What is It

What is a National Artist?

A National artist is a Filipino citizen who has been given the rank and title of National Artist in
recognition of his or her significant contribution to the development of Philippine arts and letters.

What is the Order of the National Artist of the Philippines?

Among the various institutional awards and recognition instruments, the National Artist Award
(NAA) bestows the highest form of recognition to Filipino artists for their significant contributions
in the arts and letters. It shares the same prestige as the GAMABA and the National Scientist Award.
The award is conferred every three years through a rigorous deliberation and selection pro-
cess jointly facilitated by two major cultural offices, the National Commission on Culture and the Arts
(NCCA) and the Cultural Center of the Philippines ( CCP).

23
 Legal Basis of the Award

NAA was established in 1972 under Presidential Decree No. 1001 issued by then President Ferdinand
Marcos. Much has changed since the institutionalization of the award. As of this writing, the roster has included 66
awardees from seven disciplinal areas in the history of the NAA. Other categories have been considered by virtue
of the president’s prerogative. As one of the Honors of the Philippines, it embodies the nation’s highest ideals in
humanism and aesthetic expression through the distinct achievements of individual citizens.
Proclamation No. 1144, s. 1973 named the CCP Board of Trustees as the National Artist Awards Com-
mittee (or Secretariat).

Presidential Decree No. 208, s. 1973 reiterated the mandate of the CCP to administer the National Artist
Awards as well as the privileges and honors to National Artists.

Executive Order No. 236 s. 2003, otherwise known as the Honors Code of the Philippines, conferred ad-
ditional prestige on the National Artist Award by raising it to the level of a Cultural Order, fourth in precedence
among the orders and decorations that comprise the Honors of the Philippines, and equal in rank to the Order of
National Scientists and the Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan. The National Artist Award was thereby renamed the
Order of National Artists (Orden ng mga Pambansang Alagad ng Sining). This reflected the consensus among gov-
ernment cultural agencies and the artistic community that the highest possible international prestige and recogni-
tion should be given our National Artists. Section 5 of EO 236 stated the President may confer the Order of Nation-
al Artists “upon the recommendation of the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the National Commission for Cul-
ture and the Arts (NCCA).”

Executive Order No. 435, s. 2005 amended Section 5 (IV) of EO 236, giving the President the power to
name National Artists without need of a recommendation, relegating the NCCA and the CCP to mere advisory bod-
ies that may or may not be heeded.
