When people are looking for ways to break borders and promote unity, they turn to art. Whether it is visual, song, or dance, art has the amazing ability to bind everyone together. It shows the forgotten connection that was lost as borders were created and maps were drawn.<\/p>\n

Ties of History: Art in Southeast Asia<\/strong> takes its name from a phrase from the original document that the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) founders signed in 1967. The exhibit features select works from 10 artists, one from every ASEAN nation and will be held at the Metropolitan Museum of Manila (MET Manila), Yuchengco Museum, and the University of the Philippines Vargas Museum, simultaneously.<\/p>\n
