IP Philippines Opens Diwang: Celebrating Creativity Exhibition

Cristobal, Jr., Director General of the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IP Philippines) and; Mr. Eddie Romero, National Artist for Film during the diwang anniversary exhibit launch at the Alab Art Space.

IP Philippines opens diwang: Celebrating Creativity exhibition

The Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IP Philippines) opens today diwang: Celebrating Creativity, the 10th anniversary exhibition at Alab Art Space. Diwang is a play on two Filipino terms – diwa refers to the essence or meaning of an idea while diwang denotes celebration.

“Diwang, the 10th anniversary exhibition of IP Philippines, merges content and form,” Atty. Adrian S. Cristobal, Jr., Director General of IP Philippines, said. “Diwa represents the office’s fundamental commitment to support the creative industries as indicated in our vision and mission to foster creativity and competitiveness for national development. Diwang, on the other hand, celebrates this essence. It also celebrates the essence of the artworks and the overall genius of the Filipino artist,” he added.

Diwang is part of IP Philippines’ activities to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Intellectual Property Code or Republic Act Number 8293, the law that created IP Philippines.

Mideo M. Cruz, 2003 Thirteen Artists Awardee of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) and 2006 Ateneo Art Awardee, participated in and curated Diwang. Cruz’s works are entitled Asoge, Superpower. The exhibition will run until August 10, 2007.

The rest of the participating visual artists and their respective works include: Benjie Torrado Cabrera (Masquerade of Enlightenment); Noel Soler Cuizon (Act of

Contrition); Rene de Guzman (Prusisyon/Crucifixion); Antipas Delotavo (Dambana, Tansong Tala); Gene de Loyola (Anihan); Racquel de Loyola (Left Over Project Series); Boy Dominguez (Karagdagan, Pitong Ritwal); Brenda Fajardo (Apokalipsis: Puting Kabayo, Apokalipsis: Pulang Kabayo, Apokalipsis: Itim na Kabayo, Apokalipsis: Maputlang Kabayo); Karen Ocampo Flores (Kagitingan), Emmanuel Garibay (Goddess); Mark Justiniani (Epilogo); Iggy Rodriguez (Elegy for the Disenfranchised); Don Salubayba (How the Carabao Learned English); Wire Tuazon in collaboration with Tanke Reyes (After a Lost Original) and; Yko Umadhay (Fragile). Earthfishfish, Butong Pakwan, and Racquel De Loyola performed during the opening of the exhibit.

Professor Napoleon Abueva, National Artist for Visual Arts; Dean Virgilio S. Almario, National Artist for Literature and; Mr. Eddie Romero, National Artist for Film, were the guests of honor of the event.

Proceeds of the artworks for sale will be used for art-based service projects for children of Hands on Manila (HOM). HOM is a non-profit organization that provides volunteer opportunities for community service in Metro Manila. It recruits, coordinates, and educates volunteers for other non-profit organizations.

The opening of diwang: Celebrating Creativity was made possible through the help of Bounty Agro Ventures, Inc. (Bounty Fresh), Figaro Coffee Company, Market Reach Distributors (Novellino wines), San Miguel Corporation, Splash Corporation, Zenzest, and TP Health Foods Inc. (X24).

Mag:net Gallery

Dear Fellow Artists, Patrons and Friends,

It is with deep regret and sadness that we're announcing the closure
of Mag:net Gallery Paseo and Mag:net Gallery ABS. These two galleries
through these years have sustained existence with the generous support
from ORGMAC A, Inc. or Mag:net Plus making it possible for these
venues to operate as galleries for changing exhibitions devoted to
supporting young artists, new energies and bold innovations. Increase
in rental fees and other overhead expenses however and shift in our
landlord's corporate concepts have compelled us to stop operations
after our leases end by the end of this month.

We are especially sorry to the artists whose exhibitions will have to
be displaced, cancelled or postponed. Please bear with us until we can
find alternative locations otherwise for now, Mag:net Gallery
Katipunan or The Wall at Mag:net Café High Street (owned by ORGMAC B,
Inc or the Mag:net Café Group) are open to accommodate the displaced
shows.

It was in July 2002 when we first opened Mag:net Gallery in its Quezon
City location at the Loop, ELJ Communications Center, ABS-CBN
Compound. Mag:net Gallery Paseo in Makati followed the year after.
Ours were not perfect art spaces. Most of the time, we had to struggle
to maintain the integrity of these spaces. We also had our shares of
lapses and disappointments but despite these we could claim we had 5
good years and over a hundred significant shows to speak of- thank
you, thank you for the continued support and patronage.

Despite closure of our two venues, we would like to clarify that
Mag:net Gallery as an art institution and support system to artists
will continue to exist and operate. We are consolidating operations at
Mag:net Katipunan which facilities today include: a gallery space for
changing exhibitions, a bookstore and magazine shop that also carry
alternative music cds and experimental/ indie dvd films, a space for
performances, poetry readings, film screenings (Cinekatipunan) and art
talks, a gallery backroom that showcases the works of some 70 artists
we carry and a café that serves food and beverages at student-friendly
prices. Very soon we are putting up the Mag:net Virtual Gallery
website in addition to the café's www.mag;net. com.ph which is now
being developed by a group of graduating students from the Ateneo
computer department. We will also continue to manage our alternative
art space called The Wall at the newly opened Mag:net Café Bonifacio
High Street in the Global City in Taguig-Makati.

We invite you therefore to join us (no more requiem as planned
earlier) to celebrate Mag:net Gallery's 5th Year Anniversary on 7 July
2007, Saturday at 7PM at Mag:net Katipunan. We are coinciding this
event with the earlier-planned opening of the three- man show of
Filipino international artists Manuel Ocampo and Gaston Damag and
French artist, Damian Deroubaix.

See you in Mag:net Katipunan on 7-7-07 at 7 in the evening and THANK
YOU ALL..

Rock Drilon
Director, Mag:net Gallery / Chairman, Mag:net Café Group

Creativity in Context by Lisa Ito

Exhibition Notes:

Creativity in Context
by Lisa Ito

"Creativity, it has been said, consists largely of re-arranging what we know
in order to find out what we do not know." --George Kneller

To celebrate creativity—its potentials, procedures, and processes—is to
celebrate and acknowledge the potency of our histories, traditions, and
struggles. To celebrate creativity is also to embrace the force of change,
in whatever manifestations and dimensions it may take, and see how this can
spur us onwards as individuals and as a whole.

A celebration of creativity necessarily considers context. For rarely does
creativity thrive in a conceptual vacuum; nor does always it occur
sporadically within self, without heed or reference to one's surrounding
history, society, and systems. Whether in affirmation or interrogation of
one's past, present, and plans for the future, creativity spurs the need for
change (in its various manifestations) and freedom from immobility,
stagnation, strangulation.

The wordplay of the exhibition's title, DIWAng, itself denotes the
liberating potential of the power to create.The Tagalog noun from which the
exhibition takes root diwa, when roughly translated, generally means thought
or a state of mind. Diwa—when attached to the correct linguistic
modifier--can also morph into the word magdiwang or pagdiriwang (to
celebrate/celebrati on). Yet the title (as a word, 'diwang' is almost never
used by itself, but always in reference to another) also hints at the
incompleteness of the act—both of thought and of celebration- -unless further
defined in relation to its contexts.

DIWAng features the works of seventeen acclaimed Philippine visual artists,
spanning a broad range of generations, styles, artistic media and
standpoints. Yet more than merely testify to the diversity and range of
talent, the exhibition aims to gather a selection of works testifying to a
rich tradition of highly-contextualiz ed and situated creativity on the part
of the Filipino artist.

Seen in this perspective, several of the works in DIWAng attest to the
potentials and needs for scientifically- driven creativity in the field of
agricultural productivity, such as the painting entitled Anihan (Harvest),
by Gene de Loyola, where fields go from green to gold in their bounty. Boy
Dominguez's works, entitled Karagdagan and Pitong Ritwal, may be seen in the
light of how inspiration and sources may be derived from the motifs,
traditions and knowledges of the country's national minorities, many of
whose ways of life are threatened by foreign and local incursions and
assaults.

In the exhibition, works such as that of Emmanuel Garibay take the viewer to
previously unexplored yet familiar worlds. For instance, the work Goddess by
Garibay, repositions a larger-than- life image of the female deity away from
her earthy paradise and sets her in what seems to be an industrial yet
ethereal setting, filled with geometric shapes and shadows. Masquerade of
Enlightenment, a hand-colored lithograph print by Benjie Torrado Cabrera,
lulls the viewer into an exquisite realm which is later on shattered by the
significations of the work's title.

Other works literally remind us of how present-day imagination can be
situated in historical realities and traditional iconography. For instance,
Brenda Fajardo fuses both religious references and historical symbols in the
Apocalypsis series. The series appropriates the image of the Four Horsemen
in the Biblical Book of Revelations, said to be allegories for Pestilence,
War, Famine, and Death, and recasts the four dreaded figures not as
harbingers of suffering and evil, but of hope and righteousness. For the
latter, Fajardo takes inspiration in both the historical archetypes of
Philippine revolutionaries and struggling women: the anti-colonial
Katipunero, the indigenous bagani warrior, the Filipina fighter. Noel Soler
Cuizon takes on deeply-personal issues of identity and situates these in
history and ethnicity in the work entitled Act of Contrition.

Other works in the exhibition focus on the creation of metaphors for nation.
For instance, the works Epilogo by Mark Justiniani and Sa Kagitingan, by
Karen Ocampo Flores present commentaries on the roles of historical figures
and hero/ines on contemporary conceptions of nationhood. Flores presents the
image of a mother giving birth, framed by the blood of fallen heroes and
stars who light the way. After a Lost Original, a collaborative painting by
Wire Tuazon and Tanke Reyes, appropriates the historical images of the
United States of Americas' Declaration of Independence from Britain in 1776,
and juxtaposes these with images associated or hinting at the subsequent
conquest of the Philippine islands: monkeys, a bulol figure, effigies from
the manunggul jar, a dog and apple. The work strongly indicts the logic of
colonialism, pointing at how one nation's liberation ironically ended up in
another's slavery.

DIWAng also exhibits a number of works that not only reflect the country's
histories of colonization, but also chart how the cultural systems and ways
of thinking brought about by these experiences have persisted up to now,
decades after the period of direct foreign rule. How The Carabao Learned
English by Don Salubayba is a witty yet nonetheless compelling critique of
the colonial imprint left on the collective mentality of a nation. The
carabao (water buffalo), a quintessential symbol for the ordinary Filipino,
and how it has its mind attached to that of its master. Mideo Cruz
constructs Superpower, a figure fashioned out of odds and ends that is also
clearly a reference to robots depicted in cartoons as “saviors of the
universe”. Cruz delivers a jab not only at the economic influx of imported
items (such as the cheap plastic toys used as components of the piece), but
also the importation of mentalities and frameworks that the foreign machine
facilitates.

Some of the other artists featured in the exhibition have contributed works
that depict contemporary social realities in the Philippines, attempting to
infuse new ways of seeing and documenting realities and everyday problems.
Social Realist stalwart Antipas Delotavo, for instance, subtly captures the
sense of isolation, disenfranchisement and alienation felt by many in a
country with a population of over 75 million people in his works Dambana and
Tansong Tala. Fragile, a diptych by Yko Umadhay, is a fitting tribute to the
present-day phenomenon of massive labor migration, the Overseas Foreign
Worker (OFW) boom that speaks of a fragile economy underneath the heavy
influx of remittances.

Creativity enables one to confront anew the realities that one often
ignores—or wishes to ignore. The pervasive issue of record-breaking poverty
levels and the rising economic disparities between the elite and the
downtrodden is eloquently alluded to in the work Elegy for the
Disenfranchised, by Iggy Rodriguez. The steel structures signifying supposed
development and progress are portrayed by Rodriguez as a skeletal frame, a
signifier of death to the downtrodden and dispossesed. Meanwhile, the issue
of extrajudicial killings of civilians and activists is alluded to and
articulated in works such as Prusisyon/Crucifixi on by Rene de Guzman and the
Left Over Project Series by Racquel de Loyola. De Guzman's dismembered clay
heads and De Loyola's soft sculptures hanging from the ceiling take on a
chilling signification when arranged in this particular manner, resonating
in their images the countless victims of extrajudicial killings, abductions,
and human rights violations of late.

As a whole, the works in DIWAng are generally rooted in realities,
histories, and social truths—far by among the best sources of material for
the creative mind.

2nd Dumaguete Open Biennial Terra Cotta Art Festival Exhibit & Competition

The 2nd Dumaguete Open Biennial Terra Cotta
Art Festival Exhibit and Competition

Negros Island possesses large clay deposits traditionally used for the manufacture and sale of utilitarian terra cotta pots and implements, and more recently as a medium for local visual artists.

It is in this context that the First Open Dumaguete Biennial Terra Cotta Art Festival Exhibit and Competition in 2005 was organized and it is in this same vein that the 2nd Open Dumaguete Biennial Terracotta Art Festival Exhibit and Competition 2007 will take off; to consider both the livelihood potential of such a resource, and the importance of this traditional medium as used by artists who seek to find contemporaneity through the natural potential of this medium.

PROGRAM

June 25 (Monday)
Cuban Film Program
Bernie Dwyer and Roberto Ruiz Rebo: MISSION AGAINST
TERROR
To be presented by the Philippine-Cuban Friendship
Association (Amistad-Philippine s)

Mission Against Terror
48 mins | Documentary

Five Cuban men are in prison for being anti-terrorists
in the country that declared war against terror.

Cuba has every right to protect its country and people
from ultra-right groups in Miami that have killed
scores in their island right under the US government’s
nose. So were known terrorists at large in Miami
monitored by Cuban patriots, who also passed
information to US authorities. Could there have been a
mix up? Instead of the terrorists, the anti-terrorists
were abducted and locked up.

The Cuban Five (Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino,
Fernando González, René González and Antonio Guerrero)
were illegally held in US jails since 1998 and denied
family visits and bail after almost two years of being
in solitary confinement. Lawyer Leonard Weinglass
calls this case a political one, and a “violation”
from the start.

“Mission Against Terror” maps Cuba ’s 48-year struggle
against terrorism and the clamor for the freedom of
Cuban 5. Its use of historic footage and interviews
with experts and families of the accused make moving
portraits of the Cuban patriots and elusive justice in
the US .

Bernie Dwyer and Roberto Ruiz collaborated on this
critically acclaimed Irish-Cuban documentary that
debuted at Havana ’s 26th Festival of New Latin
American Cinema in December 2004.

Following the film, former political prisoner and
member of the FREE THE CUBAN FIVE Committee of Amistad
(Philippines- Cuba Friendship Association) Donato
Continente will present on the issue and inform on how
individuals can become involved. Cuban Ambassador
H.E.Jorge Rey Jimenez is also invited to give his
remarks.

June 26 (Tuesday)
Sinekalikasan Program

This third screening of environmental films will

Tubig: Buhay o Tubo? (Water: Life or Profit?)
(2006|Digital video|14 mins)
The right to water is the right to life. Water should
be used for meeting people's needs—for their
livelihood and for their daily use. But government
denies farmers and fisherfolk of water for livelihood
in favor of the interests of big private and foreign
investors' use of the nation's water resources.

for normal screening pleasures.)

astrangiam

CINEMALAYA FILM CONGRESS 2007
24-25 July 2007 * CCP Tanghalang Aurelio Tolentino

Theme : HARNESSING TECHNOLOGY FOR ARTISTIC EXPRESSION

Rationale : Since 2001, the relatively inexpensive
technology of digital video filmmaking has inspired and enabled a
new generation of film artists to create films imbued with a robust
spirit of independence and originality. Fortunately, the rise of a
new group of enlightened film producers as well as the establishment
of competitions and festivals for the independent film, such as
those of Cinemalaya, Cinema One and Cine Manila, have served to
further bolster and promote the achievements of an exciting breed of
young filmmakers.

But much work remains to be done. For one,
the masterful handling of the new DV technology is a goal that many
filmmakers continue to work for. For another, the rapid development
of technology related to filmmaking demands vigilance and unflagging
attention from filmmakers, who need to be continuously updated about
the latest technology and to learn how to use such technology.

In response to these needs, the Cinemalaya
Congress 2007 intends to focus on the intimate and inextricable
relations between technology and art in filmmaking. Five panels
composed of film artists, technicians and businessmen will
illustrate, articulate and elaborate on these relations and show how
technology can indeed be harnessed for artistic expression in the
cinema.

Objectives: The Cinemalaya Congress 2007 has set the following
objectives for its two-day conference:

1. To evaluate the achievements of selected Cinemalaya 2005 and
2006 films, especially from the point of view of how they have
succeeded in using DV technology for artistic expression;

2. To inform filmmakers about the most recent and most
significant developments in film technology, which can widen or
strengthen or refine their ability to express themselves as film
artists; and

3. To formulate alternative distribution systems for a long-
term marketing and distribution of independent films both here and
abroad.

Eiga Sai 2007

CONTEMPORARY FILMS
THE JAPAN FOUNDATION, MANILA’S
MONTH-LONG EIGA SAI

Eiga Sai 2007
(SCREENING SCHEDULE)

The Japan Foundation, Manila, in cooperation with the Shangri-La Plaza Mall, the Cultural Center of the Philippines, and the UP Film Institute, proudly presents slices of Japanese life as seen through the eyes of contemporary Japanese directors of “Eiga Sai 2007”: a showcase of modern film genre at the Shang Cineplex, UP Film Institute and CCP Dream Theater.

Among the films to be featured in Eiga Sai 2007 are Kamikaze Girls (Shimotsuma Monogatari, 2004, directed by Tetsuya Nakashima), Harmful Insect (Gaichu, 2002, directed by Akihiko Shiota), Hotel Hibiscus (Hotel Hibiscus, 2002, directed by Yuji Nakae), No One’s Ark (Baka no Hakobune, 2002, directed by Nobuhiro Yamashita), Inochi (Inochi, 2002, directed by Tetsuo Shinohara), Out of this World (Kono Yo no Sotoe-Club Shinchu Gun, 2003, directed by Junji Sakamoto), The Stars Converge (Chirusoku no Natsu, 2003, directed by Kiyoshi Sasabe), Blue (Blue, 2001, directed by Hiroshi Ando), Blue Spring (Aoi Haru, 2001, directed by Toshiaki Toyoda) and Shangri-la (Togenkyo No Hitobito, 2002, directed by Takashi Miike).

The Eiga Sai (literally, ‘film festival’ in Japanese) opens at the Shangri-la Plaza Mall on June 20 with light comedy, “Kamikaze Girls” (2004, 103 minutes, Color), written by Novala Takemoto and directed by Nakashima Tetsuya. It tells the story of two very different teenagers who become best friends, even though neither will admit it. J-Pop star Kyoko Fukada stars as Momoko, a 17-year-old girl so obsessed with everything rococo that she wears old-fashioned frilly white clothing and carries a parasol. After Momoko’s mother leaves her small time crook husband, her young daughter grows up on the farm, 60 miles from Tokyo, with her ex Yakuza father who sells fake Versace merchandize and grandmother, a woman with an extraordinary ability to catch flies in mid air. Desperate for money, Momoko starts selling the remainder of her father's counterfeit clothing, but her only customer is a tough-talking young biker chick, Ichigo (Anna Tsuchiya), who belongs to an all-girl gang. Their lives exemplify some of the fascinating intricacies of Japanese youth culture in a feel good film with art direction creatively designed to blow your socks off. The movie garnered critical acclaim and won numerous awards in Japan and abroad.

All films in Eiga Sai 2007 will be shown with English subtitles. Screening venues of Eiga Sai 2007 are at the Cinema 3, Shangri-La Plaza Mall (June 20-26), UP Film Institute (July 2-5), and CCP Dream Theater (July 4-8). Admission is free.

For detailed screening schedules and inquiries on Eiga Sai 2007, please check the Japan Foundation, Manila website: www.jfmo.org.ph or call the JFM telephone numbers 811-6155 to 58.

Mac Valdezco for "Small Complete Units," Avellana Art
Gallery, 14 April - 19 May 2007.

Jevijoe Vitug for "Capitali-Sing, " Finale Art Gallery,
8 - 27 March 2007.

MM Yu for "Thoughts Collected, Recollected, " Finale
Art Gallery, 19 April - 8 May 2007.

This marks the first time that an artist appears on
the short-list twice, with Garcia been recognized for
two different exhibitions in the same year. De la
Cruz, Navarroza, Ticar and Vitug were short-listed for
the Awards last year, while Valdezco was previously
short-listed in 2005.

The short-list was selected by the 2007 Ateneo Art
Awards Jury after going through over one hundred
nominations. Each artist, a Filipino citizen, 35 years
or under by 31 May 2007, was nominated for a solo or
group exhibition in any public venue held between 2
May 2006 and 1 May 2007.

From the short-list, the jury deliberated on 20 June
2007 to determine the three recipients of the Awards.
The winners will then be announced on 8 August 2007 at
a formal ceremony at the Rockwell Tent following "2007
Ateneo Art Awards: Global/Vernacular, " an exhibition
of the works of the short-listed artists at Power
Plant Mall from 2 - 7 August 2007.

Global/Vernacular is recognition and credence,
acknowledging Philippine art has its own nuances yet
believing it moves beyond local context to reverberate
cross-culturally. It also calls attention to the
expansion of the Ateneo Art Gallery Studio Residency
Grant, the only program of its kind organized by a
Philippine cultural institution. 2007 marks the third
year of the Ateneo Art Gallery Studio Residency Grant
in Australia, to be held for the first time in La
Trobe University in Bendigo, as well as the
introduction of the Ateneo Art Gallery Studio
Residency Grant in Singapore with Artesan Gallery.
Each residency provides one of the three Ateneo Art
Awardees with roundtrip airfare, accommodation and a
work studio for three weeks, an allowance, as well as
an invitation to exhibit at their respective host
venues.

WCOPA National Director for the Philippines introduces 2007 Team Philippines

For any queries, you may contact Oliver Oliveros, Senior Public Relations Officer/Consultant, at tel. no. 818-1111 loc. 225, mobile no. 0928-7725254, email add. stages_pr@i-manila.com.ph, or web site http://oliverpublicist.blogspot.com

WCOPA National Director for the Philippines introduces 2007 Team Philippines

Carlo Orosa, newly-licensed World Championships of Performing Arts (WCOPA) National Director for the Philippines, presented to sponsors and the media this year’s Team Philippines that will compete at the 11th Annual WCOPA in Hollywood, California during a fundraising concert held recently at Teatrino, Promenade, Greenhills.

Ida Henares, former WCOPA National Director for the Philippines and Jed Madela, 2005 WCOPA Grand Champion Performer of the World, were at the affair to show support to 2007 Team Philippines.

Team Philippines includes Pop Virtuoso Reuben Laurente, Hamilton Canada Talent Hunt Grand Prize Winner and “Philippine Idol” finalist Reymond Sajor, “Born Diva” Grand Prize Winner Raki Vega, 2006 Manhunt International semi-finalist Iago Raterta, “Little Big Superstar” finalist Aria Clemente and Zamboanga-based Revelation Band.

WCOPA is often cited as the one and only “official Talent Olympics” for performers and entertainers. After 11 years of incredible growth, it is the only premier international talent and modeling competition of its kind annually held in Hollywood, the entertainment capital of the world! Similar to the Olympics, only invited and qualified competitors (called Worldstars) representing countries compete each year in a fierce competition for the “Grand Champion Performer of the World” titles.

There are three rounds of competitions. The first will determine the medalists: Gold, silver, and bronze. The medalists move on to the second round of competitions to determine overall World Champions. Outstanding and entertaining performers chosen during the second round will then perform before a selected panel of judges to determine the finalists who will compete for the “Grand Champion of the World” category titles and ultimately the “Grand Champion Performer of the World” titles.

Competitors are encouraged to look for sponsors from their respective countries that will pay up for their registration fee, airfare, food and accommodation at WCOPA from July 28 to Aug 5. Expected expenditure would sum up to around $3,000 per delegate. Over 50 countries are expected to send in their representatives to WCOPA.

“Team Philippines this year is carefully selected and made up of incredible talents from major TV networks and nationwide singing competitions. We are also sending our very first male model delegate to WCOPA,” says Orosa.

Griff O’ Neal, former “Miss Universe” pageant executive and WCOPA president, shares the same excitement over Team Philippines. “All of us are anxious to welcome Team Philippines to the 11th annual WCOPA! "Go for the Gold!” says O’ Neal.

For inquiries and donations to 2007 WCOPA Team Philippines, you may contact Oliver Oliveros of STAGES at mobile no. 0928-7725254 or e-mail add. stages_pr@i-manila.com.ph.

2007 WCOPA Team Philippines has been getting support from the following sponsors: PLDT MyDSL, Outland, STAGES, Christian Bautista, Senator Ramon Bong Revilla, Jr., Mr. Kenway, Trumpets Musicademy, Rodriguez de Alba Bespoke and Fotofabrik – Photography by Jay Javier.
