Functions of art
What do you think is the message of the 
artist in this masterpiece? 
Diego Rivera, Mexican, is a social activist through art.
All arts have function, for man, the 
maker, creates things because he has a 
particular need for them. 
Must art communicate? 
What is communicated by a church? A vase? A 
furniture?
Arts functions can be classified into : 
1. Motivated (Functional) 
Examples: Architecture, weaving, 
furniture-making 
2. Non-motivated (Non-functional) 
Examples: Painting, sculpture, literature, 
music, and the theater arts
Personal Function 
Arts are vehicles for the artists’ expression of their 
feelings and ideas. The arts also serve as means of 
expression for us.
The therapeutic value of music cannot be 
ignored. 
Works of art make us aware of other ways 
of thinking, feeling, and imagining that have 
never occurred to us before. (see Pina Bausch choreography)
Social Functions 
One cannot conceive of a society without art, for art is 
closely related to every aspect of social life.
Arts perform a social function when: 
1. Influences Social Behavior 
It seeks or tends to influence the collective 
behavior of a people. (Guernica by Pablo Picasso)
2. Display and Celebration 
It is created to be seen or 
used primarily in public 
situation.
One function of sculpture and painting is the 
commemoration of important personages in society. 
The statues of national heroes that grace our parks and 
plazas are commemorative works as are the 
commissioned paintings of leaders or rulers. Often 
they serve to record important historical events, or 
reveal the ideals of heroism and leadership that the 
community would want the young to emulate.
3. Social Description 
It expresses or 
describes social or 
collective aspects of 
existence as opposed to 
individual and personal 
kind of experiences. 
Romana Carillo by Justiniano Asuncion (1875)
Physical Functions 
Tools and containers are objects which function to make our 
lives physically comfortable. Functional works of art may 
be classified as either tools or containers. 
Tell whether the following is a tool or container. 
1. a spoon - 
tool 
2. a car- 
tool 
3. a building- 
container 
4. a community - 
container 
5. a ceramic vase - 
container 
6. a chair.- 
container
1. Form and Function 
The function of an object is 
generally determines in the 
basic form that it takes. A 
chair is so designed as to allow 
the seated body to rest 
comfortably on it. The shapes, 
sizes , and different parts are 
harmoniously related to one 
another and integrated into an 
object that fulfills and tells 
about their particular 
purpose.
2. Architecture 
The design of the building is determined primarily by its 
operational function. What is the building for? Who 
are going to use it? How many are they? 
The design that a building takes is also adapted to the 
climate of the region. 
The architect must take the physical, psychological, and 
spiritual needs of the family into account when he 
designs a house.
3. Community Planning 
A community is more than just a group of buildings. It is 
a group of individuals and families living in a 
particular locality because of common interest and 
needs. 
Community planning involves the efficient organization 
of buildings, roads, and spaces so that they meet the 
physical and aesthetic needs of the community.
Community planning takes into consideration the 
assignment of areas for proper land use. These are: 
1. Residential districts 
Special areas are assigned for residential purposes. 
The present trend is to get away from overcrowded 
downtown districts and the attendant problems and 
settle in areas where it is possible to blend the charms 
of rural living with the conveniences of urban living.
2. Industrial and commercial areas 
These areas are usually located near the 
source of raw materials. 
A commercial area can be a cluster of 
small neighborhood stores, a shopping complex 
in the suburbs, or a central downtown district. It 
is usually situated where it can be reached easily 
by car or public transport.
3. Civic centers 
A community governs itself; it therefore 
provides structures where the functions of government 
can be efficiently carried out, and which would, in 
appearance, be symbolic of community dignity and 
pride.
4. Parks, plazas, and malls 
The need for a balance between man-made 
structures and natural areas is answered in the design 
of plazas and malls. These may provide some relief 
from problems such as air and water pollution, 
inadequate facilities for recreation, and lack of parking 
space.
5. Streets and roads 
Transportation must function with 
reasonable ease and rapidity from one area to another. 
Streets are large or small according to their function.
4. Function and Beauty 
Many things remain the same in shape throughout the 
years because their functional requirements do not 
allow for greater variations in their form. Time has 
proved that their designs best enable them to 
accomplish their purpose.
A. Identify the social functions of the following artworks. 
1. a painting of children at play 
2. window chimes 
3. sculpture of Malakas and Maganda 
4. rattan chair 
5. weaved blanket 
B. Tell whether the function of art in the 
following artworks is personal, physical, or social. 
1. building 
2. sculpture of a national hero 
3. handcrafted bag

Functions of art

  • 2. What do you think is the message of the artist in this masterpiece? Diego Rivera, Mexican, is a social activist through art.
  • 3. All arts have function, for man, the maker, creates things because he has a particular need for them. Must art communicate? What is communicated by a church? A vase? A furniture?
  • 4. Arts functions can be classified into : 1. Motivated (Functional) Examples: Architecture, weaving, furniture-making 2. Non-motivated (Non-functional) Examples: Painting, sculpture, literature, music, and the theater arts
  • 5. Personal Function Arts are vehicles for the artists’ expression of their feelings and ideas. The arts also serve as means of expression for us.
  • 6. The therapeutic value of music cannot be ignored. Works of art make us aware of other ways of thinking, feeling, and imagining that have never occurred to us before. (see Pina Bausch choreography)
  • 7. Social Functions One cannot conceive of a society without art, for art is closely related to every aspect of social life.
  • 8. Arts perform a social function when: 1. Influences Social Behavior It seeks or tends to influence the collective behavior of a people. (Guernica by Pablo Picasso)
  • 9. 2. Display and Celebration It is created to be seen or used primarily in public situation.
  • 10. One function of sculpture and painting is the commemoration of important personages in society. The statues of national heroes that grace our parks and plazas are commemorative works as are the commissioned paintings of leaders or rulers. Often they serve to record important historical events, or reveal the ideals of heroism and leadership that the community would want the young to emulate.
  • 11. 3. Social Description It expresses or describes social or collective aspects of existence as opposed to individual and personal kind of experiences. Romana Carillo by Justiniano Asuncion (1875)
  • 12. Physical Functions Tools and containers are objects which function to make our lives physically comfortable. Functional works of art may be classified as either tools or containers. Tell whether the following is a tool or container. 1. a spoon - tool 2. a car- tool 3. a building- container 4. a community - container 5. a ceramic vase - container 6. a chair.- container
  • 13. 1. Form and Function The function of an object is generally determines in the basic form that it takes. A chair is so designed as to allow the seated body to rest comfortably on it. The shapes, sizes , and different parts are harmoniously related to one another and integrated into an object that fulfills and tells about their particular purpose.
  • 14. 2. Architecture The design of the building is determined primarily by its operational function. What is the building for? Who are going to use it? How many are they? The design that a building takes is also adapted to the climate of the region. The architect must take the physical, psychological, and spiritual needs of the family into account when he designs a house.
  • 15. 3. Community Planning A community is more than just a group of buildings. It is a group of individuals and families living in a particular locality because of common interest and needs. Community planning involves the efficient organization of buildings, roads, and spaces so that they meet the physical and aesthetic needs of the community.
  • 16. Community planning takes into consideration the assignment of areas for proper land use. These are: 1. Residential districts Special areas are assigned for residential purposes. The present trend is to get away from overcrowded downtown districts and the attendant problems and settle in areas where it is possible to blend the charms of rural living with the conveniences of urban living.
  • 17. 2. Industrial and commercial areas These areas are usually located near the source of raw materials. A commercial area can be a cluster of small neighborhood stores, a shopping complex in the suburbs, or a central downtown district. It is usually situated where it can be reached easily by car or public transport.
  • 18. 3. Civic centers A community governs itself; it therefore provides structures where the functions of government can be efficiently carried out, and which would, in appearance, be symbolic of community dignity and pride.
  • 19. 4. Parks, plazas, and malls The need for a balance between man-made structures and natural areas is answered in the design of plazas and malls. These may provide some relief from problems such as air and water pollution, inadequate facilities for recreation, and lack of parking space.
  • 20. 5. Streets and roads Transportation must function with reasonable ease and rapidity from one area to another. Streets are large or small according to their function.
  • 21. 4. Function and Beauty Many things remain the same in shape throughout the years because their functional requirements do not allow for greater variations in their form. Time has proved that their designs best enable them to accomplish their purpose.
