Logarta said that they aware when Flores submitted her resignation.

An earlier report by ABS-CBN News Channel said Flores announced her resignation during a forum at the University of the Philippines.

Virgie Ramoso, in charge of administration works in the division, told philstar.com that they were not aware of Flores's reported resignation.

"Nagpunta sa forum sa UP, wala namang sinabi," Ramoso said.

Flores's resignation came a day after the CCP decided to shut down its Main Gallery where the controversial "Kulo" Exhibit was on display.

"Due to numerous emails, text messages and other letters sent to various officers of the CCP, and to the artists themselves, with an increasing number of threats to persons and property, the members of the Board of the Cultural Center of the Philippines have decided to close down the Main Gallery where the Kulo Exhibit is on display. This decision was made amidst controversy and deliberation by the Board as to what steps are necessary to avoid future similar incidents," the CCP said in a statement yesterday.
