The Congressional Spouses Foundation Inc., headed by its new president and chairperson Taguig-Pateros Rep. Lani Cayetano, will launch “Pinto sa Kongreso: An Art Appreciation Exhibit,” a fund-raising art exhibit, Monday, Sept. 23, 1 p.m., at the South Wing Lobby of the House of Representatives in Quezon City.
The art exhibit in partnership with the Pinto Art Gallery will run until Oct. 3.
Guests of honor include House Speaker Alan Peter S. Cayetano, Rep. Cayetano’s husband, and Dr. Joven Cuanang from the Pinto Art.
This is the first project of the CSFI in the 18th Congress.
“The art exhibit envisions an exhibition that generously present contemporary art practice, putting a spotlight on the remarkable Filipino talent, creativity, and imagination. Proceeds from the exhibit will be for the benefit of the livelihood programs and projects of the CSFI,” Rep. Cayetano said.
The exhibit will feature over 75 prominent artists in Philippine visual arts. Their works that portray various themes, from abstract expressions to figurative depictions of every day life to fantastical representations of surreal imagery, enrich the Filipino culture that captures the noble spirit of the nation.
