ESTILO |
| |
 |
|
“ESTILO” is a group show by Filipino artists and creative professionals based in Hong Kong. Spanish term for style, "ESTILO" will reveal the vibrant and growing community of Hong Kong-based Filipino artists and creative professionals.
For "ESTILO", around 25 recent works in painting and photography will be featured as part of the Second Philippine Arts Festival 2007 in Hong Kong. It is a follow-up show to last year's big event at the Central Library which served as the core of the First Philippine Arts Festival in Hong Kong. "Unang Sulyap: First Glimpse" also showcased the talent of Hong Kong-based Filipino artists as well as Philippine art works held by collectors based in the SAR.
This year's exhibition is a proof of the ever-growing and inspired community of contemporary Filipino artists and creative professionals who see Hong Kong as a suitable arena to release their creative passion and compulsively produce art "made in Hong Kong" away from their home country. Given the fact that they have fulltime jobs and families to care for, still their productivity in art uncovers the variety in subjects and themes on display and is a cross-section of how wide-ranging their concerns on various issues are and how their individual and collective efforts all these years have contributed to the vibrancy of this multi-ethnic place. This reality had somehow spawned a new kind of art of a people whose cultural baggage blended with the influence of their adopted city.
