Lesson 4: Who is an Artist?

1. On artist rivalry

A. If you can meet Leonardo da Vinci today, what kind of person do you think you would encounter? Based on the comic strip above, write your assumptions below:
- Based on the comic strip, Leonardo strikes me as a dedicated individual who analyzed and thought deeply before creating a work of art. Leonardo is a person who hyas a dedication to the things that he love to do.

B. How about Michelangelo? What type of personality does he have? Briefly describe him form what you have read in the strip.
- Michelangelo is a person who’s someone intelligent, well-respected, and able to express their own opinions.

C. How do you think can artist use rivalry constructively? How about envy? How can it be used positively?
- Rivalry in the arts can help one enhance their artistic style and abilities. An artist's lifetime cycle of trying to outdo his rival can result in prospects for development. In envy, an artist can create a great artwork so others can notice it.

2. On Emulation
Think of three to five people you really admire and want to emulate. They may be link to the areas of talents or skilss and even interest. List them below.
Kathryn Bernardo – Actress
D.O Kyungsoo – Singer
Alyssa Valdez – Volleyball player

Analysis:
What do you think about these people, what makes them great? What do you feel when his or her names comes into your mind? Write your reflections below.
- I view these people as my role models since they are amazing and courageous enough to follow their dreams. They are amazing because they inspire me to follow my ambitions and give my all in every aspect of daily life.

3. On inclusivity
Analysis:
What did the article tell about the artist? What happened to him? How did he adapt to his disability? What can you reflect on the reality of physical limitations ( or even mental, e.g., dyslexia, depression, schizoprhenia) and the challenge that this poses to artists?
- As shown by this article, challenges in life do not stop us from achieving our goals. The fact that we are determined to accomplish something we love is not a barrier to achieving it. Like Chuck Close, he uses his disability as inspiration to become a well-known and a great artist.

APPLICATION:
Write a short biography of an artist whom you know but is not yet establsihed in the art scene.
Mervin Branzuela (born 28 December 1907) is a not known artist with a modern visual arts. His works with oil and encaustic on canvas have been described as "late capitalist masterpieces marred by illogical marks, haze, and aggregations of reality that not only displaces portraiture as the totemic symbols of power and status but questions the formation of identity itself as the trap where a man cannot go forward"

Mervin was awarded in school as a Best artist in 2014 when we we’re in high school. He pursue his dream after we graduated in high school and studied in University of Mindanao get a course of fine arts and fulfill his dreams to become a successful artist . Suddenly Mervin has denied that economic success informs his paintings, and states that his works are instead antagonistic to the dictatorship and reification of the market. His projects seek a re-evaluation of some of the most fundamental positions that art has assumed in the past. But Mervin didn’t stop and make a canvas. Mervin said that these spaces seem to be about his identity as well. Art cohabits a relation with spaces, and people as well, including teachers and friends who have allowed him to evolve, and share the life he has lived with them. He talks about his art as a matter of ideas that come from these everyday encounters with the world. And at this point, it is this art that seems to define him as a person who relates to his surroundings as well. Mervin finds inspiration in anything and everything-a candy wrapper, a moment, debris. He takes much from the past and speaks of it in the present, where nostalgia doesn’t necessarily mean memory as it does an assertion of what remains relevant and real across time. Mervin begins with ideas and challenges himself to transform them into a visual form-the only one he feels is powerful enough to carry his message. The materials to use, and the ways in which they will be utilized, are all part of the concept. They enjoin together after the decision is made that an idea is worth its value in paint and hard work. And then mervin apparently, flies with it. The challenge to him has been the creation of something powerful and interesting. This beauty can represent the kind of life he sees and loves and knows. Mervin finds solace in the urban spaces he occupies and imagines this space as distinctly pregnant with meaning and ideas and visual possibilities. It’s an interesting view of the contemporary fast-paced city life that we all are part of. At most, it is a powerful rendering of the lives we live by someone who now knows the identity and the owning of his spaces.

ASSESSMENT:
1. What are the issues that artist face in terms of interpersonal and intrapersonal dimensions? What causes these conflicts?

- Interpersonal conflicts is heavily influence by the larger structure of an organization such as lack of role clarification, poor processes, Communication problems, lack of performance standards, lack of resources, unreasonable time constraints these are the causes of the conflicts of the artist. And also add the issue of rivalry and comparison to each individual artist some of the artist take it negative but their are such thing of this, makes it positive, others take this as positive by encourage their selves to be more than great to what other achieve.

2. In your opinion, what constructive ways to approach these chalengges? Instead of focusing on the problems, how can they benefit the people concerned?

- Conflict is an inevitable part of close relationships and can take a negative emotional toll. It takes effort to ignore someone or be passive-aggressive, and the anger or guilt we may feel after blowing up at someone are valid negative feelings. However, conflict isn’t always negative or unproductive. In fact, numerous research studies have shown that the quantity of conflict in a relationship is not as important as how the conflict is handled. Improving your competence in dealing with conflict can yield positive effects in the real world. Since conflict is present in our personal and professional lives, the ability to manage conflict and negotiate desirable outcomes can help us be more successful. In professional settings, the ability to engage in conflict management, sometimes called conflict resolution, is a necessary and valued skill. However, many professionals do not receive training in conflict management even though they are expected to do it as part of their job

Assessment:

When you hear the words now on 'art criticism', you might first imagine people standing in an art gallery furrowing their brows as they point out the flaws in a painting. You might even think of this scene from the movie 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off.' But art criticism is more than just commenting on a work of art or pointing out what's wrong with it. In fact, art criticism is the act of analyzing and evaluating any type of art. And I accept what is placed before me .

The Fall Man BY :Cornelisz van Haarlem

Method 1 : Iconography

In his artwork he used oil on canvas, h 273cm × w 220cm. In the left background, we see God (a cloud with a human face and hands) cautioning Adam and Eve. They may eat the fruit of all of the trees, except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil'. The figure of the serpent-woman who tempts Eve with fruit from the Tree of Wisdom, the different creatures and their symbolic meanings and the idealized characters of Adam and Eve are three major aspects of the work

Method 2 : Biography and Autobiography

Cornelisz van Haarlem is known among art historians as a member of the Haarlem Mannerists, who were highly influenced by the work of Bartholomeus Spranger, whose drawings were brought to Haarlem by Carel van Manderin 1585, and had a strong immediate effect. He painted mainly portraits as well as mythological and Biblical subjects. Haarlem died on 11 November1638 (aged 75–76).

Method 3: Semiotics
The fall of man, the fall of Adam, or simply the Fall, is a term used in Christianity to describe the transition of the first man and woman from a state of innocent obedience to God to a state of guilty disobedience

LESSON 2: HOW DO I STUDY ART? : MAKING ART

ASSESSMENT:
1. How do you think these elements and principles are coherent/parallel with other art disciplines (music, dance, etc.). Do you think it makes sense that they are called elements and principles?

- The elements of art are arranged in a work of art according to organized principles. To create balance, harmony, unity, rhythm, proportion, variation, emphasis, and movement in a piece of art, the elements might be put in the right order.

2. Do you think it is necessary to study first these knowledge for a person to be able to create a good work of art? Why or why not? Do these terms pre-empt an artist's experience through solid facts? Why or why not?
- Yes. It is important to have a knowledge to create art because art helps open up the mind-set of the people, by listening to different perspective and views as well as interpretations of the art, it encourages thoughtful conversation and the understanding that there is more than one approach to everything.

3. What can you say about the experience of creating something for artistic purposes? From the last activity you performed, can the process help you to think of a related concept or idea? If you were to use the products of the application part, how and in what concern or issue? Challenge your mind to think out of the box and compose something thought-provoking

- The activity shows us that creating an art is not easy as we think. But through art we can express our emotions, thoughts, ideas and how we appreciate the things around us. Every work of art has a purpose for its creation.
