Maribago Bluewater Gallery presents two of Cebu’s respected artists Boy Kiamko and Jet Florendo in an exhibit dubbed as “Dual Exposure” which will run from October 14 – November 13, 2009.

Cebu is home to great pool of artists but it is unfortunate that most of them don’t get much recognition they deserve. In fact, most of them paint and sculpt not for a living but for the love of it. It has always been a fervent prayer that someday Cebu will have its own museum to showcase the rich heritage and arts of the oldest city of the Philippines. For now, we are to content ourselves that there are some private individuals and corporations that put up significant amount of investments to set up galleries and highlight cebuano artistry and creativity. The one in Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort is a welcomed development and campaign to raise awareness among the locals and foreigners alike.

DualXposure
This is the first back-to-back exhibit of both Kiamko and Florendo with their new visual artworks. Florendo’s sculpture stands complement for every Kiamko’s paintings hanged. The month long exhibit is at Bluewater Gallery at Maribago, Lapu-lapu City. The Bluewater Gallery is the only premier resort gallery in Cebu and home to more than 16 art exhibits of more than 25 Filipino artists.
