Jorge B. Vargas Museum and Filipiniana Research Center
The Collection of Jane Ryan and William Saunders | Pio Abad
28 August to 30 September 2014 | Exhibition opening: Thursday, 28 August at 6 P.M., GF Lobby and West Wing Galleries
Pio Abad choreographs these things and the tales animating them to initiate a critical conversation on the discourses of singularity, surplus, and semblance. He looks at them as traces of something sordid, a body of evidence that exhibits morbid symptoms of a possible psychopathology of power.
LOOB by RENATO HABULAN and ALFREDO ESQUILLO JR. is at the West Wing and Lobby galleries on July 22 – August 22, 2014. Artists talked about their works on the opening day at 4:30pm. Exhibition is in cooperation with Tin-aw Art Management, Inc.
