Yan'an Forum
The Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art () was a May 1942 forum held at the city of Yan'an in Communist-controlled China and significant event in the Yan'an Rectification Movement. It is most notable for the speeches given by Mao Zedong, later edited and published as ''Talks at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art'' () which dealt with the role of literature and art in the country. The two main points were that (1) all art should reflect the life of the working class and consider them as an audience, and (2) that art should serve politics, and specifically the advancement of socialism. The excesses of the latter point during the Cultural Revolution led to current Party policy rejecting that point, but retaining Mao's encouragement of peasant-focused art and literature. Background During the Long March (1934-1935), the Communist Party and People's Liberation Army used song, drama, and dance to appeal to the civilian population, but did not have a unified cultural policy.

Protest Art Against The Marcos Dictatorship
Protest art against the Marcos dictatorship in the Philippines pertains to artists' depictions and critical responses to social and political issues during the presidency of Ferdinand Marcos. Individual artists as well as art groups expressed their opposition to the Marcos regime through various forms of visual art, such as paintings, murals, posters, editorial cartoons, and comics. Many forms of protest art carried themes of social realism, which art historian Alice Guillermo defines as ''art that aims to expose the true conditions of society''. Popular forms of protest art also served as materials used in protest rallies. Many works of art represent struggles of the working class, such as workers and the urban poor, women's struggle, tribal Filipinos, the clergy and religious, and the antifascist, anti-colonial, and anti-imperialist struggles. Prominent artists and art organizations Protest art against the Marcos dictatorship began during his first presidential term in 1965– ...

Concerned Artists Of The Philippines
''Concerned: The Half-Life and Death of Gordon Frohman'' is a webcomic by Christopher C. Livingston that parodies the first-person shooter video game '' Half-Life 2''. The comic is illustrated with screenshots of characters posed using '' Garry's Mod'', a tool which allows manipulation of the Source engine used by ''Half-Life 2''. The comic ran from May 2005 to November 2006 and had 205 issues. While ''Half-Life 2'' follows protagonist Gordon Freeman in a dystopian future, ''Concerned'' follows "Gordon Frohman", a dangerously clumsy character who arrives in the setting of the game a few weeks before Freeman does. The webcomic's dark humor is derived from its contrasts with the game and through references to the game's shortcomings. On several occasions in the comic, Frohman becomes the cause of various disastrous circumstances that Freeman will later encounter. Several reviews of ''Concerned'' praised the attention to writing and presentation and the comic's humor. Living ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
