Art Fair Philippines

Recommendation by Lemi

A bonus: survey the breadth of Philippine contemporary art in one go! Every year since 2013, when February or March rolls around, over 40 galleries—both commercial and artist-run—replace the wheels that occupy The Link car park. White gallery walls and air-conditioning are built into the space, but the concrete floor complete with markings remain. The opportunity to exhibit at the fair is purely by invitation, but the organizers have been committed to fully represent it all. The canon and the emergent, the serious or the experimental; for a week, it’s all there. The fair started from a single floor of The Link car park to a whopping six in 2018! Talks and Art Fair PH-exclusive projects have also been increasingly integrated into the program, making it the most coveted ticket in the Manila art scene.
