Approaches in Researching Contemporary Art Techniques and Practices

More often than not, contemporary artists rely on planning every step of their way to achieve desirable outputs. Concerned with the result of their efforts, they always try to connect their stories and experiences to the viewers and observers in all possible means. They also explore great deals from art supplies and distributors to satisfy their creativity. In the same way, there are those who are willing to learn new art processes, techniques, practices, and styles just to establish their own selfidentification in the world of art. For an artist to give blow of his/her craft, he/she must know how to develop and select potential approaches in ensuring technique appropriateness in his/her state of the art. This aspect is vital in the course of creating systematic and concise plans in developing socially engaged but indigenous-friendly art expressions. Significantly, this module will help you generate effective approaches in selecting potential techniques for targeted artworks. Student like you will acquire deeper understanding and appreciation of many different approaches that can be employed in any chosen art activity. In the same way, this lesson will aid you, in the long run, to be independent in refining your artistic work.

What is It The sense of “artistic knowing” is the heart of integrative art-based processes. In order to gain understanding on an artist’s work, one must be knowledgeable on how does his/her outputs reveal meaning, unravel message, and establish communication. As such, art-based researches are utilized to examine experiences that are essential in developing understanding on certain art-related phenomena. However, this matter is only an obvious concern for those researchers who use art as means of scientific enquiry. And, not to give light on the act of researching about art technique approaches, and processes. Simply put, our focus in this module will be on the “HOWs” of investigating about contemporary art techniques and performance practices.

Typical Approaches in Accomplishing Art Tasks 1. Brainstorming In order to generate ideas on what to do and how to accomplish an artwork, one must know how to brainstorm. This step is effective in looking for central ideas that will most likely boost interest on the matter at hand. It will also provide direction for art making since this will kindle flexible thinking. 2. Researching about the task given Research fuels exploration. The more you explore, the more ideas you will gather. This is best for an artist to clarify what he/she really wants to accomplish. Thus, it simplifies choices and helps achieve proper understanding about the given task. 3. Deciding on what idea to materialize After gathering all inputs from brainstorming and researching, one must have arrived to his/her final choice. On this step, the artist must have acquired enough background or information about his/her target output. 4. Creating a plan of action According to Benjamin Franklin, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” This solidifies one’s stand on planning for any task in contemporary arts. One way to reach success and achieve your goal is to create a solid plan of action. Likewise, a clear criteria and technique will empower one’s determination to accomplish the task. 5. Making the task Finally, this step is the “doing” part. The artist can now materialize the plan that he/she has created. From the final idea to the final plan, he/she must strictly follow what he/she has set to do. Appropriate techniques, materials, styles, and other art elements must be applied as part of the art making process. Approaches in Researching for Techniques and Performance Practices 1. Cooperative Learning Approach Two heads are better than one. This idiomatic expression states that when two or more people share their ideas and work together, they are more likely to accomplish a specific task. In arts, one needs another in order to make things easily done. More so, others will serve as an improvement lens because they may examine or scrutinize the work of an artist. They may also validate gathered researches on techniques based on observation and experience. Those who have mastered arts may share tips as well as guide neophyte artists in improving their craft and eventually finding their own distinctive technique. Generally, cooperative learning approach can increase not only an artist’s skill but also his/her collaborative function with others. 2. Focused Exploration This approach instructs artists to take advantage of what is present in front of their very eyes. It means that they explore the use of any medium available in their area based on their choice. At the same time, equip these local materials with suited technique or art practice. However, the artist 11

must bear in mind that under this approach, he/she will only give focus on the exploration of a specific available material that he/she has not tried to use in any of his/her previous art crafts. Like for instance, the only abundant material in your area is bamboo. As an artist, you are challenged to explore the use of this material as your new medium in art making. Doing so will increase your imaginative skill as well resourcefulness. Discussion The more you talk to people, the more relevant information you will gather. Young artists should lend an opening ear to people who have been in the field of arts for a long time. This entails open but healthy communication between and among artists regardless of their position, experience and mastery. As a cooperative strategy in researching for techniques and practices, you can start it at home by simply asking your parents, family members and relatives who are living with you about their idea or opinion regarding your art-related queries. Spare ample time with them to talk about your task in contemporary arts. Their stories might be a good content. Remember, no one learns in isolation so, better communicate with people in order for you to grow more as an artist. Free Exploration This approach is tantamount to ‘learning/researching on your own’. More than experimentation, an artist like you possesses the full capacity to search on your own without any reservation. No one limits you to look for best artistic style and technique that can be acquired in improving your craft. Look around you and take advantage of anything that would be of greater value when refined by your creative hands. Also, bear in mind that arts can be spontaneous. If you allow your curiosity to flow naturally, then everything will follow and expect to discover more than what you aim for. Experimentation This is actually the core of contemporary arts. As an artist, you are not only limited to using the same technique or practice that you use before. Certainly, there is another door for discovering something new, unique, genuine, and distinctive. In researching for additional techniques in arts, one must not be afraid to go outside the box; one must learn to feed his/her interest in a way that motivates one’s artistic yearning. Through experimentation, an artist’s decision-making skill is improve as well as his/her organization skill. Media Analysis In the advent of modernization and industrialization, technology has greatly influenced innovation and development in the field of artistic expressionism. Consequently, various incorporations have been made in numerous contemporary art techniques and practices. Collaborative approaches to art making have been adapted by many in their initiative to establish their own style. Media analysis, on the other hand, is critical in examining technology-based art pieces. For a young artist like you, one way of searching for more techniques is by investigating if not scrutinizing purpose, value, mood, and socio-political implication of media arts. Through 12

this, you will be able to come up with your filtered stand and eventually construct or enhance your own style of expressing ideas in multiple medium. Advantages of Researching New Techniques and Practices 1. It can push artists to aim for better versions of their works and grab the opportunity to expand artistic horizons. 2. It is a helpful way to immerse oneself in the culture of others and thereby allowing own creativity to design culture-based means of artistic expression. 3. It gives an artist the chance to look for another window that lets him/her see what’s inside other artist’s mind. 4. An artist can express his/her own choice combined with other ideas generated from researches. 5. Best practices of artists are shared to both professional and aspiring ones. 6. It is a powerful thought-provoking strategy because the mind is exposed to new and extensive information. 7. It can be a kick-start for an artist’s inspiration and ignite a spark to get the passion even more alive. 8. It enables the artist to plan for a multi-faceted, captivating, and detailed final output. 9. It exposes one to new discoveries and perspectives. 10. It encourages the artist to spot unusual angles and try modern art techniques. 11. It teaches new style and additional comfort of one’s artistic specialization. 12. It adds pro art techniques with a mix of traditional and contemporary insights to an artist’s vocabulary.
