THE arts is celebrated in this year’s Bangus Festival through the Tupada Revolt featuring 18 international and Manila-based visual artists on April 28 to 30.
Ed Sevilleja, one of the founding members of the Dagupan Artists Circle (DAC), said this is a new treat in the annual fiesta as it will give the audience a free taste of a different genre using action, time and space-based live art.
Sevilleja said Tupada Revolt, which is also dubbed as the TAMA ’08 Fifth International Action Art Event, will be brought by the Tupada Action and Media Art (TAMA).
The first event will be performed on April 28 on Burgos Street, at the area fronting the Mousehouse Internet Cafe, the event’s official multimedia sponsor. The succeeding performances will be held at the city plaza and at the CSI The City Mall.
Sevilleja said TAMA ’08 will end with performances, an art talk and collaborative exercises for the participating artists at the Tondaligan Beach on April 30.
The event, organized by DAC in cooperation with the city government, is also sponsored by: the Metrobank Foundation, Japan foundation, Art Association of the Philippines, Ambasciata d’ Italia, Henrich Boll Stiftung Southeast Asia, Instytut Adama Mickiewicza, Nippon International Performance Art Festival and Studio of Performance Art Academy of Fine Arts Krakow.—(CSR, Sunday Punch)
