The document outlines the concepts of appropriation in art, discussing how existing artworks are adapted to create new forms and the role of performance and destruction in artistic expression. It also explores the use of space, hybrid materials, technology, and text in contemporary art while posing questions about the nature of art elements and principles. A performance task is included, requiring participants to present a dance incorporating the discussed elements and principles, along with criteria for assessment.

1. ELEMENTS &
PRINCIPLES OF ART
LESSON NO. 4

2. APPROPRIATION
▪Existing artworks are appropriated to produce another
artwork.
▪Usage of prints, images, and icons to produce another art form.
▪Combines past from the present.
▪Revives interests to existing forms of art.

▪Do you think that the pre-existing artwork used in
appropriation is defaced or devalued?

3. APPROPRIATION

4. PERFORMANCE
▪Performance refers to artwork created by or presented to
an audience.
▪Performance as an element can also include the
processes used by the artist to create the work.
▪Performance evolved to “emphasize spontaneous
elements of chance”.
▪Interpreting various human activities such as ordinary
activities such as chores, routines and rituals, to socially
relevant themes such as poverty, commercialism and war.

5. PERFORMANCE

6. DESTRUCTION
▪Destruction refers to when an artist uses
methods to show damage in or to their
artwork.
▪Many times, this destruction is documented
as a process, which in return, becomes the
artwork itself.

7. DESTRUCTION

8. SPACE
▪Site specific art forms – art
form that is performed and
positioned in a place specific
space such as public places.

9. SPACE

10. PERSPECTIVE
▪Perspective (such as localized, forced or
anamorphic) in contemporary art refers to
when an artist works with the real space
surrounding the artwork itself.
▪Perspective can play a role in the way the
viewer looks at the artwork or even the
way the work is perceived.

11. PERSPECTIVE

12. HYBRIDITY
▪Usage of unconventional materials, mixing of unlikely
materials to produce an artwork.
▪Blending of new or unusual materials with traditional
medium.
▪The incorporation of these materials, such as recycled or
industrial materials, plays a vital role in the meaning of
the artwork.
▪For example, coffee for painting; miniature sculptures
using crayons.

13. HYBRIDITY

14. TECHNOLOGY
▪Usage of technology in the creation and
dissemination of artworks.
▪Video phenomenon from MTV to Youtube.
▪Recording performances, video posting,
sharing, live streaming.

15. TECHNOLOGY

16. TEXT
▪Contemporary artists utilize text in their art
to push past the concept that text is only
meant to be read.
▪The additional meaning from the text adds
another level of depth that cannot be created
by shape and color alone.
