Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Folk Art


1
Folk Art
  • Folk art describes a wide range of objects that
    reflect the craft traditions and traditional
    social values of various social groups. These art
    works from 'common folk' are generally produced
    by people who have little or no academic artistic
    training.
  • Folk Artists, or artists termed as Folk Artists
    normally have been working in a particular medium
    for tens of years and have gained design and
    compositional skills through natural ability and
    practice. Their work can seem somewhat childlike,
    but is rich in color, design and composition and
    is appreciated for these strengths along with
    its naïve quality.
