Art-Appreciation

1. Art Appreciation Artists and Artisans

2. LESSON 5: Artists and Artisans An artist is a person who exhibits exceptional skills in the visual and/or the performing arts. A rtists are more sensitive , very perceptive and more creative . They have the knack of interpreting ideas into an artistic form using as their medium the words, pigments, clay, stone, musical notes or any combination that may best represent his message. The artist then gives this experience (substance) form using a skillful composition of the media (paint, stone, movements for example) selected. The arrangement he imposes on his media fits the nature of the materials chosen so as to give the work spontaneity and perfect harmony.

3. The artwork portrays the artist's experience as subject matter, but it uses it after it has passed the artist's sensibilities and has been carefully analyzed, felt and thought.

4. An artisan , on the other hand, is a person who is in a skilled trade that involves making things by hand. He is a craft worker who makes or creates objects of great beauty by just using his hands. His creations may be functional or decorative like an earthen potor palayok ' for cooking or vase for decoration.

5. Artisans focus particularly on the technique and medium of the craft and through experience hone their skills enabling them to reach the expressive levels of an artist. E xamples of artisans' crafts are: furniture, sculpture, glass figurines, metal work, clothing, jewelry, food items, and handicrafts.

6. Handmade products of skilled artisans are priced more than commercial (factory-made) products. Artisans were the dominant producers of consumer products prior to the Industrial Revolution. Locally, in places outside the urban areas, many artisans abound. Some of the well-known are the woodcarvers of Paete , Laguna, the ceramic makers of Tiwi, Albay, the basket weavers of Pangasinan and the piña weavers of Kalibo, Aklan. These local artisans have created products that are recognized and sought after around the world, making the Philippines a nation of highly skilled artisans.

7. Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan Awards or GAMABA is an award that acknowledges folk and indigenous artists who, despite modern technology, remain true to their traditions. They are recognized by the Philippine Government for their invaluable contributions to the preservation of the country's cultural heritage. It is administered by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) through Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan Committee.

8. GAMABA began as a project of the Philippine Rotary Club Makati- Ayala. In 1992, it was adopted by the government and institutionalized through Republic Act No. 7335. This award aims to support and motivate these local artists to preserve their artistic heritage for the present and future generations. These artists are also recognized as the Philippine's National Living Treasures.
