  • Parangal for Pacita Abad
    SPEECH BY CORAZON ALVINA PACITA ABAD: CURATING PACITA ABAD Jack (Mr Garrity), Butch - Department of Education Secretary Florencio Abad, Ateneo University President Father Bienvenido Nebres - also a trustee of the National Museum Board, ALIWW officers specially Ms Felice Sta Maria and Edna, Rita Ledesma, friends and other relations of Pacita, ladies and gentlemen: In my tour of duty as director of the Metropolitan Museum of Manila, I had the pleasure and privilege to curate, cocurate, organize and otherwise engage in projects with Pacita Abad. Though she had been a friend since university days at the University of the Philippines, we had lost touch through her residence and praxis in other parts of the world. So that when the exhibition schedule of the Met was turned over to me when I assumed office there, I was pleased to see that one of the plans was to have an exhibition of artwork, size big, featuring the trapunto of Pacita, and extremely large mix media works, for wall and floor, by Paz Abad Santos. I was tasked to curate this show, and to this day I consider it one of the most exhilarating exhibitions I had ever put together. It was also delightful, not like work at all. It was not wracked with angst; it was not marked by bitter battles as sometimes occur in the course an exhibition from conceptualization through installation - and after -- between artists and curators over independence and freedom in creation and expression on the one hand, and the curatorial muscle that some of us sometimes flex for museology, for personal curatorial ideologies, and in compliance with the museum's exhibition theories and education policies.

  • SOURCES and INFLUENCES the Sources and Influences of The
    SOURCES AND INFLUENCES The sources and influences of the visual arts in the Philippines may be classified according to the three principal cultural traditions found in the country; the indigenous tradition, which is evidenced by the arts of the natives in the long period before colonization, the arts of the non-hispanized ethnic communities today, and the lowland folk arts which fuse ethnic and colonial aspects; the Spanish tradition, which is seen in the religious paintings and prints, academic paintings, landscapes, portraits, letras y figuras (letters and figures), still-lifes, and other art works done by unschooled and schooled Filipino artists during the Spanish period from 1565 to 1898; and the Euro-American tradition which came in via the Americanized educational system and media and which has been indigenized in the painting and sculptures done by Filipino artists from the 1930s to the present. The Ethnic Tradition Evidences of the ancient arts are the artifacts unearthed in archaeological excavations, which include earthenware, body ornaments and jewelry, and textile fragments. An important body of earthenware consists of burial jars. The ancient tradition of jar burial was diffused throughout the southern part of the Asian mainland, the Malay Archipelago, and the Southeast Asian region, including the Philippines. This practice was related to the tradition of “grave furniture” in which the dead were buried along with various articles of everyday use such as eating utensils and weapons, and in the case of the nobility, with servants and domestic animals. The Manunggul Jar with its lid bearing two rowers in a boat is related to the Southeast Asian belief that the dead ride “spirit boats” across a body of water to reach the other world.

  • FRISSON: the Collected Criticism of Alice Guillermo
    FRIS SON: The Collected Criticism of Alice Guillermo Reviewing Current Art | 23 The Social Form of Art | 4 Patrick D. Flores Abstract and/or Figurative: A Wrong Choice | 9 SON: Assessing Alice G. Guillermo a Corpus | 115 Annotating Alice: A Biography from Her Bibliography | 16 Roberto G. Paulino Rendering Culture Political | 161 Timeline | 237 Acknowledgment | 241 Biographies | 242 PCAN | 243 Broadening the Public Sphere of Art | 191 FRISSON The Social Form of Art by Patrick D. Flores The criticism of Alice Guillermo presents an instance in which the encounter of the work of art resists a series of possible alienations even as it profoundly acknowledges the integrity of distinct form. The critic in this situation attentively dwells on the material of this form so that she may be able to explicate the ecology and the sociality without which it cannot concretize. The work of art, therefore, becomes the work of the world, extensively and deeply conceived. Such present-ness is vital as the critic faces the work in the world and tries to ramify that world beyond what is before her. This is one alienation that is calibrated. The work of art transpiring in the world becomes the work of the critic who lets it matter in language, freights it and leavens it with presence so that human potential unerringly turns plastic, or better still, animate: Against the cold stone, tomblike and silent, are the living glances, supplicating, questioning, challenging, or speaking—the eyes quick with feeling or the movements of thought, the mouths delicately shaping speech, the expressive gestures, and the bodies in their postures determined by the conditions of work and social circumstance.

  • Gender As the Elephant in the Room of Southeast Asian Art Histories
    Art on the Back Burner: Gender as the Elephant in the Room of Southeast Asian Art Histories Eileen Legaspi-Ramirez Southeast of Now: Directions in Contemporary and Modern Art in Asia, Volume 3, Number 1, March 2019, pp. 25-48 (Article) Published by NUS Press Pte Ltd DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/sen.2019.0002 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/721044 [ Access provided at 23 Sep 2021 11:07 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Art on the Back Burner: Gender as the Elephant in the Room of Southeast Asian Art Histories EILEEN LEGASPI-RAMIREZ Abstract Despite the operative skepticism about the way compensatory art history appears to have reduced the feminist project to merely expanding rather than challenging the canon, the assertion here is that still too scant attention has been paid to studying the critical role that primarily woman artist-organisers have played in shaping narratives of practice. In focusing on their visible tasks through variable degrees of sublimating art practice in deference to less visible tasks like archiving, art education, organising and publication, the research also privileges the aspects of circulation and reception as it revisits the shaping of artworlds in stories that have ironically kept such ‘maintenance’ tasks virtually off the record. It is telling that certain visual correlatives for the woman in Southeast Asia continue to circulate: from Garuda’s wing in Indonesia to an elephant’s hind legs in Thailand, we find amidst these variably poetic depictions an emplacing that literally decentres women from the pivotal junctures of action.

  • The Met's New Guards & the Future of Philippine
    AUTHENTICATION IN ART Art News Service The Met’s new guards & the future of Philippine contemporary art By John A. Magsaysay (The Philippine Star) | Updated February 2, 2013 The sun rises to a new dawn in Philippine contemporary art, in tune with the bells and whistles of our bustling economy. Our thriving artistic identity, it seems, is its new currency. With names like Ronald Ventura and Winner Jumalon fetching record highs in international art auctions, and seeing the steady incline of young Filipino artists being exported to global art residencies, the new face of Filipino art, it seems, is the must-have mug shot of creative acclaim around the world. But it used to be that the success of our own brand of contemporary art could only be traced by price tags, performances Custodians of Philippine contemporary art: Acclaimed in art auctions, and the privilege of plum gallery educator, art publisher, and the Metropolitan Museum of Manila president Tina Colayco and adviser to the representations well outside our shores.
