Celebrating Filipino Artistry and Variety: ManilART 2013- Asia's Hottest Contemporary Art Fair

October 04, 2013
, , ,

We Filipinos are known for our artistry, ingenuity, and love for the arts.  I am proud to say that many of our countymen are known all over the world because of these innate characteristics. It is very timely to celebrate our love for the arts and appreciate what our homegrown talents got in the hottest contemporary art fair in the country-   ManilART 2013: Celebrating Variety

 

ManilART 2013 on its fifth year is at once the venue to support new talent, celebrate icons, and advance art appreciation into the cultural mainstream. 

ManilART 2013 is organized by the Bonafide Art Galleries Organization (BAGO) and supported by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA). It will showcase Philippine contemporary art through exhibitions of the country's finest galleries, as well as forums, workshops, and various activities for aficionados, artists, collectors, and investors.

Last year, more than 40 art galleries, 500 artists, 11,000 guests, and 1,400 artworks on display. It fulfills ManilART's thrust to be the premier international art fair in the country. But it propels the goal even further. It is hosting the event on October 9 to 13,2013 at a brand-new stage, the recently opened SMX Aura Convention Center in Taguig City, which promises to be a more urbane location worthy of carrying the best in Filipino art.
