I have always appreciated art. Though I haven’t really honed my creative side lately, I have always been fascinated with people being able to express their passion.

It is very noticeable that our generation today has little interest on visiting museums and exhibits. The Digital sphere is more popular among the younger generation. There is nothing wrong with being updated…but we should have a balance on not forgetting the greatness of our rich history. “A Century of Philippine Art” is an exhibit that aims to interest mall goers to take part with History thru works of Art.
100 Art pieces curated over a century period by one of the oldest Art Gallery in Manila. Galeria de las Islas or Gallery of the Islands is the art gallery located at the Silahis Center in Intramuros has been exhibiting paintings, sculptures and other works of art since 1967. It has become noted for its collection of Philippine genre art.
