DESCRIPTION:
You Are Here is a survey of various figurative and abstract works from the
Visual Arts Collection of the Cultural Center of the Philippines. It is a
deconstruction of presence and absence, missing and found, ebb and owa
ux of coming and of going. This curated endeavor is meant to work as a
dialogue between the works and the viewer, to engage visitors to make
inferences and connections on how each work is situated as a part of a
whole. The exhibit aims to help students and new museum visitors learn how
to look at and appreciate modernist, especially abstract works, by prompting
questions to reect upon while looking at the pieces as contextualized in a
curated show. The exhibition includes works by Lee Aguinaldo, Raymundo
Albano, Augusto Albor, Constancio Bernardo, Ibarra dela Rosa, Lao Lianben,
Arturo Luz, Lani Maestro, and Ben Maramag.
