Cinemalaya exhibit catalog launch
THE CULTURAL Center of the Philippines (CCP) launches a publication entitled Scenes Reclaimed: CCP 50 x Cinemalaya 15 on Feb. 25, 5 p.m., via FB Live at https://fb.me/e/3VwwKPwIJ. The catalog launch is in line with its 2019 exhibition “Scenes Reclaimed: CCP 50 x Cinemalaya 15,” a joint project of the CCP Film, Broadcast and New Media Division and the CCP Visual Arts and Museum Division. Through images, objects, and motion pictures, the exhibit looked at “independent” cinema in view of historical pursuits of freedom in the national narrative. This book, apart from serving as a catalog of the exhibit, is also educational material for Filipino students and makers of film, a compendium of keywords for a critical pedagogy of Philippine cinema. “Scenes Reclaimed” can be viewed at the third floor of the CCP Main Theater building in the 360 tour on the CCP website. Scenes Reclaimed: CCP 50 x Cinemalaya 15 will be made available after the launch through the CCP Shop. CCP offers a 24-hour flash sale at P200 as launch price, and also P200 as exclusive price for Film Society Members.
