Bose is a
postmodern retrospective of the late Baguio visual artist and cultural
provocateur Santiago Bose. Borne out of the vestiges of his legacy, the
exhibit contextualizes his impact on Philippine art through modern
takes of Bose's reach by more than 35 visual, literary, and multimedia
artists.
Among the highlights are literary and visual works inspired by anting-anting, and
videos chronicling Bose's life, work, and influence. Also on view is
Bose's final, unfinished work, the mural Return of the Comeback, as well as a
collaborative remix of Return
of the Comeback by contemporary artists.
Remix: Santiago Bose is presented by the Yuchengco Museum and the Santiago Bose estate.
