The Philippines has chosen a representative for the 60th Venice Art Biennale! After careful and thoughtful deliberation, the jurors have officially selected Kabilang-tabing ng panahong ito (Behind the curtain of this age). The proposal, curated by Carlos Quijon Jr. and featuring the work of contemporary artist Mark Salvatus, “revolves around the ethno-ecologies of Mt. Banahaw and Lucban, the artist’s hometown.” It also draws inspiration from how the mountain “shaped the music and faith of the people.”
The exhibition borrowed its title from the words of Apolinario de la Cruz or Hermano Pule, the lonestar of the people of Lucban who resisted the discrimination of the Spanish Catholic church. Concepts that it aims to explore include “currents of mysticism and modernity, the deep past and the looming future, as well as the coincidence of the cosmopolitan and the vernacular.”
