The fledgeling art group aims to restore native predilection for wit and irony in local contemporary art practice.
CEBU, Philippines - December 2, 2012 - The contemporary art group WAWART will hold its first exhibit on December 3, 2001 to January 9, 2012 at the Bluewater Gallery (Bluewater Maribago Beach Resort).
Entitled "Sawum" ("dive" in Cebuano), the art exhibit takes inspiration from the gallery's pristine beach setting and thus attempts to reflect the "question of the elemental".
The curated show features video art, sculptures, indoor and outdoor installations along with wall-bound works.
A live art performance highlights the opening program which will be attended by 2011 Miss Universe Finalist, Shamcey Supsup, as one of the guests of honor.
Non-resort guests are requested to call Erik Monsanto at (032) 492 0100 local 512 and arrange for an exhibit viewing appointment.
