This year’s theme focuses on “Showcasing the Global Filipino Artist,” to encompass the creative power that the country has to offer.
It will also highlight the significance and responsibility of visual arts in today’s socio-political landscape.
ManilART believes that the nation’s diverse art practitioners, exhibitors, and supporters will contribute to what is already a colorful Filipino identity.
Susanito Sarnate from Negros Occidental and Anthony Palomo from Batangas will present visual commentaries on the modern diaspora, as well as other contemporary social issues of Filipinos may it be local or international, at the VIP Lounge.
One of the participating galleries in this year’s ManilART is Galerie Artes. Here are just some of the artworks to expect at the event:
ManilArt is a flagship project of the National Committee on Art Galleries (NCAG) of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA). The five-day event will once again fall in October, in celebration of the country’s Museums and Galleries Month.
