The UP Film Institute, in cooperation with Kiyosoku Bihaku, celebrates the International Women’s Month with an exhibit entitled DIBU(H)O. The exhibit opens on March 13, 2009, Friday, 6:00 PM at the Ishmael Bernal Gallery.
Without a critical look at women and their historical struggles, celebrating Women’s Month risks becoming an empty gesture—a false resistance accommodated by a patriarchal society. The artists behind Dibu(h)o assert an analytical stance and propose a re-examination of the woman in society by means of investigating a variety of different concerns. Using an array of methods and materials, the exhibition tackles issues including the woman as social agent, as ideological subject, the woman as commodity, the woman at home, and the woman as a lover of women.
The UP Film Institute is the first and only Philippine School accredited by CILECT: International Association of Film and Television Schools since 1984. UPFI combines instruction with creative work, research and publication. UPFI graduates achieve proficiency in technical, creative, substantive and ethical filmmaking as well as holistic consciousness.
