Demystifying Mindanao Culture
Talk by Lory Tan
October 18, 2008 Saturday 3-5pm
On October 18, Saturday, from 3-5pm, World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Philippines Trustee and Vice-Chairman Lory Tan will be give a talk on Mindanao, its intricacies and controversies, through its culinary arts. In the late nineties, Bookmark published a book on Mindanao. To obtain the visuals and stories that eventually filled that book, the development team traveled the length and breadth of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago. At the time, Lory Tan was writing occasional food pieces for the Philippine Daily Inquirer. He then capitalized on the opportunity and maintained a diary of the meals they enjoyed along the way. This talk is culled from those field notes, and constitutes a faithful re-living of that experience.
Jose Ma. Lorenzo “Lory” Tan is the Vice-Chairman of World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Philippines and the President of the Philippine Tropical Forest Conservation Foundation, Inc. A staunch environmentalist, publisher, writer, and photographer, Tan has won numerous publishing awards. His book, “The Last Great Forest: Luzon’s Northern Sierra Madre Nature Park”, won the National Book Award for Environment in 2001. Another one of his books, “A Field Guide to Whales and Dolphins in the Philippines,” won the Gintong Aklat for Science in 1998. He was named Travel Writer of the Year in 1995 for his article “A Season of Whales,” published in Mabuhay Magazine.
The talk is a part of the current Silverlens Gallery show, Isa Lorenzo, 003: The Moro Negatives.
Visit Silverlens Gallery at 2/F YMC Bldg. 2, 2320 Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati City, 816-0044, 0905-2650873, manage@silverlensphoto.com. Gallery hours are Monday to Friday 10am–7 pm, Saturday 1–6pm.

Painting with Light is Australian artist/photographer, Henry Bateman’s second Philippine exhibition. Where his first exhibition “Through Australian Eyes” explored different places in the Philippines from an expatriate’s point of view, in this latest exhibition Bateman addresses a wider range of ideas whilst limiting his lens to Metro Manila’s Makati City.
Using computer manipulation, he abstracts his photographs to explore his response to issues that range from current events to observations of Manila’s art scene. Bateman’s works encompass his reaction to the war of terror in “The Fractured Sentinel” and climate change in “Broken Spaces I and II” to viewing art in a Shopping mall in “Mall Art II – Stand in Line” and in a gallery in “Gossip” from a photograph captured at the Ricco Renzo Galleries.
Bateman’s work is unashamedly abstract and conceptual presenting images designed to provoke a dialogue with his camera’s captures. As American artist DL Keur says in a review of his work on her web site www.zentao.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur. “Henry Bateman is a photographer who photo-manipulates his work into art that is at once unique and evocative.”
Painting with Light is on show at Ricco Renzo Galleries, 2nd Floor, LRI Design Plaza, 210 N. Garcia St. (formerly Reposo), Bel Air 2, Makati City from 15 August to 10 September. Open cocktails will be at 7pm on the 15th August.
Fashion and glamour isn’t limited to models decked out in haute couture. Which is why fashion photographer Jason Tablante let his inner geek take over his camera lens for Pop! Nostalgia, a photo exhibit that takes a quirky look at what we wouldn’t normally consider as “fashionable”: comics, cartoons, movies, and video games.
“The exhibit is a personal revisit of the characters and themes that helped mold my imagination throughout the years, and in a way, celebrate them,” said the 27-year old photographer.
The 12 images contain celebrities whom Tablante picked to show their versatility in portraying different personalities. Some of the stars who grace the exhibit are Rhian Ramos as a comic book superhero, Aljun Albrenica and Kris Bernal as action figures, Jackie Rice as a ragdoll, Mark Herras as a mobster, Isabel Oli as an alien, and Iza Calzado as a Stepford Wife.
See Tablante’s take on these pieces of pop culture featuring some of today’s hottest stars from GMA Artist Center, from June 3 to June 15, at the Crucible Gallery, Mega Mall.
