“What does it mean to be Filipino?” is a question contemplated by Gigo Alampay, executive director of the Center for Art, New Ventures, and Sustainable Development (Canvas).

Having lived abroad for a number of years, he said, “Without judgment, Americans find it easy to say who they are. Here in our country, it’s sometimes easier to answer ‘What is a Batangueño, or what is an Ilocano?’ than it is to answer ‘What is a Filipino?’ There may be some stereotypes for regional identities, but at least there are characteristic identifiers. However, as a nation, sometimes it’s not easy to figure out who we are.”

He added, “There’s a notion that our lack of national identity may be one of the reasons why some people feel the Philippines has not really lived up to its full potential.”

The center’s latest endeavor is the “Looking for Juan Outdoor Banner Project,” an exhibition of artworks by some of the best contemporary Filipino artists who attempt to provide visual answers to the discussion.

“The project aims to collect at least a hundred artworks that will be reproduced as tarpaulin banners that will then be displayed in two highly accessible and pedestrian-friendly venues,” said Alampay.

“The Looking for Juan Outdoor Banner Project will showcase some of the country’s best creative talents. Artists, graphic designers and photographers have been asked to express their idea of the Filipino identity,” he said.

“The project is designed to engage visitors with its art-driven messaging about the Filipino identity. It will be a new kind of experience that allows visitors to view and appreciate great art as well as explore important social themes in a non-intimidating, relaxed, and creative environment.”

The first 40 to 50 original works that will be reproduced as banners were launched at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. The artworks will be on display until June 7. This original artwork exhibit will transfer to the Alab Art Space gallery (Intellectual Property Philippines Building along Buendia St., Makati) on June 8.

Meanwhile, the first outdoor banner exhibit will be at the end of May at the new Philippine Pacific Rim Friendship Park in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. The second will be in June at the University of the Philippines’ Academic Oval in Diliman. “Just in time for opening of classes and Independence Day,” he added.

Canvas has been actively involved with The Pacific Rim Project to build a Friendship Park in Puerto Princesa. Architecture and art students from different countries like China, South Korea, the United States, Russia, and Mexico were flown in earlier this month to interact with counterpart Filipino students. These volunteers will design, present to the city government, and actually build the whole park under the artistic supervision of leading artists, architects, and urban planners in just 30 days.

After the park is completed, it is given as a gift to the citizens of the Pacific and to the host city. All parks are for the public and are directly connected to the Pacific Ocean. The park will then become part of a network of Friendship Parks ringing the Pacific. There are already four parks in US, Russia, China, and Mexico.

To date, participants in the Looking For Juan Outdoor Banner Exhibit include Buen Abrigo, Leonard Aguinaldo, Daniel Aligaen, Reynaldo Amido, Mark Arcamo, Moralde Arrogante, Anton Balao, Jeho Bitangcor, Plet Bolipata, Elmer Borlongan, Malyn Bonayog, Serj Bumatay, Michael Cacnio, Buen Calubayan, Jeff Carnay, Salvador Ching, Marika Constantino, Salvador Convocar, Dansoy Coquilla, Geronimo Cristobal, Jigger Cruz, Don Dalmacio, Kawayan de Guia, Anna de Leon, Crisanto de Leon, Maan de Loyola, Farley del Rosario, Robert Deniega, Anthony Fermin, Tina Fernandez, Karen Flores, Liza Flores, Emmanuel Garibay, Juan Sajid Imao, Agang Maganda, Lotsu Manes, Josue Mangrobang, Roel Obemio, Wilfredo Offemaria, Jr., Marcial Pontillas, Anthony Palo, Anthony Palomo, Jay Pacena II, Jucar Raquepo, Omi Reyes, Iggy Rodriguez, Tres Roman, Kirby Roxas, Mark Salvatus, Julius Samson, Andoi Solon, Aner Sebastian, Angelo Tabije, CJ Tanedo, Rex Tatlonghari, Palma Tayona, Jomike Tejido, Juanito Torres, Ian Valladarez, Wesley Vallenzuela, Migs Villanueva and Liv Vinluan.

Selected students from the UP College of Fine Arts, members of Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan, various creative writers, as well as a number of graphic design and advertising studios, are also involved.

After the end of the outdoor banner exhibits, the banners will be recycled by two women’s communities in Antipolo and Laguna into tote bags and sold as original works of functional art. Proceeds from the sale of the tote bags will support Padyak, a UP Mountaineers-led movement to promote environmentalism and cycling as a healthy lifestyle.

    Malapit na po ninyo siyang makilala at ganap na makadaupang palad. Muli sa kanyang pagbabalik marami siyang ipapahayag, isasagawa upang ang nawawalang pag-asa ng pananaw at damdaming pinanghihina ng matinding kahirapan at sinasabayan pa ng ibat-ibang kaganapan gaya ng mga inilalarawan na inyong mapapanood (keyprogram_invitation@csk) Malapit na… malapit na malapit na… Muli siyang magbibigay ng ibayong sigla at saya. Ito ay totoo at hindi isang kwento, alam na alam ng lahat ng mga mahilig sa transaksyon (Yamashita Treasure, MARCOS Wealth, ….) na may iisa na lang na hinahanap kaya bigo sila sa lahat ng kanilang inaasahan. Mapalad tayo at siya ay kasama natin at laang ibahagi ang lahat sa lahat… Ngunit dapat tayong makasunod at masunod ang bilin. Tamang Tao… Tamang Lugar at Tamang Proseso… IPAALAM SA MGA MAHAL SA BUHAY, KAIBIGAN at mga KAKILALA. Muli maraming salamat…

    Magandang araw po sa ating lahat! Isa po sa mga juan na nais ko pong ipakilala sa inyo ang kuyajuan01 na di niyo kilala ngunit ngayon ay nais naming mabasa ang mga pahayag naging pahayag niya. Ngunit ang lahat ng ito ay maririnig po niyo kung panonoorin niyo ang keyprogram_invitation@csk na may english at bersyong Tagalog. {(www.keyprogram.ning.com ) Kasalukuyan pang isinasaayos.} sa google paki-type lang po ang kuyajuan01 ay may ilan na po kayong makikita. Paalala lang po para malubos ninyong maunawaan ang kabuuang bersyong ng TAGALOG part pareho po ninyong panoorin ang 2nd part at 3rd part nito. Maraming salamat po.

    Mga mahal naming kaibigan,
    Ngayon na ang panahon. Ito ang pinakahinihintay-hintay na ng lahat. Humudyat na ang trumpeta, isang panawagan pumailanlang sa sandaigdigan. Mensaheng ipinaabot mula sa Kasulatang balumbon, may sulat sa magkabilang panig, ngunit selyado ng mga tanda na tanging siya lamang ang makapagbubukas at makapagbibigay ng paliwanag ng mga inilihim na panukala ng may Akda ng lahat ng ito. Siya ang tanging humahawak ng pinakasusi ng programa. Programang di abot ng unawa di kayang ipaliwanag ng iba ngunit sa kanya ibinigay ang kapahintulutan at inabot ang Karunungan patungkol sa mga tandang inilihim upang sa takdang panahon ay ihayag, at kanyang ipakilala ang pinagmulan, ang may panukala at may Akda ng lahat ng ito.
    Kaya nga yamang bukas na ang pinto mga kaibigan. Nag-iisang pinto lang yan at iisa lang. Daan sa mga daan, pinagmulan ng mga panukala at mga patotoo kaya’t matibay, matatag at totoo. Ito ang tamang daan na pinili niyang taluntunin na siyang daluyan ng mga biyayang walang kabalisahan. Kapayapaan, kapahingahan at kapanatagan ang dito’y manganlong. “Halina kayong lahat! keyprogram_invitation@csk (Imbitasyon 2009). Lahat ay kasama, Lahat ay kaibigan, Bawa’t isa ay may partisipasyon. Magsama-sama na tayo sa bukas na pinto. Biyaya ko’y biyaya niyo! Tahanan ko’y tahanan niyo. Pag-ibig ang dala dala ko.
    Ngayon na ang panahon ng pakikipagkaisa, ng pakikipagkasundo sa kanya. Napapanahon na ang pagbabagong-buhay Piliin natin ang mabuti yan ang ibig niya kaya nakasunod at kinalugdan Siya. Narito Siya sa Pilipinas. Sa pagkalinga at pangangalaga ng “Mother Control” Piniling bansa upang dito isagawa at mabuksan ang lahat ng saklaw ng programa, Kaya’t narito rin ang lahat ng sagot sa mga katanungan ng nakararami na; saan natin makikita ang gamot at lunas ng lumalalang kahirapan at mga tumitinding kaguluhan? Paano pa maisasalba ang pandaigdigang merkado na halos lugmok at bagsak na sa tunay nitong kalagayan? At paano pa makababayad sa World Bank ang mga bansang baon na baon na sa pagkakautang, kung ang bawa’t nagiging lider ng mga bansa nila’y dito na nakadepende sa panghihiram upang mapagtakpan ang malalang kalagayan ng bansang kinabibilangan? Hanggang kailan matatapos ang pagdaing ng mga taong nagugutom na at mga nag-aaklas para hingin ang mga karagdagang umento at ibat-iba pang kahilingan? Kailan makakalagan ang kahirapan at sino ang maglalapat ng katarungan sa mga napagkaitan nito? Sino ang nagtataglay ng tunay na kapayapaan? Ilang inaguration pa ang isasagawa para lumutang na ang “iisa na lang” na laging sinasabi at naririnig ngunit hindi naman lumilitaw. Tanong kung bakit? Dahil ibang tao! Ibang dako! Ibang proseso!

    Wala sa kanya ang pagkukulang, mga mahal kong kaibigan. Ibinigay na niya sa nakararami ang mga detalyeng marapat na isagawa ngunit may nakalimot sa tunay at totoong kasunduan nakapaloob. Humanap pa at pumili ng iba, nagtatag, nagtayo ng sarili at kanya kanya, dahil ang ipinapalagay, kahit wala siya iisa lang ang patutunguhan natin, kahit wala siya makukuha nila ang bahagi nila. Ngunit paulit ulit na kabiguan para sa kanila at sa mga tumutulong sa gugulin nila.. Kahit lihitimo at rehistrado mga dalang patotoong dokumento hindi na mabuksan, di na magalaw, di na mailipat, di na magamit pa! Dahil saklaw na ng programa na sumailalim sa Pandaigdigang Kasunduan na pinagtibay ng mga nauna pang mga lider ng mga bansang nagkakaisa. Kaya’t sa panig ng mga may accounts na ipinakikilang pagmamay-ari na nila, ngunit ang totoo’y mula sa pinagmulan ng lahat ng bagay at hinabilin lamang sa kanila. Kaya bumalik na sa pinaka “MOTHER ACCOUNT” ang perang ginagamit ng buong mundo kaya ang lahat ng mga bansa ngayon ay dumaranas ng GLOBAL CRISIS. Kaya nga kahit kilala na nila ang tamang tao, na nakakaalam ng tamang dako at tamang proseso kung hindi natin kinikilala ang kanyang kahalalan bilang Tagapanguna sa bagay na naibilin, ibinigay at naipagkatiwala sa kanya, isang paglilinaw walang magaganap na inagurasyon.
