expressions of man’s feelings and thoughts.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of the session, learners are expected to:
a. Define humanities;
b. Distinguish humanities from sciences; and
c. Demonstrate appreciation on the importance of the humanities.

What are the differences and similarities of the Humanities and the Sciences?
The sciences deal with the external world of man, as well as with the facets of man’s being that
can be subjected to observation, measurement, and experimentation.
The sciences enable man to understand and control nature and to harness its energy to make his
life more comfortable and convenient.
The humanities deal with man’s internal world-with his personality and experiences, matters that
cannot be exactly measured, classified, or controlled. The humanities’ approach is subjective; it
makes much use of perception, feeling, intuition, and insight.
The focus of the humanities is on man as an individuals, while in the social sciences the main
interest is on types and groups of human beings, and on the institutions and processes of society.
Importance:
Man needs as image of himself, an understanding of his nature. Through words, tones, mass,
line, color, or design, the arts provide man with a measure of his passions and desires, his
relation with other men and his environment, as well as his potentials.
Both the sciences and the humanities are necessary for the development of the complete, social
man, ready to take on his responsibilities in this rapidly changing world and to enjoy life as he
lives it (Ortiz et al.).
Metaphysics is a part of philosophy which is concerned with understanding reality and developing theories about what exists and
how we know that it exists.

What is an art?
K W L
(What You Know) (What You want to Learn) (What You Learned and still
Want to Learn)
Etymologically, art is derived from the Latin word “ars”, meaning ability or skill. Art is from an
Italian “artis” defined as a human or skill.
“The object of art is to give life a shape.” (French dramatist Jean Anouilh)
“Art is science in the flesh.” (Frenc=h poet and playwright Jean Couteau)
“All art is social,” because it is the result of a relationship between an artist and his time

1. Art is everywhere.
2. Art is not nature.
3. Art is imitating and creating.
4. Art perfects nature.
5. Art message is universal.
6. Art is timeless.
Art has grown out of man’s need to express himself. Expression is not limited to the
revelation of emotions alone. The personal and social values of the artist and his
penetrating psychological insight into human reality are also conveyed through arts.
The artist uses symbols which he organizes into some comprehensible equivalent of
the experience that he is trying to convey. If the symbols are understood by his
audience, then communication has been established.

Introduction
Art works are produced by either an artist or an artisan. Each has his/her own role in the
art arena. However, how could we distinguish an artist from that of an artisan? How could we
know that the art works we are enjoying are created by an artist or artisan? Undoubtedly, people
get confused of these two terms. Thus, this module deals on exploring the differences between
an artist and an artisan.

Discussion
Who is an Artist?
Artists work in the fine arts, including painting, illustration, and sculpture. All fine artists
first learn to sketch, and begin with a pencil and sketchpad to work with an idea on paper. Artists
transfer their vision to canvases or other medium, and this may mean working in oil, watercolor
or pastel. Sculptors take their sketches and create 3D products from clay, marble or other
material. Illustrators might work for a publishing or animation company, or create original comic
books. All artists’ work aims to create an overall reaction from a viewer.
Generally, an artist is defined as an art practitioner who produces or creates indirectly-

FERNANDO AMORSOLO
Fernando Cueto Amorsolo is one of the most important artists in the
history of painting in the Philippines. Amorsolo was a portraitist and
painter of rural Philippine landscapes. He is popularly known for his
craftsmanship and mastery in the use of light.
He painted and sketched more than ten thousand pieces over his lifetime
using natural and backlighting techniques. His most known works are of
the dalagang Filipina, landscapes of his Philippino homeland, portraits
and WWII war scenes.
A closer look at this work will reveal brush strokes executed with the ease of a virtuoso. The
featured painting is considered a masterpiece for the subtlety of its encoded messages, which,
in this case, has been described as national pride. In stark contrast to the increasing
westernization of the urban capital Manila, this work is a celebration of the pristine, rural
Philippine countryside. The scene is bathed in sunlight and features a country maiden. This
work is a fine example of this National Artist’s favorite subject and setting. Amorsolo notes, “My
conception of an ideal Filipina beauty is one with a rounded face, not of the oval type... The
eyes should be exceptionally lively… The nose should be of the blunt form but firm and strongly
marked… The ideal Filipino beauty should have a sensuous mouth…not…white-complexioned,
nor of the dark brown color…but of the clear skin…which we often witness when we meet a
blushing girl.” For Amorsolo, the Filipino beauty was an important symbol of national identity.
The colors of the Philippine flag are evident in the blue kerchief, red skirt, and white blouse.
The subject gazes directly at the viewer, holding a generous bundle of newly harvested rice, a
hope-filled moment for the young Philippines.

JUAN LUNA
Juan Luna is considered one of the greatest Filipino artists in
Philippine history with masterpieces such as Spolarium, The Death
of Cleopatra and Blood Compact. Not only did he excel in artistry,
but he was also a political activist during the time of the Philippine
Revolution during the late 19thcentury. His close friendship with
National Hero Jose Rizal has sparked Philippine nationalism and
pride. Juan Luna was mostly known for his works as being dramatic
and dynamic, focusing on romanticism and realism styles of art.

What you have just learned is an artist. This time, may you get familiar with an artisan.
Who is an artisan?
Artisans are craftsmen who work in textiles, pottery, glass and other areas. They are craftsmen
who make practical artistic products, such as earrings, urns, stained glass and other accessories.
They gain their knowledge by studying under master craftsmen and then practicing with
continued study. They work to create something new, original, and at times, provocative. They
spend a good portion of their time selling and promoting their items in various marketplaces.
In other words, artisans are craftsmen who produce directly functional and or decorative arts.
They help us in meeting our basic needs such as food, clothing, dwelling, furniture, kitchen
utensils and everything that makes our life easy are crafted by artisans.

Recognizing one’s contribution to the development of the Philippine arts simply shows how we
treasure and value our Filipino culture. To give honor for the artists’ efforts, two major awards
(Order ng Pambansang Alagad ng Sining or Order of National Artists and Gawad sa Manlilikha
ng Bayan or National Living Treasures Award) are given.
Learning Outcomes
Discussion
Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan Awards or GAMABA is an award that acknowledges folk and
indigenous artists who, despite the modern times, remain true to their traditions. It is
administered by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) through Gawad sa
Manlilikha ng Bayan Committee.
GAMABA began as a project of the Philippine Rotary Club Makati-Ayala. In 1992, it was
adopted by the government and institutionalized Republic Act No. 7355. This award aims to
support and motivate these artists to preserve their artistic heritage for the present and future
generations. These artists are also recognized as the country’s National Living Treasures.
The GAWAD sa Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) or the National Living Treasures Award
gives recognition to Filipino traditional craftsmen or artisans whose skills have reached a high
level of technical and artistic excellence and who are tasked to pass on to the present generation
knowledge threatened with extinction.
NCCA chairman Felipe M. de Leon , Jr. spearheaded the institutionalization of the award. The
law was authored by senators Edgardo J. Angara, Heherson Alvarez, Leticia ramos-Shahani,
SOtero Laurel and congresswoman Kate Gordon.
On April 3, 1992, President Corazon C. Aquino signed Republic Act No. 7355, providing for the
recognition of the national living treasures, otherwise known as the Manlilikha ng Bayan, and the
promotion and development of traditional folk arts.
On December 17, 1993, the first awarding ceremony for Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan was
held at the Malacaňan Palace.
How does one become a Manlilikha ng Bayan?
To become a Manlilikha ng Bayan”, the candidate must possess the following:

the title of National Artist, you can consider yourself one of the best. By being given the title, it
means you have given significant contributions to the development of Philippine arts and letters.
The recognition is given to those who excel in the fields of Music, Dance, Theatre, Visual Arts,
Literature, Film and Broadcast, and Architecture or Allied Arts.
The very first recipient of this award was painter Fernando Amorsolo, who was touted as the
“Grand Old Man of Philippine Art.” He was the sole awardee in the year 1972, a National Artist
for Visual Arts.
A person who receives this title gets the following honors and privileges:
1. Rank and title of National Artist, as proclaimed by the President of the Philippines;
3. Cash awards, monthly life pension, medical, and hospitalization benefits, life insurance
coverage, state funeral and burial at the Libingan ng mga Bayani (Heroes’ Cemetery), and a
place of honor at national state functions along with recognition at cultural events
There are 66 recognized National Artists to date, with the fields of Visual Arts, Literature, and
Music having the most number of recognized National Artists.
Here are some of the more well-known National Artists of the Philippines:
A man who believes that true Philippine Architecture “is the product of two
great streams of culture, the oriental and the occidental… to produce a new
object of profound harmony,” Leandro V. Locsin is the man responsible for
designing everything you see at CCP Complex – the Cultural Center of the
Philippines, Folk Arts Theatre, Philippine International Convention Center,
Philcite, and The Westin Hotel (now Sofitel Philippine Plaza).
Hailing from the Art Capital of the Philippines, Angono native Carlos
“Botong” Francisco is known for single-handedly reviving the modern art
of murals through works that showed slices of the past. He was such a
prolific muralist that he became its most well-known practitioner for
almost 30 years
One of the few living national artists, F. Sionil Jose is best known for
creating the five-novel masterpiece known as the Rosales 25 saga: Poon;
Tree; My Brother, My Executioner; The Pretenders; and Mass. Set in
the town of Rosales, Pangasinan, it talks about the five generations of
two families, the Samsons and the Asperri, during the Spanish and
American occupation.

Editorial cartoonist and illustrator Alcala’s pen brought to life the cartoon series Slice of Life in
the Weekend Magazine, Mang Ambo in the Weekly Graphic, and Kalabog en Bosyo, the first
comic strip where characters spoke in Taglish. His many works portrayed the idiosyncracies of
the Filipino, especially our ability to laugh at ourselves in the face of great adversity, as
personified in the character of Mang Ambo. The two detectives in Kalabog en Bosyo were
brought to the big screen and played by comedians Dolphy and Panchito in a film by Sampaguita
Pictures. Alcala died in 2002 at the age of 75.
For her work in writing plays, promoting children’s theater, and puppetry, Bonifacio has been
called the “Grande Dame of Southeast Asian Children’s Theater.” She has penned 40 plays, 20
books, and 30 stories, according to panitikan.ph, and was chairperson of the University of the
Philippines’ Creative Writing Program. She founded Teatrong Mulat ng Pilipinas, a children’s
theater and puppetry troupe based in UP.
“Mr C” is perhaps the most famous Filipino composer in recent history. He has composed
musical scores for award-winning films, 10 full-length Filipino musicals, full-length ballets, a
major opera, and a plethora of songs, including beloved classics like “Tuwing Umuulan at
Kapiling Ka” and “Da Coconut Nut.” A force for original Pilipino music, he has spearheaded the
Philippine Popular Music Festival and served as judge in talent shows, like Philippine Idol and
Philippine Dream Academy. He leads the 7-member Ryan Cayabyab Singers.
If Mañosa is a name unknown to you, the same likely cannot be said of his iconic works. The
architect known for his modern interpretation of Philippine architectural design and use of
indigenous materials is behind the Coconut Palace, world-famous Amanpulo Resort in Palawan,
Pearl Farm in Samal Island, Shangri-La Hotel in Mactan, and the San Miguel building in
Mandaluyong, among others. For his pioneering vision and promotion of indigenous Filipino
architecture, Mañosa has garnered many accolades, both locally and internationally.
Mojares is a multi-awarded writer, historian, and literary critic. His works include Origins and
Rise of the Filipino Novel, The War Against the Americans, and books about eminent Filipinos,
such as Vicente Sotto, Pedro Paterno, Isabelo delos Reyes, and Trinidad Pardo de Tavera. He has

Muzones is the preeminent name in West Visayan fiction. He is best known for his Hiligaynon
novel Margosatubig: The Story of Salagunting, about a fictional Muslim state in Mindanao and
the struggles of its hero, Salagunting, to wrest it from the clutches of usurpers. A tale that
combines intrigue, romance, pre-colonial lore, fantasy, and adventure, it unfolded as a series in
the Hiligaynon magazine Yuhum. In 1989, he received the Gawad CCP para sa Sining, an award
given every 3 years to artists whose works have enriched their art form. His proclamation as
National Artist is posthumous as Muzones died in 1992.
Widely regarded as the father of independent Philippine cinema, Kidlat Tahimik (real name: Eric
de Guia) is known for creating films that humorously but evocatively critique neocolonialism. A
native of Baguio City, Tahimik has garnered numerous international and local awards for his
films. His first, Perfumed Nightmare (1977), won the International Critics Award at the Berlin
Film Festival. He has gone on to inspire generations of Filipino filmmakers to forge on with their
independent vision, regardless of commercial considerations. In 2009, he received the UP Gawad
Plaridel Award, the University of the Philippines’ highest award recognizing achievements in
media.

CLASSIFYING THE ARTS
Introduction
Art is classified in different ways. Various authors have their own classification of art.
Generally, arts are grouped into two: major arts and minor arts. Major arts include painting,
architecture, sculpture, literature, music, and dance. On the other hand, minor arts include the
decorative arts, the popular arts, the graphic arts, the plastic arts, and industrial arts.
The arts are generally grouped into two: major and minor arts.

b. Cite examples of each form
Discussion
According to Webster, the major arts involve man’s skills to create works of art that are in form,
content, and execution, aesthetically pleasing and meaning as in music, painting, architecture,
and sculpture. They are called major arts because they appeal to the senses of sight, hearing, and
feeling. They are more notable and conspicuous in effect. On the other hand, the aesthetic factor
in the minor arts lies in the “styling”. They are addressed primarily to the sense of sight and their
usefulness. The minor arts are inferior in degree, especially in the extent of aesthetic quality.
Merriam Webster. Illustrated Contemporary Dictionary, Encyclopedia Edition,(Chicago,
Illinois: J.G. Feguson, Publishing Co., 1987, pp. 718, 757.
According to Manaois, there are two (2) general dimensions of arts, namely, (1) fine arts or
independent arts made principally for aesthetic enjoyment through the senses, especially visual
and auditory such as painting, sculpture, architecture, literature, theater, performing arts, and (2)
practical arts or utilitarian arts intended for practical use or the development of raw materials
for functional purposes such as industrial art, civic art, commercial art, graphic art, agricultural
and fishery art.
Estolas (1995) grouped arts into:
1. Visual Arts. These artworks are perceived by our eyes which may be classified into
graphic arts and plastic arts. Graphic arts have flat two-dimensional surface such as
painting industry. It covers the commercial arts like the design of books, advertisements,
signs, posters and other displays for advertisements. Plastic arts are visual arts which
have three-dimensional forms. Under this grouping are: architectural designs and
construction of buildings and other structures; landscape of gardens, parks, playgrounds,
and golf courses with plants ,trees, vines and ground cover;
2. Performing Arts. These include the theater, play, dance, and music. They involve
movement, speaking and gestures.
3. Literary Arts. These include the short stories, novels, poetry and dramas.
4. Popular Arts. These include the film, newspaper, magazine, radio and television. This
group is characterized as gay and lively.
5. Gustatory Art of the Cuisine. This involves skills in food preparation.
6. Decorative Arts. They are visual objects produced for beautifying houses, offices, cars
and other structures. They are also called applied arts.

different ways and media for the satisfaction and relaxation of man’s mind and
spirit.
Examples: painting, sculpture, architecture

Module 6
Knowing the Subject in Art AND Subject and Content in Art
Introduction
Every time we see a piece of art, the first question we ask is “What is all about?” We are
interested of the image which can be seen in the art. This is what we call subject. Thus, this
module focuses on the subject used in art and the reason of choosing such.
Learning Outcomes
At end of the session, learners are expected to:
a. Distinguish representational from non-representational art;
b. Discuss the different subjects used by an artist; and
32

Art Appreciation JIMBOY B. PAGALILAUAN, AB, BSE
B. Non-representational or non-objective art are those that do not have visible subject.
Music, architecture, and many of the functional arts are non-representational.
They appeal directly to the senses primarily because of the satisfying organization of
their sensuous and expressive elements.
Content refers to what the artist expresses or communicates on the whole in his work.
- Sometimes it is spoken of as the meaning of the work.
- In literature it is called the “theme”.
- It reveals the attitude toward his subject.

2. Still life
- Groups of inanimate objects arranged in an indoors setting such as flower and fruit
arrangements, musical instruments, dishes of food on dining tables.
3. Animals
- The earliest known paintings are representations of animals on the walls of caves.
- In fact, the carabao has been a favorite subject of Filipino artists.
4. Portraits
5. Figures
- The sculpture’s chief subject has traditionally been the human body, nude or clothed.
- The grace and ideal proportions of the human form were captured in religious
sculpture by the ancient Greeks. To them physical beauty was the symbol of moral
and spiritual perfections; thus, they portrayed their gods and goddesses as possessing
human shapes.
6. Everyday life
- Artists have always shown deep concern about life around them.
34

- Rice threshers, cockfighters, candle vendors, street musicians, children at play, etc.
-Most of the world’s religions have used arts to aid worship, to instruct, to inspire
feelings of devotion, and to impress and covert non-believers.
-Some Filipino artists attempted to render in art not only traditional religious themes but
folk beliefs in creatures of lower mythology as well. Solomon Saprid has done statues of
the tikbalang, and some painters have rendered their own ideas about the matanda sa
punso, asuwang, tianak, mankukulam.
Research Work
1. Have a research about the life of Maranaws. Try to look into the value or importance
sarimanok.
2. Look for a piece of art that depicts the history of the Philippines.

Module 7
Ways of Representing a Subject
Introduction
The manner of representing subject matter varies according to the inventiveness and
purpose of each artist. In presenting everything, certain methods are employed in order to be
effective. Just for example, in presenting the art subject, the artist uses different methods to
express the idea he wants to make clear.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of the session, you are expected to:
1. Discuss each of the methods in representing a subject.

Discussion
1. Realism
-In art this is the attempt to portray the subject as it is. Even when the artist chooses a
subject from nature, he selects, changes, and arranges details to express ideas he wants to
make clear. Realist try to be as objective as possible. In realism, the artist main function is
describe as accurately and honestly as possible what is observed through the senses.
- is a common way of presenting the art subject. Example of this are Amorsolo’s
painting.
- tended to stress the daily life of a common man, often concentrating on the sordid
and disagreeable.
-Poetry and drama were influenced by realism, but it was on the novel that realism
achieved greatness
Note:
- In the process of selecting and presenting his material, he cannot help being influenced by
what he feels or thinks.
-Examples of novels who were influenced by the ideas of realism:
1. Edgardo Reyes- Sa mga kuko ng liwanag.
2. Efren Abueg- Dilim sa umaga.
2.Abstraction
This is used when the artist becomes too interested in one phase of scene or situation that he
does not show the subject as an objective reality, but only his idea, or his feeling about it.
-Abstract means “to move a way or to seperate”. Abstract art moves away from showing
things as they really are. The painter or artist paints the picture not as it really are. The
painter of artist paints the picture not as it really looked. The picture is not just life. It is not
“realistic”.
-abstract subjects can also be presented in many ways like:
Distortion - this is a clearly manifested when the subject is in misshapen condition, or the
regular shape is twisted out.
- Example: Henry Moore’s sculptural works and the ancient egyptian paintings and
sculptural works are good examples of this kind.

Mangling-this may not be a commonly used way of presenting an abstract, but there are few
artists who show subject or objects which are cut, lacerated, mutlated or with repeated
blows.

Cubism-it stresses abstract from through the use of a cone, cylinder, or shape at the expense
of other pictorial elements. The cubist want to show forms in their basic geometrical shapes.
-Example: Paul Cezanne’s works played an important part in the development of cubism.
It was further developed by George Braque of france and Pablo Picasso of Spain.
Abstract Expressionism- a style of abstract painting that originated in New York City after
World War II and gained and international vague.
-The term abstract expressionism was first applied to the New York school, whose work
is characterized by great verve, the use of large canvasses, and a deliberate lack of
refinement in the application of the paint.
-In other words, abstract expressionism departs completely from subject matter from
studied precision, and from any kind of preconceived design. Jackson Pollock was one of
the abstract expressionist painters of the New York school.

4. Fauvism- Fauvism is the style of les Fauves (French for "the wild beasts"), a group of
early 20th-century modern artists whose works emphasized painterly qualities and strong
color over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism.This was first
important art movement of the 1900’s. Henry Matisse led the movement and the other
important fauves included Andre Derain, Raoul Drify, George Rouault, all from France.

Discussion
The prehistoric period covers the three periods of Stone Age (roughly from 14,000-2,000
BCE) which include Paleolithic (Old Stone Age), Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age) and the
Neolithic (New Stone Age).
Archeological artifacts reveal magnificent artworks found in caves such as the Hall of
Bulls in Lascaux, France during Paleolithic Period. Contours of animal’s body can be seen in the
drawings evoking naturalism. Some say that these kinds of caves also found in other parts of the
world served as a kind of sanctuary where religious rituals are performed. (Caslib,Jr. 2018).
Development in the civilizations are also seen in the Stonehenge located in Southern
England which until now is a mystery. Its purpose is yet unknown.
Chinese Art. Prehistoric art in China emerged during the period 7500BCE to 2000BCE
characterized by a more settled lifestyle based on farming, rearing of domesticated animals
which led them to create crafts such as pottery and weaving. Though arts for them is functional
artists were able to focus on ornamentation and decoration as well. Jewelry, carvings, sculptures
in wood and stone. Other forms evolved in China which capture the richness of the Chinese
culture. (www.visual –arts-cork.com)
Egypt Art. Egyptian prehistoric art can be described as spiritual and religious. Tombs

were erected for the pharaohs which shelter them as they journey to the afterlife. They decorated
the tombs with the things they use in daily life. Pharaohs are also given absolute authority and
revered as a deity. The pyramids were constructed by workers who painstakingly moved huge
stones and materials ensuring the excellent quality of the outside and inside of it. The palette of
King Namer is larger than the others and some figures such as lion-like figures with intertwined
necks, denoting authority and power of the king. (Caslib,Jr. 2018)
Philippine Art. The Philippines is known for its Manunggul jar, a burial jar, found in
Palawan in the New Stone Age dated 895-775 BC. It represents the artistry and understanding of
early Filipinos about their belief in the journey that a soul travels in the so called life after death
or “kabilang buhay”. The jar’s lid is designed with two human figures representing two two souls
on a vogaye to the afterlife. (www.nationalmuseum.gov.ph.)
The oldest known works of art form from
Philippines prehistory are the Angono
petroglyphs. The Angono petrogylphs are located
on the island of Luzon in Rizal province. A
petroglyph is an engraving in a rock face. It can be
found all over the world and represents the work
of prehistoric peoples. A petroglyph is different
form a petrograph. Petrographs are drawing or
painting on a rock face. Some petroglyphs are
thought to be a form of communication. They may
be maps or even an early form of writing.
Petroglyphs may also have an important cultural
and religious significance to early cultures.

Greek Art. Prehistoric Greek paintings bear motif of sea and nature during the pre-Greek
period. In the next period Egyptian influence can be seen. Human characters are expression of
divine system. Prehistoric sculptures were figures of nude male statues in Daedalic Period. In
Classical age came sculptures of gods and goddesses. The human body became the emphaisis of
art during this period. Moving to later Greek period showed figures of human with minimal
clothing. In architecture, Ancient Greek
temples consist of three architectural orders
called the Corinthian, Ionic and Doric Orders
(Ariola, M.M., 2014).
Parthenon in Athens reflects the Doric
order. It ranks among the masterpieces of
world architecture. It has monumental
entrances or propylae. It is best represented by
The Parthenon, 447-432 BC, Athens

Roman Art. Greek and Etruscan influences were evident in Roman art.
The Roman important contribution to the
development of architecture are: its structural engineering
particularly in developing concrete reinforced by embedded
brick arches and powerful materials for creating new vaults.
These were the flexible groined vault and the dome, and the
(2) engineering design in planning cities in orderly blocks
and in creating the balanced layout of the great civic centers
called forums.(The Development of Western Thought,

The delicious roasted smell of fresh coffee in the morning is what gets most of us though the day. But
what if you could use this incredible brew to create works of art? We are talking today about using coffee
in painting techniques as the primary solution instead of the classical acrylic, oil, watercolor or tempera
paint. You can use the solution following the same basic principles used in watercolor painting,, a
resourceful medium able to create texture, shadows, gradients and depth. Lets set The Basic Coffee

Blockout Poetry
Chances are you’ve seen it before: a full page of text that looks like the
world’s most hard-to-please editor went after it with a thick, black
permanent marker, leaving only a smattering of visible words scattered
across the page. Or, more simply put, something resembling a heavily-
redacted document belonging to the United States government. Sound
familiar? It’s called blackout poetry and it’s been popping up with ever-
increasing frequency on Instagram and Snapchat, in traditionally-published
poetry collections, and even as street art.
But you might be wondering: what about plagiarism? It's a fair question, one that
different writers have different answers for. After all, in composing blackout poetry ,
the poet is technically not writing — they’re erasing what somebody else has
written. Robert Lee Brewer of Writer’s Digest argues that “if you’re not erasing
more than 50% of the text, you’re not making enough critical decisions to create a
new piece of art.” He also notes that crediting the original source is a must.
“Every new idea is just a remix or a mash-up of one or two previous ideas,” says
Kleon, in his TEDx talk. His blackout poetry comes from what he refers to as a
“genealogy of ideas.” Essentially one idea originating from another idea — not
plagiarism, but artistic evolution.

Think you're ready to create your own blackout poetry ? Here's what to keep in
mind:
Know that any original text can serve as a backdrop for blackout poetry —
you don't have to stick with print newspapers. Though, you might not want
to go defacing all your favorite novels... just saying.
Scan for the most striking words first; those words that stand out, repeat, or
speak to the themes you want to explore in your poem.
If you're going the traditional blackout route — redacting text with black
marker — then a great pro-tip is to outline the words you're keeping first,
before proceeding to blackout the rest.
Don’t feel like you have to read your source document in full — start at the
end, jump around, read from right to left; however the muse moves you.
Remember that what you’re eliminating is just as important as what you’re
leaving visible. Some blackout poets have even started creating visual art
— line drawings, paintings, and more — over the redacted text, instead of
simply blacking out the words.
Blackout poetry is a great cure for writer’s block, so be ready for those
creative juices to flow.
Oh yeah, and don’t forget to share your blackout poetry with the world! Use the
hashtags #blackoutpoetry and #newspaperblackout to get started.
