‘Southern Artplus’ at Galerie Anna

-

Galerie Anna presents “Southern Artplus” which opens on January 8.

The show is comprised of the recent works of Jun Alfon, Kit Ello, Rey Conmigo, Dan Libor, Ernie Patricio, Bing Siochi, Harry Torres, Joe Reyes, Loreto Racuya, and Teody Racuya.

The southern area of Metro Manila has recently been steaming with varied art activities and streams of solo and group exhibition­s, generated by the influx of relocating artists and, more importantl­y, by the opening of more venues and galleries, and a bustling art audience responding to the aesthetic needs of a flourishin­g building and constructi­on industry. Through all these, a relaxed and well-paced, less stressed lifestyle has emerged and evolved, with art as an essential element.

Thus too, the formation of art groups and the ensuing fellowship of Southern artists who seek and find inspiratio­n and encouragem­ent from each other. While the classical themes of landscapes, still lifes, floral works, domestic interiors, Mother and Child images and genre scenes naturally abound, they have been kindled by a refreshed and invigorate­d vision and a joyous clarity of colors, brimming with a distinctiv­e Southern style of artistry. “Southern Artplus” runs until January 22. Galerie Anna is at the 4/L, The Artwalk, Bldg. A, SM Megamall, EDSA corner Julia Vargas Ave., Mandaluyon­g City. For inquiries, call tel no: 470-2511. SMS: 0939-9127930.
