stepsof three women graphic artists in the 1970s and
1980s. Imelda Cajipe-Endaya, Brenda V. Fajardo, and
Ofelia Gelvezon-Tequi. They have entered the art scene

CCP Centennial Honors for the Arts in 1999. Her
nationalistic themes are taken from Philippine Folklore,
legends, and mythology. She then relates them to
contemporary life. Her works are mostly in pen and ink
acrylic.
12
The Order of National Artists has been established by virtue
of the Presidential Proclamation No. 1001’s 1972 and aims to
give appropriate recognition and prestige to Filipinos who

contributions to Philippine arts and letters. It is the highest

1.The artist has created a significant body of work and or/has
consistently displayed excellence in the practice of his/her art,
thus achieving important contributions for its development.
2.The artist has been instrumental in the revitalization of his/her

community the skills in the
folk art for which the community is traditional known.

World-class
Artists
The Philippine contemporary arts have so developed and matured
that our artists can now stand proudly on the world stage.
El Gamma Penumbra - a shadow play group of young locals from
Tanauan, Batangas. The group won first place in the first television
production of Asia’s Got talent in Singapore in May 2015. They have
conquered the hearts not only of the Filipinos but of Asians as well.
41
In visual arts, the Filipinos have also made a big scene. Once
again, the Philippines is participating in the Venice Biennale
after fifty-one years of absence. The Venice Biennale is a
prestigious international art exhibition that started in 1895.
One of its aims is to showcase the latest work of art from
different nations.
Patrick Flores - professor of Art Studies and curator of the
Vargas Museum of the University of the Philippines, was
chosen to curate the Philippine Pavilion. He named the exhibit
“Tie a String around the World”. Representing the Philippines
are artists Jose Tence Ruiz, Manny Montellano, Gus Albor,
Lito Carating and Jing Turalba. It is wonderful to know that
Philippine Pavilion has been named in the best list and a “must
see” among the international pavilions.
42
Cecil Licad – among the first contemporary artists to be
acclaimed internationally is a gifted classical pianist. As a child
prodigy, she made her debut at the age of seven as soloist with the
Philippine Harmonic Orchestra. She was also one of the youngest
musicians to receive the prestigious Leventritt Competition Gold
Medal in 1981.
Lea Salonga - one of several hundred Asian aspirants to be
chosen for the role of Kim in the 1989 musical Miss Saigon in
London and later in Broadway for which she received a Tony
Award. The Tony award is Broadways equivalent to
Hollywood’s Academy Award, or Oscars. She also performed as
Fantine and Eponine in another hit musical, Les Miserables; as
singing voice of both Mulan in the Disney movie Mulan; and
Princess Jasmine in another Disney film Alladin.
43
Lisa Macuja-Elizalde - the country’s first prima ballerina is the
first foreign soloist to join Kirov Ballet, a famous Russian ballet
company. She has won several awards both national and foreign-
for her recitals. One of these awards is a spot in 1997 Ten
Outstanding Young Persons of the World in the USA. She was also
given the Order of International Friendship by Russian President
Vladimir Putin in 2001.
Charice Pempengco (a.k.a Jake Zyrus) - became famous
when Ellen Degeneres discovered her on You Tube a few years
ago. After a short stint in the United States, she has returned and
is now a popular recording artist.
Philippine arts today are active and vibrant because of the
Filipino artist’ talent, creativity, skill and their perseverance even
in times of turmoil that drive them to pursue their dreams.
