The Museum at DLSU presents FRAGMENTS: Cityscape stories and reflections
The Museum at De La Salle University opened its third exhibition that focuses on art and environment entitled FRAGMENTS: Cityscape stories and reflections. The exhibit will be on view until August 18 at the 2nd Level of the Don Enrique Yuchengco Hall in the Manila campus.
The word “Fragment” means “broken off,” “incomplete,” or “detached.” This alludes to people’s stories within the city, their lives and experiences as a small piece of a whole.
The exhibit presents the essential structures and developments of a city plus people’s activities at daytime and nighttime, as interpreted by artists. The selected pieces also express stories of inspiration through their artistic representation of the physical aspects of a city. It aspires to motivate and encourage viewers to participate, in their own way, in making our surroundings clean, orderly, beautiful, and pleasantly inhabitable.
The exhibit also gives viewers freedom to speak of their mind through art by creatively writing their opinions, drawing, and forming puzzles. This serves as an interactive experience for all visitors. This aspect of the exhibit aims to touch the domains of learning through the use of cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills in order to encourage viewers’ formulation of fresh ideas which can be applied in their daily lives.
The artworks in “Fragments” are from the Wili and Doreen Fernandez collection, University art collection, and loaned works from selected artists and art collectors.
This exhibition is open to the general public. For more information, please contact The Museum at (+632) 5244611 local 368 or email: nicky.bradecina@dlsu.
