GET A CHANCE TO WIN A FREE TOUR OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM! i gotta go! is giving away a pair of passes to john silva's tour of the national museum, which includes the various galleries in the museum of the filipino people and the national art gallery in the old national museum.
Ayala Museum invites the public to IMAGES IN STONE: Art in Fossils from the Larry Gotuaco Collection, which opens on 16 September 2008 at the Third Floor Glass Lane.
The exhibition reveals a collector's great infatuation with fossils. It showcases a quality selection of actual fossils and the magnified images found on them, created solely by natural forces, without any human intervention. Found in several parts of the world and of various ages, the fossils are divided into four main categories: petrified wood, dinosaur bones and by-products, ammonites, rocks and stones. Using photography to present the multiplicity of designs, patterns, colors, and shapes, this exhibition shows organic transformed to inorganic matter to art from nature. Together, the fossils and the images reveal a multiplicity of colors, forms, sizes, and shapes that can only be brought about by earth’s constant transformation.
Fossils are the remains of living organisms that have been preserved in stone. They are concrete proof of the existence of plants and animals that once lived on this earth many millions of years ago. Fossils come in a multitude of colors, forms, shapes, and sizes that are difficult to imitate or replicate and can be admired and appreciated, studied, and pondered upon—showing that the beauty of the physical world is eternal.
IMAGES IN STONE will be open for public viewing until 30 November 2008. For lecture schedules and other inquiries, please call Dianne at 757-7117 to 21 local 29.
*The actual exhibition cannot be photographed, the pieces/fossils in this album are meant to be touched and are allowed by the owner to be photographed for that time only.
