The GSIS Museum Lower Gallery presents "13:52 GAWA", an exhibit that features a series of varied format-sized artworks in oils, acrylics, watercolors, and sculptures.
It revolves around the idea of featuring thirteen (13) self-taught artists in one major exhibit, with each artist exhibiting a series of four (4) works.
"Self-taught" is used to describe visual artists working professionally without formal art education.
The aesthetics of these self-taught artists can mirror developments in contemporary Philippine and modern art.
One of the greatest values of 13:52 GAWA is its ability to open doors to a greater understanding of art appreciation, presentation, and curation to students, artists and museum visitors.
This collective series also tries to encourage other Filipino artists to offer different perspectives of their creativity and concepts.
In this exhibit, the artists work with varied format-sized multi-media, with the minimum size of 30 inches by 24 inches vertical or horizontal orientation.
The artists in the exhibit include Andy Orencio (Antipolo), Victor Santos (Antipolo), William Antonio ( Pasig ), Ernie Gomez ( Baguio ), Howard Jao (Tanay), Monsar Lanario (Tanay), Ramon Piguing (Tanay), Manuel Sinquenco (Tanay), Beth Gadin-Macadangdang (Tanay), Albertine Santi (Las Piñas), Joel Cristobal (Baras), Leo Meneses (Pililia) and JCrisanto Martinez (Metro Manila).
The 13:52 GAWA exhibit shall run until July 31, 2008. The GSIS Museum Lower Gallery is located at the Financial Center , Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex, Pasay City, Philippines.
