Tutok KARGADO @ Ateneo Art Gallery

Tutok KARGADO ongoing in the Ateneo Art Gallery

The Ateneo Art Gallery is presently featuring Tutok KARGADO - a visual
dialogue between contemporary Filipino artists and Modern masters in
the Ateneo Art Gallery collection. Tutok KARGADO is initiated by
Tutok, an initiative of visual artists focused on art and advocacy.
Hosted by the Ateneo Art Gallery, curator Jose Tence Ruiz provides the
structure within which the Tutok artists respond to and interact with
Filipino masters such as Arturo Luz, Vicente Manansala, Roberto
Chabet, J. Elizalde Navarro, Antonio Austria, Brenda Fajardo and
Lazaro Soriano.

The exhibition is an assortment of media and an explosion of color.
The buzz on national identity has never been this visually
stimulating. Tutok KARGADO creates a space of irregular frequency -
somewhat mirroring the vibrant topsy-turviness of Philippine history.
What will be encountered here are installations of sari-sari stores,
iconoclastic altars, natural calamities, urban subcultures, tarot
cards in our mother tongue, propaganda posters, jeepneys, indigenous
people and the other elements that make up the national dissonance
through the years.

Tutok KARGADO presents a vision of Philippine society as experienced
and expressed by Edgar Talusan Fernandez, Manny Garibay, Alfredo
Esquillo, Noel Soler Quizon, Karen O. Flores, Jose Tence Ruiz, Boy
Dominguez, Mideo Cruz, Mark Salvatus, Buen Calubayan, Jay Pacena, Lav
Diaz, Jim Libiran, Don Salubayba and Kirby Roxas.

Tutok KARGADO is ongoing until 22 May 2008 at the Ateneo Art Gallery.
Gallery hours on weekdays are 8am to 12 noon and 1 to 5pm, and 8am to
12 noon on Saturdays. As part of the Tutok KARGADO exhibit,the gallery
