It’s that time of the year again when contemporary art makes its way to the mall!
From Friday, August 7 to Monday August 17, 2009, the works of artists short-listed for the Ateneo Art Awards will be exhibited at the Grand Atrium of the Shangri-la Plaza, Shaw Boulevard corner Edsa. Given to artists below the age for 36 who have, through a solo or group exhibition in the past year made a significant contribution to the development and definition of contemporary Philippine art, the Ateneo Art Awards has become a barometer of the Philippine art scene. The awards night is tomorrow, Thursday, August 13, 2009 at 6pm. The exhibit this year features the works of Martha Atienza, Allan Balisi, Ringo Bunoan, Joey Cobcobo, Kiri Dalena, Kidlat de Guia, Christina Dy, Patricia Eustaquio, Jan Leeroy New, Goldie Poblador, Pam Yan Santos and Michelline Syjuco. The exhibit will be at the Ateneo Art Gallery from
August 24 to September 19, 2009.
The Ateneo Art Awards are presented by the Ateneo Art Gallery, UnionBank, Metro Society, Ystyle of the Philippine Star, the New York Art Project Grant made possible by Marcel Crespo, and sponsored by Smart and Lifestyle Network, MTV.
