The piñata originated in China during the 16th century Renaissance era, where figures filled with seeds would be broken open to celebrate the new year. This tradition spread to Europe, especially Italy during Lent where clay pots filled with treats would be broken. The name "piñata" comes from the Spanish word for pineapple, as the clay pots resembled this fruit. The Spanish brought the piñata tradition to Mexico, where the indigenous Aztecs incorporated it into their celebrations of the god of war by decorating clay pots filled with offerings. Over time, Mexican artists developed piñatas using materials like cardboard and paper mache. Today, piñatas are mainly used as a fun birthday and Christmas activity in Mexico,

3d assemblage and sculpture presentation
Sculpture and 3D assemblage involve creating three-dimensional artwork using various materials and techniques. Sculpture has been an important part of religious and political expression throughout history in many cultures. Notable sculptors mentioned include Napoleon Abueva, Arturo Luz, Guillermo Tolentino, and Abdulmari Asia Imao, known for their sculptures highlighting Filipino culture and history. 3D assemblage involves combining found objects into artistic compositions and originated in the early 20th century works of artists like Picasso, Duchamp, and Rauschenberg.
Greek and Roman Art
The Greeks believed the gods controlled their destiny and created art and architecture to honor them. A key example is the Parthenon, a massive structure built on the Acropolis in Athens over 10 years as a temple to Athena. Over time, Greeks developed three architectural styles distinguished by their columns and capitals. Greek sculptors focused on realistic proportions and capturing emotion rather than aesthetic beauty. Painted sculptures were originally colorful but have faded. Romans contributed advanced architectural styles like aqueducts and amphitheaters like the Colosseum. They embraced Greek artistic styles and focused on realistic portraiture.
Mannerism
Mannerism (from maniera, manner, or style), the artistic style prevailed in Italy from the end of the High Renaissance in the 1520s until Baroque style 1590. Early Mannerism (c.1520-35) is known for its "anti-classical" or "anti-Renaissance" style, which later evolved into High Mannerism (c.1535-1580), a more intricate, inward-looking, and academic style intended to cater to more sophisticated patrons. The term used for anti-classical indicates that the naturalism painting style is during the high renaissance departure to an artificial and exaggerated painting style, also known as Mannerism.
The Art of Ancient Greece
The Greek city-states of Athens, Sparta, and others developed new forms of governance, philosophy, and the arts after the decline of the Cycladic states. Pottery styles like geometric krater and black-figure painting emerged as important artistic traditions. Athens' Parthenon temple, commissioned by Pericles, represented the height of Greek architectural and artistic achievement.
Carnival
Carnival is a festive season held before Lent, traditionally in February, where rich foods are eaten before the fasting period of Lent. The origins of the word "Carnival" come from the Latin phrase "Carne vale" meaning "farewell to meat". Some of the most famous carnivals in Italy include Venice, known for masks, Viareggio with floats and masks, and Ivrea which features an orange battle.
Tinikling
Tinikling is a traditional Philippine folk dance that originated during the Spanish colonial era in Leyte. It imitates the movement of tikling birds walking and running between grass stems and tree branches. The dance involves two people tapping and sliding bamboo poles on the ground and against each other in coordination with one or more dancers who step over and in between the poles to the music traditionally played by a rondalla string ensemble. Female dancers typically wear colorful balintawak dresses with wide sleeves or a patadyong, while males wear an untucked embroidered Barong Tagalog shirt.
Baroque Neoclassical Art
This document provides an overview of the 17th century Baroque period from 1600-1800. Some key points:
- In the early 1600s, Rome was the leader of the Baroque style, though Baroque arrived later in France due to strict classicism. France later emerged as a major cultural center under Louis XIV.
- The latter half of the period saw the Enlightenment and French Revolution. Rococo style rose as Baroque ended. Neoclassicism followed the Enlightenment with a focus on antiquity.
- The 18th century saw the rise and fall of Rococo style and the emergence of Neoclassicism and later Romanticism, which emphasized emotion and individuality over reason.

Our latin american heritage (2)
Mexico played an important role in Spain's conquest of the Philippines in the 16th century. From 1565 to 1821, the Philippines was ruled from Mexico by a Mexican viceroy appointed by the Spanish king. During this period, Mexico contributed greatly to Philippine culture by introducing new plants, animals, industries, music, and Catholic traditions. The Philippines was economically linked to Mexico through the annual galleon trade route, which also facilitated cultural exchanges between the two regions like the introduction of Chinese markets called "parians." Filipinos drew inspiration from Mexico and other Latin American countries' revolutions for independence from Spain in the 19th century. Both regions reciprocally influenced each other's culture and development during this time of shared history

Castanyada
Castanyada is a Catalan festival celebrated in November that originated from traditions of eating chestnuts and visiting cemeteries on All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day. As part of the celebration, people traditionally eat chestnuts, panellets (sweet bread), boniatos (sweet potatoes), and drink moscatel wine. The chestnut became a staple food in Catalonia after being introduced by the Romans, although its importance later declined with the arrival of maize and potatoes from America.

The history of the piñata
- 1. The History of the Piñata Most people believe piñatas are from Mexico but t hey actually originated in China, around the era of European Renaissance during the 16th century. Marco Polo, while in China, discovered figures made to look like cows, oxen, and other animals. They were colored with bright paper and decorated in different ways. This was to greet the new year in China. The Chinese would knock the figures with colored s ticks, and seeds would spill everywhere. They would then burn the remains of the figures, and people gathered the ashes produced for good luck in the new year. This custom passed all throughout Europe, especiall y in Ital y, where it became a tradition of Lent. Italians would put goodies inside of pots and break them. These pots often looked like the popular food, pineapple. In Latin, the prefix of this translates to piña, which means a cluster of flowers or fruits. This is where the name piñata came from. Inside these clay pots were not onl y candies, but also jewelry and trinkets. People would take turns hitting the piñata, and when it would break, the people would rush out to claim their prizes. This activit y spread to other countries around Europe. It eve ntuall y spread to Spain. Originall y, the piñata represented Satan. It was made to be bright and beautiful to lure innocent people into touching it , representing temptation. The stick used to hit the piñata represented goodness to fight this evil. The perso n hitting the piñata was blindfolded to represent blind faith. Once the piñata broke and let out the goodies, the goodies represented a just reward. Then the piñata s ymbolized 'caridad' or 'charit y' because everyone got to share in the wonderful gifts and blessings. The message was that all were justified through faith in God. The Spanish brought this custom to Mexico through its explorers and conquistadors. The Spanish brought the custom to the Aztec indians, to be specific. The Aztecs willfull y adopted t his activit y because it was strangel y similar to a custom they already practiced.
- 2. The Aztecs decorated clay pots of their own and filled them with treasures to celebrate the birthday of the god of war , Huitzilopochtli. The Aztecs would beat the clay pot, which was strung in front of an image of the god of war, and the treasures would fall to the feet of the image as an offering to him. Since the home of the Aztecs and Mayas was in Mexico, this tradition spread throughout the country. The tradition survive d much longer than the Aztec and Maya civilizations did. As the custom evolved, Mexican artists began to make the piñatas in their own ways, decorating them into objects of their own heritage and using cardboard and paper mache to do so. Today, few people know the original meanings of the piñata. Now, piñatas are mostl y used as a fun activit y to celebrate birthdays and Las Posadas, the time to welcome the Christmas season in Mexico.
