 Contemporary Art Forms

• According to Perez (2016), the arts are classified in

distinct forms: music, dance, theater, visual arts, literature,
film, broadcast arts, architecture, design, and allied arts.
• However, the arts in the regions have evolved and taken a
new form. The arts have combined to create integrative art.

resulting in the combination of arts.

musical composition, visual design, theatrical
performance, and cinema.

movements usually accompanied by music.
