Lesson 2 ART APPRECIATION
APPRECIATION IMAGINATION
• It takes an artist to make art. One may
perceive beauty on a daily basis.
• However, not every beautiful thing that
can be seen or experienced may truly be
called a work of art.
• Art is a product of man’s creativity,
imagination, and expression.
• Not everyone can be considered an
artist, but all are spectators of art.
• We are able to distinguish what is fine and
beautiful from what is not and what is
good quality and from poor.
• This gives us a role in the field of art
appreciation.
Each artwork beholds beauty in
his own kind, the kind that the
artist sees and wants the viewers
to perceive.
THE ROLE OF CREATIVITY IN
ART MAKING
•Creativity requires thinking
outside the box.
•In art, creativity is what sets apart
one artwork from another.
WHEN WE CAN SAY THAT
SOMETHING IS CREATIVE?
• When we have not seen anything like it
• When it is out of the ordinary
• When it is not just a copy or imitation of
someone’s work
… THERE IS ORIGINALITY!
ART AS A PRODUCT OF
IMAGINATION,
IMAGINATION AS A
PRODUCT OF ART
“ Imagination is more important than
knowledge. For knowledge is limited
to all we now know and understand,
while imagination embraces the
entire world, and all there ever will be
to know and understand.” – Albert
Einstein
• Through imagination, one is able to craft
something bold, something new, and
something better in the hopes of creating
something that will stimulate change.
• An artwork does not need to be real thing,
but can be something that is imaginary.
• However, something imaginary does not
necessarily mean it cannot be called art.
Artists use their imagination that gives birth
to reality through creation.
Imagination produces
art, art also inspires
imagination.
ART AS EXPRESSION
•Expressing emotions is different from
describing emotions.
•This makes people’s art not a
reflection of what is outside or
external to them, but a reflection of
their inner selves.
VISUAL ARTS
• Creations that fall under this category are
those that appeals to the sense of sight
and are mainly visual in nature.
• Artists produce visual arts driven by their
desire to reproduce things that they have
seen in the way that they perceived
them.
FILM
• Film refers to the art of putting together
successions of still images in order to
create an illusion of movement.
• Filmmaking focuses on its aesthetic,
cultural, and social value and is
considered both an art and an industry.
PERFORMANCE ART
• Performance art is live art and the artist’s
medium ais mainly the human body
which he or she uses to perform, but also
employs other kind of art such as visual
art, props, or sounds.
POETRY PERFORMANCE
• Poetry is an art form where the artist
expresses his emotions not by using paint,
charcoal, or camera, but expresses them
through words,
• These words combined with movements,
tone, volume, and intensity of the delivery
add to the artistic, value of the poem.
ARCHITECTURE
• Art is the pursuit and creation of beautiful
things while architecture is the making of
beautiful buildings
• However, not all building are beautiful
because some only embody the
functionality they need, but the structure,
lines, forms, and colors are not beautifully
expressed.
DANCE
•Dance is series of movements that
follow the rhythm of the music
accompaniment.
•Dancing is a creative art form that
allows people to freely express
themselves.
LITERARY ART
• Artist who practice literary arts use words
to express themselves and communicate
emotions to the readers.
• Simply becoming a writer does not make
one a literary artist.
• Literary art goes beyond the usual
professional, academic, journalistic and
other technical forms of writing.

accounts or imaginary events before live
audience.

script, though they should not be
confused with literary arts.
