REALISM
Presented by - ???
 REALISM

This is the attempt to depict the subject

as it is in art. Even when the artist
chooses a natural subject, he alters,
and organizes details to convey the
message he intends to convey. Realists
strive to maintain as much objectivity
as possible. The artist's principal job in
realism is to express what is perceived
through the senses as accurately and
honestly as possible.

ABSTRACTIO

Presented by - ???
 ABSTRACTION
This is used when an artist becomes so engrossed in one
aspect of a scene or scenario that he fails to depict the
topic as an objective reality, instead focusing on his notion
or feeling about it. "To move away or separate" is what
abstract means.
Abstract painting steers clear of depicting things as they
are. The painter or artist does not depict the scene as it is.
The painter or artist does not depict the scene as it
appeared. The image isn't exactly like life. It's not even
close to being "realistic."
 03
SYMBOLIS
M
Presented by - ???
 SYMBOLISM
In general, a symbol is a visual representation of
something unseen, such as an idea or a trait. It can
be as simple as a symbol or emblem, such as a
percent signifying percent, a lion signifying courage,
or a lamb signifying meekness.
These well-known symbols are the result of common
usage, association, and widespread association. For
works of art, the traditional sort of symbol is present.
The symbol, on the other hand, has more freedom in
poetry and painting. It goes beyond the ordinary
symbol to take on a new and exciting meaning, arising
from a highly personal and even unique link formed in
the imagination of the poet or painter.

FAUVISM
Presented by - ???
 FAUVISM

This was the first significant art trend of

the twentieth century. The movement
was pioneered by Henry Matisse, and
other notable fauves included Andre
Derain, Raoul Drify, and George
Rouault, all of whom were French.
05
DADAISM
Presented by - ???
 DADAISM

A group of artists and poets in Zurich, Switzerland, founded

the process movement of the arts in 1916. The name
"Dada," a French word that means "hobby horse," was
chosen since it seemed illogical.
 06
FUTURISM
Presented by - ???
 FUTURISM

It arose in Italy around the same time as Cubism did

in France. Their paintings celebrated modern life's
mechanical force, which featured automobiles,
motorcycles, and railroads.

SURREALI

Presented by - ???
 SURREALISM
Andre Breton, a French poet, started this
art and literature movement in Paris in
1924. Surrealism, like Dadaism, uses art
as a weapon against the problems and
constraints that surrealists see in society.
Unlike Dadaism, il aspires to show a
greater and more transcendent truth
than that of everyday life. Surrealism is an
invented word meaning super realism
this movement was influenced by the
Freudian Psychology which emphasizes
the activities of the subconscious state of
the mind.

ELEMENTS OF ART

To understand a particular work of art, you

must have the knowledge of the elements of
arts for you to be able to examine and
appreciate it more. Being aware of the
elements educates your senses and enriches
your lives. Hopefully, reviewing the elements
of arts will make you more conscious that be
able to retrieve these elements when you find
cause for them and when you start creating
your own pieces of art.
 TABLE OF CONTENTS
The following is a list of what you will learn during this presentation :

The different elements used by artists in presenting the art subjects :

 Line
 Shape and Form
 Value and Tone
 Color
 Space
 Texture

LINE
Presented by - ???
 REALISM

It is the most basic of all the elements. It's a

path traced by a moving point that can be
identified. A line can be horizontal, vertical,
or diagonal. Horizontal lines convey a sense
of rest, infinity, and perfect stability because
objects parallel to the earth are at rest;
vertical lines convey a sense of height,
dominance, or power because they are
pointing or extending toward the sky; and
diagonal lines convey a sense of action,
movement, unrest, or uncertainty because
they are pointing or extending toward the
sky. A curving line gives the impression of
smoothness, softness, and continuity.
02
SHAPE AND
FORM
Presented by - ???
 SHAPE AND FORM
When the ends of a line meet, they form a two-
dimensional figure (length and width). As a result, lines
are commonly used to define shapes such as circles,
square triangles, and rectangles. Form, on the other
hand, exists in three dimensions (length, width, and
height) and can be seen from multiple angles. It could
be geometric (circles, squares, rectangles, cubes, and
cylinders) or organic (circles, squares, rectangles, cubes,
and cylinders) (irregular or asymmetrical, and complex).
Buildings, chairs, tables, and other popular terminology
use geometric shapes and forms, but organic shapes and
forms are widespread in nature.
 03
VALUE AND
TONE

VALUE AND TONE

It refers to the relative brightness or darkness of

observable objects. It has something to do with the
amount of light in a piece of art. It's a crucial part of
creating the illusion of depth. Chiaroscuro is an
Italian term for the contrast between light and dark
in art. It is a technique that heightens the emotion in
a painting while simultaneously emphasizing the
subject.

COLOR
Presented by - ???
 COLOR
It's the sum of multiple wavelengths of light reflected off an
object. In a nutshell, color is dependent on light. As a result,
when the light is dim, it is more difficult to discern color.
Color is, in fact, what the eyes see when light reflects off an
item. Hue, value, and intensity are the three qualities of
color. The quality by which we discern colors is referred to
as hue. When individuals discuss the color of an object,
they are referring to the hue of that object. In a color
wheel, the link between colors is plainly seen. As previously
stated, values refer to the lightness or darkness of a color.
The brightness or dullness of a hue, or the relative purity of
a color, is referred to as intensity, or saturation.
05
SPACE
Presented by - ???
 SPACE

It is a term used in the arts to

describe the distance between,
around, above, below, and within
objects. Positive space refers to
the area occupied by the shape,
whereas negative space refers to
the area surrounding it.
 06
TEXTURE
Presented by - ???
 TEXTURE

It relates to the quality of the surface. It relates to

how objects feel, or appear to feel, when they are
touched. Actual texture is the physical quality of an
object. This is discovered by touching the thing. Our
perception of artwork is influenced by visual texture.
Even before we touch a surface, we can tell how it
feels just by looking at it.

The following is a list of what you will learn during this presentation :

The different principles used by artists in presenting the art subjects :

 Balance

 Rhythm
 Emphasis and Subordination
 Unity and variety

BALANCE PROPORTION RHYTHM

 01
BALANCE
Presented by - ???
 BALANCE

It is an artistic notion involved with

organizing materials so that no one part of a
piece dominates or appears to be heavier
than the others. Asymmetrical or informal
balance and symmetrical or formal balance
are the two types of balance. Formal
balance, also known as symmetrical balance,
refers to two sides that are visually equal
and have the same visual weight.
Asymmetrical balance, also known as
informal balance, refers to two sides that are
not similar yet have the same perceived
weight.
02
PROPORTION
Presented by - ???
 PROPORTION

It is the principle of an art that is in

question. With the interrelationships
between parts and between parts and
the whole. It is a belief that’s a well-
proportioned shape is pleasing to the
eye.
 03
RHYTHM
Presented by - ???
 RHYTHM

Like musical rhythm, visual rhythm is characterized by the

repetition or alternation of elements in an artwork to create
a sense of movement, unite a composition, and establish a
pattern or texture. The presence of rhythm creates order or
development an artwork. There are four kinds of rhythm -
Regular, flowing, progressive, and alternating. Regular
rhythm occurs when the intervals between the elements, and
the elements themselves, are similar in size or length. a
flowing rhythm signifies directional movement. A
progressive rhythm shows a developing Sequence of forms.
An alternating rhythm displays alternation of elements and
may be applied to all kinds of rhythms.

EMPHASIS AND
SUBORDINATION
Presented by - ???
 EMPHASIS AND SUBORDINATION
Emphasis is a design approach that distinguishes a
work by drawing attention to specific elements and
assigning importance or dominance to a unit or area.
Subordination is when you give something less
weight and purposefully make other parts of the
composition less aesthetically appealing.
05
UNITY AND
VARIETY
Presented by - ???
 SPACE

The coherence of the elements of a work

to the total is referred to as unity, also
known as harmony. It's when all of the
design elements and concepts come
together to create a fulfilling sense of
belonging and relationship for the viewers.
To provide a sense of order and continuity
in an artwork, it is critical to have design
unity. Variety, on the other hand, alludes to
a piece of art's diversity. To avoid
monotony and homogeneity in the design,
variations are created.
