Arts 9 Quarter 3 Module 3: Techniques and Styles of Neoclassic and Romantic Art and Its Influence to Philippine Art Forms • DepEd Tambayan

This is the Arts Grade 9 Quarter 3 Module 3 self-learning module, Techniques and Styles of Neoclassic and Romantic Art and its Influence to Philippine Art Forms. It is an Alternative Delivery Mode module from DepEd Region X (First Edition, 2020), written for Grade 9 learners studying at home and for the teachers and parents who guide them. After working through it, learners should be able to tell Neoclassic and Romantic artworks apart, make their own artworks in these styles, and explain how these movements shaped Philippine art.

What learners will learn

According to the module, learners are expected to:

create artworks guided by the techniques and styles of Neoclassic and Romantic art traditions
apply different media techniques and processes to communicate ideas, experiences, and stories that show the characteristics of the Neoclassic and Romantic periods
evaluate works of art in terms of artistic concepts and ideas, using criteria from the Neoclassic and Romantic periods
take part in an exhibit of completed artworks with Neoclassic and Romantic characteristics
describe the influence of iconic Neoclassic and Romantic artists
show the influence of the Neoclassic and Romantic periods on Philippine art forms

Lessons in this module

Lesson 1: Elements and Principles of Arts in Neoclassical and Romantic Periods. Compares the values, subjects, techniques, lines, and textures of the two styles, introduces three types of Neoclassical architecture, and ends with sculpting and painting activities.
Lesson 2: The Influence of Neoclassic and Romantic Artists to Philippine Art Forms. Shows how Filipino painters and sculptors such as Juan Luna, Felix Hidalgo, Guillermo Tolentino, and Napoleon Abueva carried these styles into Philippine art.

ARTS9-Q3-MODULE3

Neoclassicism versus Romanticism

The module sums up the difference in two words: Neoclassicism stands for reason, Romanticism for passion. Its comparison table is a good review guide:

Element	Neoclassicism	Romanticism
Values	Order, solemnity	Intuition, emotion, imagination
Inspiration	Classical Rome, patriotism, courage, honor	Medieval and Baroque eras, Middle and Far East
Tone	Calm, rational	Subjective, spontaneous, non-conformist
Subjects	Greek and Roman history	Legends, exotica, nature, violence
Technique	Drawing with lines, not color; no trace of brushstroke	Rich, unrestrained color; visible brushstrokes
Role of art	Morally uplifting, inspirational	Dramatic, carries the viewer away
Composition	Most figures in the foreground	Diagonal, crowded compositions
Lines	Linear style with sharply defined outlines	Painterly style with looser brushstrokes
Texture	Smooth	Often shows brushstrokes

Other contrasts the module lists: Neoclassicism favors society over the individual, imitation, tradition, rules and order, and logic. Romanticism favors the individual, originality, experimentation, freedom, intuition, and untouched nature such as woods and mountains.

In sculpture, Neoclassical works show mythological and religious characters and nude figures, while Romantic sculpture is dynamic and emotional, showing the human and natural worlds and animal themes.

Examples used in the activities include Neoclassical works such as Oath of the Horatii by Jacques-Louis David and Psyche Awakened by Cupid’s Kiss by Antonio Canova, and Romantic works such as The Raft of the Medusa and Charging Chasseur by Géricault, Saturn Devouring His Son by Goya, and Departure of the Volunteers by François Rude.

Neoclassical architecture

Neoclassical architecture began in the mid-18th century, turning away from the grandeur of Rococo and Late Baroque. It drew on the buildings of Classical Greece and Rome and on the Italian architect Andrea Palladio. The module describes three types:

Temple style: buildings based on an ancient temple.
Palladian style: based on Palladio’s villas; some have a balustrade, a railing with vertical supports (balusters) along the edge of a flat or low roof.
Classical block style: a rectangular or square plan with a flat roof and repeated arches or columns, giving the look of a large decorated block.

Two ways to make a sculpture

Additive method: materials are put together to build the form, through modelling, constructing, and assembling.
Subtractive method: a solid block is cut, chiseled, chipped, or scraped away to reveal the form.

Influence on Philippine art

Lesson 2 explains that the realism in the works of David, Ingres, Géricault, Delacroix, and Goya influenced many Filipino artists. Famous Philippine artworks featured in the module are:

The Christian Virgins Being Exposed to the Populace by Felix Hidalgo
Spoliarium by Juan Luna
Oblation by Guillermo Tolentino
Pambansang Bantayog ni Andres Bonifacio (Bonifacio National Monument) by Guillermo Tolentino
Siyam na Diwata ng Sining (nine muses of art) by Napoleon Abueva

The activities pair foreign and local works for comparison, such as The Raft of the Medusa with Fernando Amorsolo’s Planting Rice with Mayon Volcano, and Rude’s Departure of the Volunteers with Tolentino’s Oblation.

How to use this module

The module asks learners to write all answers in an exercise notebook or on a separate sheet and to keep the module free of marks.

Start with What I Know, a 5-item multiple-choice test and a 5-item matching test on art media such as oil paint, watercolor, acrylic, engraving, and sculpting.
In Lesson 1, sort words into Neoclassic or Romantic columns, label artworks as RP (Romantic Period) or NP (Neoclassic Period), then study the comparison tables.
Do Activity 4: Carving from the Past, a sculpture of a human, mythological, or animal figure in clay, soap, wood, or another pliable material, scored for quality, visual impact, punctuality, and neatness.
Paint or sketch a Neoclassic or Romantic work about safety against COVID-19 on a quarter sheet of white cartolina, display it at home, and ask three family members to rate it with the rubric.
Evaluate Corot’s A Road at a Ville and Van Gogh’s Starry Night using the nine elements in the table.
In Lesson 2, match artists to artworks, answer the reflection questions, fill in the artists’ techniques and styles table, and finish the performance task: an artwork of hope and encouragement for COVID-19 victims.

Learners should check their pretest and the matching and labeling activities against the answer key at the end, honestly and only after answering. Parents can help by serving as the family evaluators for the home exhibit. Teachers can use the rubrics provided to grade the sculpture and the painting.

NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE

Neoclassical architectural styles started in the mid-18th century. It turned away from the grandeur of Rococo style and the Late Baroque. In its purest form, Neoclassical architecture was a style principally derived from the architecture of Classical Greece and Rome and the architectural designs of the Italian architect Andrea Palladio.

Types of Neoclassical Architecture: Temple Style

Temple style building design was based on an ancient temple. These buildings were uncommon during the Renaissance as architects of that period focused mainly on applying classical elements to churches and modern buildings like palazzos and villas.

Palladian Style

Palladian buildings were based on Andrea Palladio’s style of villa construction. Some of the buildings feature a balustrade which is a railing with vertical supports along the edge of the roof. There are vertical supports within a balustrade known as “balusters” or spindles”. It is also a classical method of crowning a building that has a flat or low lying roof.

Classical Block Style

The building features a rectangular or square plan, with a flat roof and an exterior rich in classical detail. The exterior features a repeated classical pattern or series of arches and/or columns. The overall impression of such a building was a huge, classically-decorated rectangular block.

What’s More

ACTIVITY 4: “Carving from the Past”

Create your own sculpture, either human, mythological, or animal figures.

Material: Choose your material as to your preference such as modeling clay, soap, piece of wood, rock, wire or any usable and pliable medium.

Sculpture is an art form showing the three-dimensional representation of an image. It is free standing and can be seen from different angles. There are two sculptural processes, namely additive and subtractive.

Additive method is when materials are put up together to form the image. This method is done through modelling, constructing, and assembling to build the form.

[photo: figure sculpture made of colored paper collage] https://www.flickr.com/photos/melanie-gail/6917959265/

Subtractive method is when a solid block or mass of material is cut, chiseled, chipped or scraped away to reveal the remaining form.
