Globe Platinum hosts art film exhibit to fund homeschool kits #ForFutureHeroes
As the much-awaited Art Fair Philippines settles into the
digital space in its 9th
year, Globe Platinum is giving its customers a rare chance to immerse
themselves in the masterpieces of some of the world’s best digital artists while
at the same time support vulnerable children
from Baseco Compound, Manila.
In an ongoing partnership with Art Fair Philippines, Globe Platinum once
again co-presents the ArtFairPH/Film section, which spotlights
digital art films. While the exhibit is free and open to the public
from May 6-15 on www.artfairphilippines.com,
Globe Platinum customers are in for a treat because they will get
exclusive access to additional works by the featured digital artists.
At the Globe Platinum Art Film Weekend on May 8-9, guests can view the
pieces of Guy Oliver, whose interdisciplinary practice applies video and text,
digital print, painting, collage and performance; Jeremy Couillard, a
self-taught new media artist popular for his video game and virtual reality
works; Petra Cortright, touted as the Monet of the 21st century whose current
practice is derived from creating and distributing digital files; and Keiken, a
collaborative practice co-founded by artists Tanya Cruz, Hana Omori and Isabel
Ramos.
After the event, a special gift will also be delivered to participants’
doorsteps—an art film viewer that contains scenes
from the works of the ArtFairPH/Film featured artists and a one-year
pass to Daata, a platform for digital art where users can collect and stream
contemporary digital art.
What’s more, for every film viewed during the Art Film Weekend, a World Vision school
kit is sent to a child from Baseco Compound, Manila as part of Globe Platinum’s
#ForFutureHeroes program. Each kit contains DepEd-approved learning modules and
school supplies that will help the most vulnerable students transition to
online learning.
“As a staunch advocate of modern and
contemporary art, Globe Platinum is eager to make this first-ever online art
fair to become a very meaningful experience for our customers as we introduce
them yet to a new range of amazing works that can spark inspiration and hope in
these extraordinary times,” said James Alcantara, Globe Platinum Marketing
Director.
