate contemporary art by discussing its subject matter,
material, art elements and principles. Your knowledge of the elements of art and principles of
design is essential to description. You will realize that understanding the elements and principles
of arts will make you deeply interested in appreciating different masterpieces of our fellow

Mini-Lesson

There are three elements that constitute evaluation of contemporary art: what the artwork
is all about (subject matter), what materials/ medium were used in the process of art making, and
the art elements and principles.

Subject matter is what you see that is depicted in the artwork. It may be a human form where
the figures are engaged in an activity, or a combination of texture and color. It also may be a
figure made from found objects put together or assembled into a coherent whole.

Material is what the material made of. It can also be a combination of objects used in the
artwork.

Art elements and principles refer to the physical qualities of the image. The artist uses colors
lines, spaces and other elements to make visual images. These are arranged into an organized
manner that observes unity, harmony, rhythm or other principles of design in a creative way.

To guide in describing the contemporary artwork, these are some questions that you can answer
about each element:
The Subject Matter What is the main figure in the artwork?

How is the main figure placed within the artistic frame?

How do other figures in the artwork relate to the main figure?

achieved? Why and how?
The Art Elements and What are the dominant elements in the artwork?
Principles

How are line, shape, or volume used within the artistic frame?

How are texture, movement, or space used within the artistic frame?

Are there any variations among the repeated elements?

How does the art form appeal to the visual sense?

ART ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

Art Analysis requires an understanding of the content by separating the parts of the subject.
This can lead to grasping the artwork’s organizational structure, nature, function, and value.

The various elements that constitute analysis are:

• Determination of subject matter through naming events or issues associated with the
artwork
• Discussion of how the qualities of the artwork contribute to it’s appearance, image, or
function
• Description of the effect of the materials/ medium used; and
• Your reaction to the artwork

You can also answer the following questions:

• How did the artist make the artwork?


• Is it a good artwork?
• Do you like /dislike the artwork? Why?
• How does it compare with other artworks in the same contemporary style?

• What is the value of the artwork to you, the youth or society?

Art interpretation is employed by the viewer after describing and analyzing an artwork. The
focus is on the expressive qualities, the meaning, theme, mood, or idea communicated by the
artist.

The various elements that constitute interpretation are:

• Identifying the main idea and the overall meaning of the artwork
• Making an interpretative statement: “Can I express what I think the artwork is about in
one sentence?’
• Citing the evidence inside or outside the artwork that supports your interpretation
You can also answer the following questions:

• What is the artwork all about?


• What is it intending to communicate?
• What statement is the artist putting forward through the artwork?
• Are there objects within the artistic frame that symbolize something? What are these?
• What is the meaning of the artwork?
