His Excellency, Lee Hyuk, Ambassador, Republic of Korea, delivered the Welcome Remarks at the opening reception of the 3rd Philippine-Korean Contemporary Art Exchange Exhibit, with theme, 'Coexistence in Asia', held at the Korean Cultural Center in the Philippines (KCC).
This 2014 Exchange Exhibit is in celebration of the 65 years of bilateral relations between Korea and the Philippines.
Prof. Leonardo Rosete, Dean of UP College of Fine Arts, recognized five artists, in his Congratulatory Remarks, namely: Filipino artists Geraldine Javier, Manny Montelibano and Leslie de Chavez; and Korean Artists Kim Min-kyung and Joo Dae Hee. And these artists were presented a certificate and gift each, by Mr. OH Choong-suk, Director. Korean Journalist, Ms. J. Iirh, who discussed the art residency program earlier during the day, was likewise recognized.
While having Korean dinner, we were entertained by the nice performances of:
