Art is an expression shown by humanâs creative imagination and skill. Usually it expresses as visual or concrete form like paintings, sculptures, pictures, literature, music etc. and there are many other elements of art.
I donât consider myself as an âart personâ but i can appreciate them, I can tell when the music is good or the painting is beautiful but sometimes it depends on the person because we all have different perception. When you think of an âartâ usually âmuseumâ pops right after.

A contemporary artist, Ling Quisumbing Ramilo assembled an archive of her own practice and collections to pose an analogy of methods
Experimentations with material, selections of unresolved ideas, works in progress and residues of exhibitions carefully mapped out to create a discursive juxtaposition.
Toym Imao features his own maquettes of unrealized commisioned markers and monuments. An architecture graduate, he fuses his affinity for history and works these narratives into a unique visual perspective that are attempts in accuracy and creativity. The supposed 11-meter structure is presented as a scale model of the Philippine Commonwelt Monument. Featuring key figures and turning points that defined the era of 1935 to 1946, it includes Manuel L. Quezon, Sergio OsmeĂąa, Manuel Roxas, Jose P. Laurel, and Jose Abad Santos, among others. The model can be observed in the round and can be considered a summation of the Commonwelt, a transitional government for the Philippines before the attainment of full independence.
       Straight through the hallway of the museum, the viewer will be greeted by Riel Hillarioâs sculptural installation entitled It was a paradisical state: the body was allowed to be a body. The work attests to the craftmanship he got from his training in the art of santo-making and woodcarving, employed in creating a different brand of mysticism.
     Open Ends is presented with support from Pacific Paint (Boysen) Philippines, Inc. The Public Programs for the exhibition is sponsored by Gourmet Farms, Inc. The exhibition will run from August 22 to December 23, 2015.
Lopez Museum and Library is located at the Ground Floor at Benpres Building, Exchange Road cor. Meralco Avenue, Ortigas Center, Pasig City.
