TutoK’s first offering for 2009 opens at Tala Gallery on April 16, 2009, with a group exhibition on art and education featuring artists who are also teachers in formal and informal venues.
“TutoK-EDUK” presents works in various media by Brenda V. Fajardo, Roberto Feleo, Gerardo Leonardo, Buen Calubayan, Noel Soler Cuizon, Karen Ocampo Flores, Boyet de Mesa, Kirby Roxas, Don Salubayba, Mark Salvatus, and Wesley Valenzuela.
The exhibit paves the way for TutoK’s inquiry into the state of education. Beginning with this exhibit by artist-teachers— artists who hone artistic skills and minds through academic channels, as well as artists who are active in cultural work among sectors and communities. The premise of course is that education is a continuous and dynamic process; that beyond the job, artists are essentially sustained by it as a vehicle for mutual exchange and development. Tutok’s focus on EDUK will provide more insights and discussions in its upcoming projects on education issues.
To be scheduled on the last two weeks of the exhibit will be a series of talks and workshops projected as critical interventions for the benefit of artists and art practices. Tutok’s program also plans to interface with summer educational programs for artists that will be held at the Cultural Center of the Philippines , the Printmakers’ Association of the Philippines (PAP) Workshop at the Folk Arts Theater and the UP College of Fine Arts.
“Tutok-EDUK” is curated by Don Salubayba, and is presented by TutoK in cooperation with Tala Gallery. Essays for the exhibition and catalogue are by Eileen Legaspi-Ramirez.
The exhibit will run from April 16 to May 7, 2009. Opening cocktails is on April 16 6:00pm. Tala Gallery is located at 100 Scout De Guia near Tomas Morato Street , Quezon City. Call Tels.63.2.4411267 and 63.2.4010337 for more information.
