Trends and Innovation in Philippine Contemporary Art

Presented by Jeannie Javelosa May 26, Saturday 3:00 - 5:00 p.m.

Jeannie Javelosa, curator of the Yuchengco Museum, will give an overview of trends in Philippine contemporary art--from the Modernist tradition of the 1950s to the present day--focusing on the innovations of Filipino artists in technique, style, and material as they broke away from the previous generation. Jeannie Javelosa is a writer and visual art: she is an awarded printmaker and editor of the landmark book Art Philippines. She was an active art critic in the late 1980s and 1990s, with a weekly column in a daily newspaper and published articles in art journals and magazines in Southeast Asia and Australia.

Museum talk comes with admission (P100 for adults, P50 for students, P25 for children and seniors) To register, email info@yuchengcomuseum.org or call (632) 889-1234.
