Lynyrd Paras 4th Solo Sshow @ ArtistSpace, Ayala Museum

Some Things Are Not Meant To Be Beautifu

Lynyrd Paras 4th solo show

ArtistSpace, Ayala Museum

June 5-20, 2010

Lynyrd Paras’ portraits in his 4th one-man show, Some Things are not Meant to be Beautiful, exude grimy street vibes with graffiti and color scratches drawn on predominantly grey faces. Upon closer inspection, these scribbles on the skin, which also double as the pieces’ titles, reveal snippets from a narrative of intense intimacy that has always been identified with this artist.

Paras encourages trespassing into his personal space, but not without a backlash. These portraits are his visual diaries, and the faces staring out the canvasses with prominent eyes accuse intruding onlookers. This is what Alice Guillermo deemed as “the tone of late adolescence” in his works. The artist gives us a peek of his struggle to express unadulterated emotions such as love and hate, while trying to intellectualize the more complicated notions of affection and detachment. Hence a pervading sense of wistfulness in the gazes, as if desperately looking for something to hold on to in the flux of their coming, finally, of age.

Some Things are not Meant to be Beautiful is presented by the Ayala Museum and Art Verite. Show opens on June 5, 6pm. runs until June 20, 2010 at the ArtistSpace, 2nd Floor, Glass Wing, Ayala Museum, Greenbelt Park, Makati Avenue Cor. Dela Rosa St., Makati City, Philippines. Open Mondays to Fridays, 9 am to 6 pm, Saturdays and Sundays, 10 am to 7 pm. Entrance is free.

The show is curated by Ruel Caasi.

More activities await visitors of Gabii sa Kabilin

"The Gabii sa Kabilin concept is patterned after the long night of the museum in Germany and other European countries to draw and encourage people to visit museums as a venue for cultural understanding" said Dr. Joy Gerra, Executive Director of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI)-Cultural Heritage Program.

"We would also like to offer our guests a chance to ride the calesa or tartanilla (parada), a mode of transportation at the turn of 19th century as they move around from museum to museum. We also encourage people to dress in period costumes for the event," she added.

Gabii sa Kabilin, the only museum and cultural event of its kind in the Philippines and Asia, is organized by RAFI in partnership with the Visayas Association of Museums and Galleries Inc. (VAMGI).

Winner Jumalon @ Pinto Art Gallery

Winner Jumalon

“A Part”, a solo show

Pinto Art Gallery, Antipolo

Opens 6 June 2010

This is a graveyard. But the tombstones are not made of stone. No epitaphs honor the dead. Nor are there bodies. Just an expanse of heads and things painted on back-to-back portraits and still lives entirely made of resin. Winner Jumalon takes his portraits out of the gallery to the outdoors—transferring the faces from canvas to sturdy resin, using hard-wearing automotive paint instead of oil or acrylic. Doing thus, the artist fortifies these portraits and still lives, usually fragile against the elements, to render high, exclusive art as public and finally, quite accessible.

A Part opens on the 6th of June, Sunday, 3pm at Pinto Art Gallery in Antipolo City. Pinto Art Gallery is a member of the Silangan Foundation for the Arts, Culture and Ecology. It is located at #1 Sierra Madre St. Grandheights, Antipolo, City. For inquiries you may email us atsilangangardens@yahoo.com or call us at (632) 6971015.

The show is curated by Ruel Caasi.

2010 Ateneo Art Awards Call For Nominations

NOMINATIONS NOW OPEN FOR THE 2010 ATENEO ART AWARDS: SHATTERING STATES

On its fiftieth anniversary, the Ateneo Art Gallery announces that "Shattering States" has been selected as the theme of this year's Ateneo Art Awards, in response to the museum’s
pioneering efforts in championing the cause of modernism in the country.

Traversing the range and scale of art practice, the 2010 edition of the Awards actively underscores the transgressive nature of artists, and resists the tendency to nurture ideas of stasis or permanence that usually accompany milestone celebrations. Ceaselessly challenging traditional media forms, this year presents an explosive array of artists whose works in one way or another hybridize manifestations that delineate and define the
cutting edge.

Beyond the parameters of the object and its creator, "Shattering States" is also an ongoing reflection about time and place: a mental mapping of links that connect local and global concerns. As Philippine society finds itself yet again at the crossroads, art ultimately harnesses and realizes the potential of the imagination to create a wishing space that will
effectuate lasting change.

The Ateneo Art Awards are given to Filipino visual artists below the age of 36 for
outstanding works in an exhibition between 2 May 2009 and 1 May 2010. Nominations are accepted from visual artists, curators, museum and gallery directors, members of the present and former juries, art educators and art writers. Nomination forms are available at the Ateneo Art Gallery, Ateneo de Manila University, Katipunan Avenue, Loyola Heights, Quezon City; at Casa Gorodo Museum, Cebu City; or from the website http://gallery.ateneo.edu

All nominations must be received at the Ateneo Art Gallery before 5 pm on 31 May 2010. For more information, please contact Ian Carlo Jaucian at +6324266488 or mobile +639178878956 or email ijaucian@ateneo.edu. Exhibition of the works of the artists short-listed for the Awards will be at the Grand Atrium of the Shangri-la Plaza Mall, Shaw Blvd, Mandaluyong City from 6 August - 16 August 2010.
