As part of the celebration of the National Arts Month, the Government Service Insurance System, together with the Quezon Artists Guild (QAG), will open an exhibit dubbed “Quezon Art 7” at the GSIS Museo ng Sining on Feb. 23.
“The exhibition will attempt to present a view of ‘art from the regions’ with displays that explore the techniques, styles and methodologies of art,” Noel Bueza, president of the QAG, said.
The exhibit will feature the works of 25 QAG members—Noel P. Bueza, Frank Cana, Avie Lafuente, Frank Hari, Roma Valdez, Ayelah Deveza, Farah Ontiveros, Melo Valencia, Rez Cada, Apolinario Folloso, Pauline Racelis, Pablo Marasigan, Cheryl Canning, Jezz Go, Mark Lagdameo, Raffa Dala, Ann Reynaldes, August Tazon, Jerson Ajus, Louinel Babia, Camille Ruiz, Eric Masangkay, Mario Madridejos, Reynaldo Lopez and Gundelina Ruiz.
At present, there are 50 registered QAG members.
The guild has been busy mounting exhibitions not only in Quezon province but also in Laguna, Cavite and even Metro Manila to give local artists the chance to showcase their artworks.
Some of the featured artists in Quezon Art 7 have already mounted exhibits at the GSIS Museo ng Sining, located at the 2nd level of the GSIS Building in Financial Center, Pasay City.
Entrance to the museum is free. It is open from Tuesday to Saturday, from 9 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Interested parties may contact the museum through telephone number (02) 479-3588. Quezon Art 7 will run until March 23.
