Background Information for Learners


The Nature of Contemporary Art
Contemporary Art consists of expressive art in several forms that are created and produced in
the present specifically in the 21 st Century or roughly from 1960s to the current period. Aside from
those that we commonly have known as the visual art such as paintings, sculpture and the like, Digital
art has also become a unique way of expressing creative emotions using modern tools.
Contemporary art is a breakaway from the established mode of expression. The materials used
the subjects in focus as well as the unique ideas challenged the classics as it goes beyond the usual
nature of art and expression. Abstraction and symbolism become the basic future of the new era in
artistry. Symbolic creative expression became the fundamental nature of contemporary art as it became
free-spirited which is a distinct trait of the modern environment.
