The Philippines: Prospects in Business and the Arts
THE PHILIPPINES: PROSPECTS IN BUSINESS AND ARTS Sponsored by the Philippine Cultural Society (Singapore) In cooperation with Philippine Airlines. 26 TH October 2002, Hilton Hotel I am really happy to be here this afternoon with all my kababayans. I know you will be given a lot of talk about investment opportunities but I like to talk about some smaller investments that you might be interested namely Filipino artists. I can guarantee you that these investments will give you less risk, more enjoyment and the investment amount is very small. I am talking about investing in paintings specifically paintings by Filipino artists. I would like to show you some of the slides of our artists and as much as I would like to show many artists, I am afraid with the short notice and the time constraints, I am limited to what I have that is available. INTRODUCTION For me art is very personal and being brought up in the Philippines, living in the United States and Southeast Asian countries I have witnessed and interacted with many of our artists who are either visiting or working abroad. My views on the subject are probably very different from the rest of the panelists as I categorized the artists in a way that maybe different from academics and art critics. As you may have noticed, we have a great diversity when it comes to art as we have many different groups with many different influences. I am proud to say that we are rich when it comes to art and 1 that we, probably, have as many artists as we have islands in the Philippines.

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.
