In Memory.Pacita 1946-2003

2 days of Archives service learning ends...Van,Joce and Doreen...looks like i won't know what you guys would be doing for AVA,but I think CY,Ci,Rara and SK have just did our part for the archiving of art history in Singapore.it's like,with every video watched,we got insights of how much that Pacita Abad have contributed to the art scene in Singapore

unfortunately though,all the vibrant colours and unique media Pacita has worked on,all inspired from her trips around the world,would be only seen on video.if she hadn't worked on the bridge at clarke quay,if not for the collaboration with the Singapore Tyler Print Institute,Singapore's visual arts scene would have been like a desert,much less a melting pot of cultures.though she's Filipino,her contributions to the arts scene deserves to be better appreciated by the public.i find that all of us were questioning who the heck is Pacita Abad,but the videos have more or less rubbed off the art connoiseur in some of us

actually i'm not an insider myself,but the Archives are also doing their part in keeping art history.this stint have been extremely fruitful although I heard tt gary and the guys from Accession got to wield katanas and other artefacts.hehe will leave here for now
