Last December 16, 2011, I was able to visit The Lopez Memorial Museum & Library. If I could remember it right the last time I’ve visited a museum was when I was kid during our educational trip. And it was many years ago. I cannot say that I am a fan of museums but something in me instilled a different notion of it when we visited yesterday .
Yesterday we
were lucky to have visited a different and “refreshing” kind of art
installation at The Lopez Museum & Library.
The exhibit
is all about “Chabet” and" Reverb". Who is Chabet, anyway ? (you may ask?) Chabet graduated from the University of Santo Tomas in 1961 where he took Architecture. Chabet's works ( as he have said) were "Creatures of the mind". He also played great influenced in making "conceptual art" be known till this day.
Chabet’s art practice spans half a century already. For
me, his works has a different impact on how you see and feel his works. His
works are on exhibit to signify also his 50th anniversary as an
artist. Chabet’s works mostly play around form which at first glance may mean
nothing. But once you delve deeper and "play' it on your mind , you may say that it exercise what the mind can put art in form.
Reverb is a sound created after in an enclosed space causing a large number of echoes to build up and slowly decay as the sound is absorbed by the walls and air (according to my bestfriend Wikipedia).
Both Reverb and Chabet's works compliment individually. So combining them in The Lopez Museum and Library is something to look forward for museum enthusiasts.
