February 1, 2023 | 12:07 amAFTER one year online and another in a hybrid set up, Art Fair Philippines celebrates its 10Last year, the fair’s nine-day physical exhibition at the Ayala Triangle Gardens was visited by 18,000 people; while the online activities recorded 55,000 online visitors for the entire duration of the fair.
“I’ve said it so many times over the years, we set out to expand the audience for the visual arts, and I think we can rightly say we did it! We had 6,000 visitors in that first fair, in our last live edition [in 2020], we had close to 30,000 [visitors],” Ms. Lopa told“And I believe we spurred the development of a local art scene-slash-art ecosystem. On the commercial side, you now see the proliferation of various art events that have been patterned after Art Fair Philippines,” she added.
“Sometimes I can’t believe that we are able to convert a car park into a temporary, alternative art exhibition space that is able to welcome and accommodate thousands of visitors,” Ms. Araneta said. “It has not been worry-free each year, but we have always managed to open as scheduled. This not only makes me proud, [but it also] makes me especially grateful.”This year’s edition will feature a new biophilic design by Andy Locsin and his team at Leandro V. Locsin and Associates.
The introduction of ArtFairPH/Digital, Ms. Lopa said, “comes after realizing that we have a sizable, vibrant crypto art scene here in the Philippines. And we do have digital artists earning recognition internationally.”One highlight of the fair is ARTFAIRPH/PROJECTS which will showcase work commissioned especially for the fair from artists who have made an impact both critically and commercially. This year, Art Fair Philippines works once again with art consultant Norman Crisologo.
The art fair also pays tribute to the late gallerists Norma Liongoren and Albert Avellana , and will showcase the work of their galleries.the fair will exhibit works from this year’s batch of artists who have completed artist residencies in various parts of the country: IC Jaucian at the Manila Observatory, Nicolei Gupit at the Linangan Art Residency, Aaron Kaiser Garcia at Emerging Islands, ESL Chen and Jonathan Baldonado at the Orange Project, and James Clar at Butanding Barrio.
The foreign galleries include Art Agenda , Artemis Art , Gallery Kogure , Kobayashi Gallery , Cayón , GALLERY SCENA , La Lanta Fine Art , Nunu Fine Art , Gajah Gallery , Vin Gallery , Yavuz Gallery , and YOD Gallery .
