Question 1
Which art category includes Video, Photography, Computer, Film and Broadcasting, Architecture, Design and Allied Art?
Correct Answer:
Applied Arts
Explanation:
The main idea is recognizing which category groups media-based and design-driven fields that apply artistic skills to real-world practice. These areas—video, photography, computer media, film and broadcasting, architecture, design, and allied arts—are organized under Applied Arts because this category focuses on art that serves practical function and everyday use, blending aesthetics with purpose in media, objects, and environments. Literary Arts centers on writing and literature, not on design or media production, while Integrative Art emphasizes blending disciplines into a single work rather than categorizing these fields under one umbrella. So, the best match is Applied Arts.
Question 2
Uwang Ahadas was a GAMABA Awardee in which year?
Correct Answer:
2000
Explanation:
Uwang Ahadas is celebrated as a master of traditional Mindanao music, recognized for his mastery of the kulintang and for passing this heritage on to younger musicians. He was conferred the National Living Treasures Award in 2000, the year officially recorded for his GAMABA recognition. The other years listed correspond to different artists who received the award in those times. This annual honor honors living artists who preserve and transmit important cultural traditions, and 2000 marks the moment he was acknowledged for his contribution.
Question 3
Which principle describes the distribution of visual weight and stability?
Correct Answer:
Balance
Explanation:
Distributing visual weight to achieve a sense of stability is balance. Visual weight comes from elements like size, contrast, color, and texture—things that draw the eye. A balanced composition feels stable because the elements counterbalance each other, whether symmetrically (even on both sides) or asymmetrically (different-weighted parts that still add up to an even overall feel). Proportion is about the size relationships within the artwork, harmony is about how related elements create unity, and emphasis is about making a particular area stand out; these describe other ways art can organize its parts, but only balance directly addresses how the entire composition feels stable.
Question 4
Which principle refers to the arrangement of elements to create a sense of unity?
Correct Answer:
Harmony
Explanation:
Harmony refers to the arrangement of elements to create a sense of unity across the whole composition. When colors, lines, shapes, textures, and values share a consistent feel or motif, the artwork reads as a single piece rather than a patchwork of parts. Repetition, similarity, and orderly alignment help the viewer move smoothly through the piece, reinforcing unity. Harmony doesn’t shout a focal point; instead, it ties everything together so nothing feels out of place. Emphasis directs attention to a specific area, balance concerns the distribution of visual weight for stability, and proportion deals with size relationships between elements. Because harmony specifically fosters that cohesive, unified impression, it’s the best answer.
Question 5
Which of the following is a National Artist of Film?
Correct Answer:
Gerardo de Leon
Explanation:
National Artist for Film is the highest honor given to someone who shaped Philippine cinema. Gerardo de Leon is recognized in this field for his influential work as a filmmaker, contributing significantly to the development and artistry of Filipino cinema. The other names listed are celebrated in different disciplines: Virgilio S. Almario and Cirilo F. Bautista are National Artists for Literature, while Leandro V. Locsin is a National Artist for Architecture. Hence, the film-specific honor goes to Gerardo de Leon.
