Module 20: INTEGRATIVE ART AS

APPLIED IN CONTEMPORARY ART


The Pennsylvania State University defines integrative art as a multidisciplinary
approach in the study of art using “vocational, scholarly, and creative interest in the arts
and design” within and outside the scope of traditional art practice . Integrative art is a
learning method that utilizes the fine and performing arts as principal pathways to
education. It is quite different from conventional arts education because the former uses
of both art disciplines and traditional subjects as elements of learning.

Objective of Integrative Art:


• To expand people’s understanding of a general subject area, while simultaneously
developing a larger extent of understanding and appreciation of both the fine and
performing arts.

Several ways on how integrative art can be applied in contemporary or modern art:
 New Media Art
 Digital Storytelling
 Using Music & Performing Arts in Education

New Media Art


This art form covers created integrative artful masterpieces with new media
technologies such as digital art, video games, robotics, and virtual arts. The
interconnectivity of the Internet, including the growing competition between commercial
and business interests, governmental interests, and public interests that gave birth to
the Web today, has inspired many artists that make new media art.

Examples of New Media Art:


Digital Storytelling
It refers to the new practice of ordinary people who use digital tools to articulate

or tell their story. University of Houston

Professor Bernard
Robin describes the contents and texts of

digital stories: “topics that are used in digital


storytelling range from personal tales to the
recounting of historical events from exploring life in one’s own community to the search
for life in other corners of the universe, and literally everything in between.” These texts
can provide the learners with global perspectives. Stories in digital formats are
compelling and engaging. They can also be interactive. This type of storytelling uses still
imagery, moving imagery, sound, and text.
Examples of Digital Storytelling:

Using Music and Performing Arts in Education

Edutopia contributor Fran


Smith describes the effect of

incorporating art in education as “associated with


gains in math, reading, cognitive ability, critical
thinking and verbal skill.” This revolutionary
perspective allows educators to link art in teaching,
as it includes the use of keyboard skills and music in developing the spatial and spatial-
temporal reasoning skills. These skills are essential to understanding mathematical
concepts and patterns.

Example of Using Music and Performing Arts in Education:


 Giving students performance tasks involving the use of music such as singing and
dancing.
 Making students perform theatrical dances, festival dances, dramas, operas, and
other performing arts.
