The selection of the artist was based on meeting at least two of the following criteria： （1） The artist should have a major award（s） in any prestigious national fine arts contests which included the MADE （Metrobank Art and Design Excellence）, A.AP （Art Association of the Philippines）, Petron, GSIS （Government Service Insurance System）, and the Biennial Dumaguete Open Terra Cotta Festival contests; （2） He/she should have had one-man or two-man exhibitions at reputed galleries; and （3） He/she should be active in the local art scene, meaning, a continuous schedule of exhibits during the past three years. Mostly self-taught, the artists＇ artistic inclinations manifested early in childhood when they discovered their talents; this led to their resolve to seriously pursue with enduring fervor their art careers. Their sense of calling amid a less ideal art scene did not give way to the voice of conformity but they have maintained a clear sense of identity and destiny as inspiring art icons in their milieu. The analyses of the works of these artists lead to the observation of the Panayanon artistic tradition. Aside from the formalist descriptions of the artworks＇ features, the analyses go further into the contextual and evaluative levels that reveal a highly nuanced meaning and semantic richness of the works. The paintings and sculptural pieces of the artists are expressions of their true ＂voices＂, fresh innovations that have earned accolades even if these innovations are untamed by the academe展开更多

While there is much that is positive in Bourriaud＇s ideas in the first sense, its translation into a studio situation is problematic. Offering a corrective through Lacanian psychoanalysis, with acknowledgement of additional figures with corresponding ideas, it is proposed that Bourriaud＇s ideas are valuable additions to pedagogy generally but are equally in need of modifications that encompass a critical understanding of the desire structures of both students and faculty.展开更多

With the development of graffiti art and the improvement of people＇s aesthetic idea, graffiti has penetrated into various aspects of people＇s life and has been closely integrated with people＇s life in many fields. Fashion design is one of the forms which have the closest relation with modem graffiti. Many famous brands have increased their own vitality and fashion sense of costume through graffiti. In modem fashion design, graffiti has special aesthetic value and personality characteristics, bringing about huge commercial opportunities to merchants. Its personality expression in fashion design involves factors in multi-aspects. This paper makes an in-depth analysis of this problem in simple terms, which is of positive significance to the combination of graffiti and fashion design.展开更多
