The Philippine Contemporary Art is divided into seven major art forms: visual arts, literature, music,
theatre, dance, architecture and film. Each art form has a significant developments in the contemporary period.

It is an art form that creates works that

are primarily visual in nature, such as ceramics,
drawings, paintings, sculptures, printmaking
design, crafts, photography, video, film making
and architecture.
During the American Period, education
was introduced to the Philippines. There were
Filipinos who studied abroad and influenced the
art making in the country. It was noticeable that Victorio Edades, The Sketch 1928, Oil in Canvas,
96x117cm,https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorio_Edade
during this period, the subjects of artworks s#/media/File:Victorio_Edades_-_The_Sketch.jpg
shifted from rural to urban.
Urban setups became the usual subjects of visual arts. After World War II, artists
started creating proletarian art which depicts the life after the war, social issues and economic
problems. Through the years different artists carrying different style in making arts became
popular and various visual art trends emerged. There were stylistic arts and drawings and
thematic artworks reflecting historical, social, economic, and political themes. Different
mediums were also employed in art making.
7
 8
Indeed, visual arts has developed and transformed over time. The significant
development of the modern and contemporary art in the country only shows how creative,
innovative and free thinkers the Filipinos are.

It is an art form which uses language and

words as medium to create an artistic writing
deemed to have intellectual value. A painter uses
paint, a musician uses musical instruments, a
sculptor uses stone-and-chisel and so a writer

The Philippines and America continued their bond even after the declaration of
independence in 1946 which is evident in the development of modernism. In the field of poetry
during the contemporary period, publication of young poets to campus journals emerged. The
Bagay movement also took the scene. It is a kind of poetry which uses colloquial language and is
built on concrete images which tend to describe experiences. Later on, national consciousness
inserted into Bagay poetry. A long narrative piece about peasant leader. The nationalist spirit of
many writers arose because of the Martial Law. During the contemporary period, the works of
American and British poets influenced the English poems in the Philippines. There are poets who
were influenced by Western poets. Their works revolved on subjects like the search for love and
identity, oppression and those subjects concerning poet’s private worlds. This kind of poetry was
followed by poems containing social issues. And the rise of nationalistic poetry discussing poverty,
inequality, political turmoil, and other social problems started during the Marcos Era.

In the area of short story writing, after World War II, short
stories focused on the self-consciousness and self-expression of the
writer. During the contemporary period, there are also short stories
produced which use vernacular language. However, it was only the
publication of Filipino literary works that continued due to the lack of
moral and financial support, and due to the writers’ choice of
producing works using a language that can be understood by more
readers. Short story writers produced more social conscious fiction
during the 1970s. Short stories depicting the lives of the working class
emerged. Social protest fiction was produced during the Marcos era.

Lacaba/dp/1922181536
In the area of novels, the production of novels with socio-
political themes continued after World War II. English
novelists, on the other hand, like the English poets and short
story writers, focused on the search for identity.
In the area of essay and criticism, literary criticism
was produced after the World War II aiming to analyse the
Philippine writings. Informal essay, on the other hand, also
took the scene which was developed by women writers. The
Contemporary Philippine Literature was a mixture of a
variety of subjects. It is also product of different innovative
techniques of writers.

During the early American period, the

his-song
music of the country was mostly classical due to
the influence of the Europeans. This kind of
music continued flourishing until the 1950s. It
was the 1960s that avant-garde music emerged.
The Philippine music at the time evolved into a
combination of classical and traditional or ethnic
music. As time goes by, due to the introduction
of radio, film and other entertainment
technology, the theatre music that once
flourished gradually declined. However, the
Rondallas or the string bands remain even up to
the present.

Philippine music continuously evolved and Pinoy pop or the Filipino pop music took
place. Pinoy pop covers different forms like jazz, dance hits, folksong revival, rock and roll, rap,
etc. With the development of Pinoy pop, Manila sound was born. This music is characterized as
Western-derived with English lyrics but with pure Filipino spirit. Later on, the OPM or the
Original Pilipino Music became popular. It is a kind of music purely Filipino and is composed and
sung by Filipino composers and singers. The OPM was followed by another form of popular music
called “alternative music”. Folk balladeers influenced alternative music. This type of music
sprouted out of protest that later on included themes like Filipino values, political and
environmental concerns, and other societal themes.

At present, different music genre like

pop, rock OPM, indigenous music,
jazz, rap, a mixture of different genre
like ethnic rock, and many other forms
exist in the music industry. Also, rock
bands and pop stars entered the
limelight.

In the regional set up, through the establishment of the Cultural Centre of the Philippines
(CCP), the Filipino music, as well as the Filipino artists, were given importance. The provincial
councils established and preserved the traditional music and innovated Philippine music.
Indigenous music continuously thrives and spread in different localities. Local composers
continuously create vernacular songs. Moreover, local festivals like the Las Pinas Bamboo Organ
Festival were established.

The American introduced the bodabil or stage show. However, the bodabil in the American
period was not a form of stage play since it was composed mainly of song, dances and skits. It was
during the Japanese period that the bodabil included short melodrama. The educational system
established by the American in the country paved the way to the development of legitimate theatre.
Through Western education, production of Shakespearean plays and other Western contemporary
classics entered the scene.
In the early stage of a Philippine theatre, Western culture greatly influenced theatre
production. Theatre artists tend to imitate popular American actor and actresses. The Philippine theatre
was Americanized. However, later on, because of the exposure to different theatrical styles and
dramatic theories, the Filipinos were able to expand their horizon andstyles

Another is the presentational style which highlights discussion of social ideas. The people in the
field of theatre employed this style during the Marcos regime since realistic portrayal was prohibited.
Presentational style made use of different methods like dance, song, mime etc. to summon ideas from the
audience. Next is the documentary style which tends to discuss historical events.

There are other forms of theatre art that emerged like the dula-dula. This is a short drama-poem.
Musicals with contemporary themes, dance dramas employing ethnic music and choreography, plays
mixing realistic and non-realistic styles and traditional drama forms with contemporary messages are also
among the different theatre art forms of today.

During the first years of the American period, vaudeville or bodabil dancing became popular.
Bodabil is a kind of stage show introduced by the American. Dances like buck-and-wing, tap dancing,
clog, skirt dancing were among the dances being performed in the show. Later on, European classical
ballet entered the scene. There were ballet dance groups from other countries who came to the
Philippines to perform. The huge popularity of ballet led to the birth of many ballet dancers in the
Philippines during that time. The ballet was followed by modern dance.
Modern dance is revolutionary in nature and does not conform to the rules of classical ballet. It
deals with a mixture of a wide range of dances, Western and Asian dances, traditional dances, and other
experimental dances.
Folk and social dances followed the rise of modern dance. This was after Francisca Reyes-
Aquino researched on the Philippine folk dances. Her published research on folk dances influenced
many Filipino dancers to do similar researches. When Reyes-Aquino entered the Bureau of Education,
the bureau integrated folk dances in the educational system which resulted to its wide spread popularity.
Numerous folkloric dances were established later on. There were dance groups that developed Filipino
adaptations of European and American dances like the valse, rigaudon, polka, fandango, jota, etc. These
dance groups integrated traditional customs in these Western dances. Other dance groups revived the
indigenous dance forms commonly performed during rituals and ceremonies by the indigenous groups. 10
 11

Today, the mentioned dance forms are

still alive even in the contemporary setting.
People on the regions still perform traditional and
folk dances especially during fiestas and festivals
like the Sinulog, Maskara, Ati-Atihan, Sayaw sa
Obando, Kadayawan and many other festivals.
Ballet still exists, and ballet schools and
associations were established. Modern dance also
continues to live with more techniques and
innovations.

In the American Colonial and Contemporary Period, Philippine architecture adopted the
modern Western architectural style while taking into consideration the physical and socio-cultural
situation of the country. The Philippine architecture was characterized as simple, rational and
functional. In the early 20th century, young Filipinos who studied in American universities and
institutes went back to the country and brought changes in the Philippine architecture

It was also in the early 20th century when the

Image of Chalet, Country Side Chalet, with Free Scooter,
Booking.com, https://www.booking.com/hotel/ph/el-nido-
countryside-chalets.en-gb.html
“tsalet” (chalet) was developed. It is a type of house
on stills with a front porch made of wood and
concrete. Also, it was during this time when steel was
used in buildings as protection for calamities like
earthquakes. The succeeding generations of architects
changed and deviated from the traditional
architectural style. These architects introduced new
architectural design. Different business emerged at
that time, and there had been a growing demand for
commercial buildings.

It was after the World War II when the architecture in the country departed from the
native tradition. Real estate development started to place, and two-story houses were introduced.
Filipino houses were Americanized. Urban housing, multi-story tenements, and government
housing, slums and shanties started to proliferate. On the other hand, those houses owned by the
upper class were characterized as huge with large front garden. Condominiums also emerged.

Starting from the Marcos era, there had

been construction of expressways, convention
centers, hospitals, hotels, malls, high-rise
buildings, amusements centers, etc. All these
comes with technologies advancements like
escalators, elevators, air-conditioning system,
computers, etc. 11

The film industry in the Philippines started in 1897 through the initiatives of foreign
businessmen. Swiss entrepreneurs were the first to feature film shows in Manila. The film became
popular in 1912 when foreigners Edward Gross and Harry Brown produced the film about the life
of Dr. Jose Rizal, which started the filmmaking in the country.

Philippine film during the early times was greatly influenced by Hollywood since the local
directors set Hollywood movies as their model. However, the Filipino producers still cannot level
with quality of American movies due to outdated technology and limited budget. The only edge of
the Philippine movie during those times was that local films portrayed the lives of the Filipinos and
used Tagalog as its language. The use of Tagalog garnered more audience since the majority of the
Filipinos cannot understand English during those times. The different theatre forms like the
sarswela, sinakulo, and komedya influenced the succeeding film productions. Philippine literature
was also another source of movie themes. There were film adaptations of the works of Francisco
Baltazar’s Florante at Laura and Jose Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo. Other
literary sources like novels and folklore inspired filmmaking.
Due to the boost of the film in the Philippines, film companies were established like the
Philippine Films, Parlatone Hispano-Filipino, Excelsior Pictures, Sampaguita Pictures Inc, LVN
Pictures and X’Otic Films. The number of local movie actors and actresses increased as well. In the
time of Japanese occupoation, the Japanese brought their kind of films, but Hollywood films were
still more appealing to the Filipinos.
In the 1942 movie production stopped and the Filipino went back to watching and
producing stage shows. Movie production resumed after the war. Films produced after the war
contained war stories and heroism like Garrison 13 and Dugo ng Bayan
Philippine started to regain strength and flourished during the 1950s. Four film studios
became prominent and considered as the Big Four. These are LVN, Sampaguita,Lebran and
Premiere. Film awards were also instituted like the Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences
(FAMAS) and Maria Clara Awards. Moreover, Filipino movies, directors and producers started to
be recognized not just locally but internationally like “Ifugao” of Gerardo De Leon, and “Anak
Dalita” of Lamberto Avellana.
