RECEPTION JUNE 12, 6-9 PM

KKK — as in Key, Keen, Karma. As in Kaleidoscope, Kudos, Kodak. Or
maybe Kaibigan, Kinship, or Kapatid? KKK as in the Kapatiran spirit of
1898. KKK as in Brothers Kidlat, Kawayan, Kabunyan de Guia. Three
brothers; six eyes; one family. With parents from two ends of the
world: the German stain-glass artist Katrin de Guia and Filipino
filmmaker Kidlat Tahimik, KKK forms the three branches of the same
trunk.

Silverlens gallery invites everyone to celebrate Independence Day 2007
by visiting the exhibit KKK: Photographs by Kidalat, Kawayan and
Kabunyan de Guia. The exhibit will open on June 12 at 6pm and features
the different photographic stylings of the three brothers. Most
parents don’t allow their children to touch expensive things such as
cameras but for the de Guia boys, their Tatay let them play with his
camera equipment. These became the toys and tools that let them
discover their own images, which eventually led them to find their
individual ways of seeing the world. The KKK exhibit, photographs
byKidlat,Kawayan and Kabunyan de Guia at the Silverlens Gallery,
will run until June 30.

As a part of the Gallery Talks for the KKK exhibit, Tommy Hafalla will be
giving a talk “Photo Documentary meets Tradition” on June 16, from
3-5pm while Kidlat Tahimik will be screening his film “Why is Yellow
the Middle of the Rainbow?” on June 23, from 3-6pm.

Silverlens Gallery is located at 2320 Pasong Tamo Extension,
Warehouse 2, Yupangco
Building.

Gallery hours of the Silverlens Gallery are 10 to 7pm,
Mondays to Fridays and 1 to 6pm
on Saturdays.
