Bayanihan: Angono's Art Expression

FIFTY artists of Angono, Rizal - the Arts Capital of the Philippines – will come together in an art exhibition from August 12 to 18, 2012. The exhibition entitled “Bayanihan, A Convergence of Angono’s Art Expressions” will feature known and respected visual artists such as Nemiranda, the Blanco family, Pepito Villaluz, Orville Tiamson, Perdigon Vocalan, Carlos "Totong" Francisco II, Wire Tuazon among others. A wide selection of traditional realistic paintings, abstract and cutting edge contemporary style will be on display at the Nemiranda Art Café, the Blanco Family Museum and The Second Gallery in Angono, Rizal. Although the town has previously witnessed similar exhibitions, this will be the first time for all the active artists to collaborate as one group for the love of their hometown, Angono, which is celebrating its 74th Foundation Day this month. The works of international artists Nino Quartana and Olivia d’Aboville will also be on display. Ipanema is a co-presentor of this endeavor.

On August 20, 2012, a catalogue of participating artists and their works will also be launched. For details call: Sara Luisa Siri (Event Director) 0922-5546685 and Tourism Officer Patnubay Tiamson 0906-4612403 and 0929-2544159.
