"Asphalt", a rambling installation from sculptor Gabriel Barredo, is an intriguing, fantastical folly imbued with the amazing creative and mechanical genius of the artist. This promises to be a marvel to anyone, whether they are familiar with or new to Barredo's work. A surprise offering from auction superstar Ronald Ventura is in the works too.
To those who like some of the pieces being showcased, you buy them actually and Citibank will be the sole credit card provider for the art fair
Art Fair Philippines 2013 is said to deliver a unique, multi-layered experience to anyone interested in Philippine contemporary art.
