The Museum and Gallery

The Museum and Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and interpreting developments in the late 19th century to post-World War II art through 1970's (Modern Art) and 1970's to the present (Contemporary Art) in all media and creating a welcoming environment for its public appreciation. The Museum will promote understanding and interest in art and artists through art shows and exhibitions, curatorial research and publications, and a variety of educational programs, including lectures, guided tours, and workshops.

The Museum is an organic, changing place. Although all the works seen are part of our permanent collection, in order to show the full range of our holdings - over 2,000 objets d'art - and to accommodate important temporary exhibitions, certain works must occasionally be taken off view.

Modern Art

Modern Art includes artistic work produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and denotes the styles and philosophy of the art produced during that era. The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation. More recent artistic production is often called contemporary art or postmodern art.

Contemporary Art

Contemporary Art is the art of today, produced in the second half of the 20th century or in the 21st century. Contemporary artists work in a globally influenced, culturally diverse, and technologically advancing world. Some define contemporary art as art produced within "our lifetime".

Youngest son of artist William Yu, studied bachelor of science in business administration major in marketing. I had a solo art exhibit at Ellene art gallery, Greenhills and featured in the books :William Yu halelism book,

and William yu halelismo and the Neo Baybayin Calligraphy of the Philippines book.

My art styles are geometric abstraction, geometric expressionism and cubism.

For me art is the love of pictorial invention and a form of communication.

I don't just paint paintings, I paint Art.

“ The Blue Moon.”

Acrylic on canvas. . This is a painting from the " Two Dogs Barking" series.

Here the two men are locked in conversation as the Chardonnay wisdom begins to inspire their ability to solve all the world’s problems.

The ills of the world will be sorted out this evening and inspiring decisions will be made, but only the two dogs barking will remember as the morning sun breaks.

Another night under the blue moon.

It takes time to see it.

If you want to change the way you create your Art don’t let public opinion sway you.

It’s not that they are right, it’s that your Art is not wrong. We all look at the Impressionists and think they created wonderful paintings, because we can see them through appreciative eyes, but it wasn’t always that way.

When they first showed their new Art they were ridiculed, it caused riots and they were dismissed as crazy, the public couldn’t see their work and therefore it was wrong.

Yet over time they were accepted and honored and today we see them as great masters.

It’s not wise to follow public opinion when you are doing something new because their opinion can be very wrong because they cannot see it, it’s to different and therefore wrong, until it’s not and then it’s accepted. It’s not that they are right, it’s that your Art is not wrong.

Roger Fulgado

My art works speak for itself. I love painting nature, like flowers, trees, fruits, coconuts, plants, birds, koi fish, animals and landscapes and sometimes I’m commissioned to do Philippine churches and religious figures etc. I paint using oil on canvas and pastels on paper. When I start painting it seems I’m connected with my canvas and oil and there’s no turning back, says Roger Fulgado.

I like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have collected my artworks and supported me from the beginning. It’s quite a struggle meeting ends meet. I thank the Lord that I survived my passion and love for painting.

Rogelio Fulgado Delos Santos also known as Roger Fulgado in the Art scene as how he sign his masterpieces was born on March 7, 1962. He concentrated in Art in 1980 through the help of his brother Roland Delos Santos where he was taught the fundamentals of art like pencil, watercolor, acrylic, oil and pastel. Roger Fulgado has been painting ever since when he noticed he has the skills and talent in drawing. Fulgado’s art has some reason or purpose behind it. It’s more of traditional, symbolic, and religious. It brings beauty in our world. Those who collect my paintings sees pleasure and enjoyment with my work. Some serves as a healer, educator, friend, etc. Art has many roles in one who appreciate it.

He also read several books like Rembrant, Andrew Wyett, and William Harnett that inspired him a lot to capture the light, shade, color, harmony, and details of painting.

He joined various groups, gallery, exhibits and group shows. He is a member of Tanay Contemporary Artists, Tanay Artist Group and, Alegria Gallery. He participated in various group shows like Art and Antiques of Tanay Contemporary Arts, Alay sa Pinatubo at Robinson's Galleria, Faith and Frames at SM Megamall and, Christmas Healing for Children at the Manila Peninsula and Philippine Heart Center.

He also participated in the traveling exhibitions of Alegria Gallery in Vigan, Banguet, Cagayan de Oro, Pasig, Manila, and in the cities of Washington, D. C., New York, Chicago, Detroit, and Los Angeles.

The Philippine Consul General in San Francisco, USA also invited the Tanay Artists where he is a member to have an exhibit in the Embassy and until now their works are still displayed there.

He also worked with a fellow artist, Jun Tiongco in a mural wall painting in the house of Bob Kundalman in Colombo, Sri Langka.

A.FAUS (Anne Faustino)

A.faus is an emerging visual artist. She focuses on the sensual nature of Art, aiming to depict vision of thoughts & feelings through a combination of color, texture & symbolism.

She graduated Cum Laude in 2007 from the University of Santo Tomas, College of Fine Arts major in Advertising.

Painting through Soul Connection . The artist paints from her heart & soul. She gathers thoughts when she paints. She dives deep into the thoughts of emotions on blank canvases. It's a soulwork for her. She loves Art that attracts & seduces the viewer to get them thinking & make them feel something. Photography by: Paul Nacu

She expresses herself through Art, may it be in the form of painting or poetry. Its authenticity is raw & can be understood only by people who use & understand irony in their minds.

'' Back to my first love." she says.

The artist creative process

The Artist basically dwells through feelings & depths, with emotions.

"I have to feel something, to create something. When i get the feel of it, visual images zones through my mind like shooting stars waiting to blossom."

"While painting, I listen to music, there's a certain playlist on repeat for that certain artwork. Music to my ears while i stroke the brush to a blank white canvas. I had to listen, to find & feel the flow. Draw every line & fill empty spaces."

"Music & Art play the part to reach my heart." she says.

"You're the Sunflower" Acrylic on Canvas 24" x 30" 2019

Either you can view this work literally as it is, as the image or poetically as through the artists' mind.

"I need a little more time, to heal and be whole again. Can u feel my heart? It's still beating.. I'll know when its ready." the Rose says.

There is more to sunflower that meets the eye. The wide, open faces of the sunflowers symbolizes happiness, adoration & longevity. Thus, a lot like Love.

Some sunflowers bloom, Some waits for the sunshine. Some wilt & droop.

"...Its just not meant, You're the Sunflower, I'm A Rose.”

"The World i See, the Words i can't Speak." Acrylic on Canvas 36"×24 2020

Never let your environment dictate you on your views & perspectives. Let Love take over every now & again coz it is the only meaningful thing we can offer one another. Not advice, not questions about our choices, not suggestions for the future, just love. That is how powerful love is.

" Eye See You " Acrylic on Canvas 24"x24" 2020

LOVE is beautiful in ALL forms. Pride month inspired colors that vibrantly shouts that everyone should have equal rights.

I am an ALLY. " EYE see YOU " I am straight but i don't hate. More LOVE. Less HATE.

"A drift" Acrylic on Canvas 36"x36" 2020

"Sinking towards the end of the deepest core. The serene sea engulfing my being. And finally, I'm home.”

"To My Future Love" Acrylic On Canvas 10" × 12" 2020

To my future love: If you're there somewhere, I wanna meet your soul. Not now. When my heart is ready, Please wait. I'll meet you soon..
