Folk Art Painting

What is folk art? Art produced from native tribes, peasants, and workers Decorative and utilitarian Does not follow the rules of art Culture specific Encompasses a large variety of art specifically ones produced from indigenous tribes, peasants, and other tradespeople Its more of a style, and it can be found in paintings, sculpture, ceramics Its different from fine art in that folk art is purely utilitarian and decorative rather than purely aesthetic It is characterized by its naïve or childlike style in which it does not follow the rule of proportion and perspective Folk art is specific to its culture. Because of this folk art is difficult to describe as a whole.

Characteristics of Folk Art Is not influenced by both academic and fine art Does not include the work of professional artists Naïve art, tribal, primitive, popular, outsider, traditional, tramp, and working class Cultural identity and community values Taught from informal settings Simple, Direct. Colorful. Folk art is not influenced by any movements in both academic and fine art circles Folk art often times excludes the work of professional artists but is sometimes still sold as high art or fine art Folk art can even be termed with naïve art, tribal art, primitive art, popular art, outsider art, traditional art, tramp art, and working class art. Tramp art= “a wanderers art” usually coined as hobby art. Because all these different terms are used to label different forms, it is simply put under the umbrella term folk art What makes folk art unique is that it expresses cultural identiy by conveying the messages of community values It can use a multitude of materials including cloth, wood, paper, clay, metal, and more!if tranditional materials are note available, folk artists will use what is available which results in a more contemporary art form feel It reflects traditional artforms of diverse community groups (ethinic, tribal, religious, occupationals, geographical, age or gender.) Folk artsts usually learn their skill and technique from informal community settings Folk art is simple. Direct. And always colorful.

Antique Folk Art Collected based on merit Not meant to be” arts for arts sake” Signs, carvings, portraits, game boards, etc Is distinguished from traditional art in that it is collected based mostly on artistic merit It was never meant to be “art for arts sake” when it was created These include weather vanes, stone signs, carved figures, itinerant portraits, carousel horses, fire buckets, gameboards, and other whimsical things.

Contemporary Folk Art & its influence Quilting, ornamental framing, decoy carving Often self taught Elito Circa Influenced mainstream art Picasso- African tribes Goncharova- Russian Prints Stravinsky- pagan rituals Includes traditional practices such as quilting, ornamental picture framing, and decoy carving However, contemporary folk artists are frequently self taught, their work is often developed in isolation or in small communities Folk art influenced mainstream art with its unique styles and motifs. Folk art inspired Pablo Picasso (African tribal sculpture and masks), Natalia Goncharova was inspired by Russian popular prints called Iubok. And in music igor stravinskys seminal “the rite of spring” was inspired by pagan religious rituals. A famous artist is Elito Circa who is internationally recognized for his folk art. JE developed his own style without professional training or guidance
