Compare and contrast the concepts of art according to Western thought and Filipino notion of
personhood or pagkatao. Explain briefly.

Western thought

According to western thought is the portrayal in
two or three dimensions of the history, people
landscape and wildlife of the area confined to the
western regions of north America, in a highly
realistic impressionist style and is inextricably
linked to the culture of the American west.
Filipino notion
of personhood
or
pagkatao.
Filipino notion of personhood or pagkatao.
The Filipino notion it talks about thee Filipino
personhood or it called “kapwa” this idea of a
“shared self” opens up the hearts-door of the l
to include the other. It bridges the deepest
individual recess of a person with anyone outside
him or herself, even total strangers. Here it is
not important if you are rich or poor or status
in society.

Compare
One positive way of looking at Filipino identity in the art is to see Philippine art as integrated in
western art, and these two traditions are uniting and harmonizing with one another.
