GMA witnesses signing of town histories project agreement

GMA witnesses signing of town histories project agreement

Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo witnessed at noon today the signing of the Memorandum of Agreement for the Cebu Town Histories Project between the Province of Cevu, represented by Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia, and USC, represented by Fr. Teodoro Gapuz, SVD, vice president for academic affairs. The signing cermeonies were held at the Cebu Provincial Capitol on the occasion of the birthday celebration of Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia who turned 52 today.

The project, which intends to produce 55 books detailing the histories of each town and city in Cebu, is a brainchild of Gov. Garcia, who already expressed her desire to produce definitive histories of each town and city in the province---the first of its kind ever in the history of the country.

The project was sponsored by Hon. Agnes Magapale of the Cebu Provincial Board, which has unanimously approved assigned P12 million to the University of San Carlos to produce these definitive histories within 26 months. Each book is to be penned by a writer recommended by each town and city executive.

At USC, the project will be carried out under the leadership of Dr. Resil Mojares and Rene Alburo. The Department of History and Cebuano Studies Center are also collaborating to make the project a success. Other parties to the project are Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Inc. and the Visayas Studies Center of U.P. College Cebu.

Carolinian artists featured in national contemporary art show

Works by Carolinians featured in national contemporary art show

A fresh graduate and a third year student of the Department of Fine Arts were among the artists selected in the Sungdu-an, a national exhibit of contemporary art, held August 17-September 18 at the Museum of Three Cultures of Capitol University in Cagayan de Oro City.


Nomar Miano, a painting major who graduated last year, presented “Stigmata”, an oil painting that reflects the influence of semiology in art. Wesley Rasines, a graduating advertising arts major, screened “Patik”, a work that fused tattoo and video. With his classmate Rolan Alberto collaborating for sound, Wesley created “Patik” under a production grant from the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA).


Nomar Miano's "Stigmata". The painting has been recently acquired by the College of Architecture and Fine Arts as part of its permanent collection of outstanding student artworks.

Started in 2000 as the most comprehensive national survey of new art, the Sungdu-an is also the longest-running and the only curated show of contemporary art in the country It is always sponsored by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts but this year, the Printmakers Association of the Philippines helped fund the show, which carries the theme, “ExTensions”.

A team of four regional curators was appointed for the exhibit. This year’s curator for the Visayas was Radel Paredes, a member of the USC Fine Arts faculty.

Cheryl Dalman Montebon, wins Metrobank national design tilt

Fine Arts faculty wins Metrobank national design tilt

Cheryl Dalman Montebon an interior design instructor at the Department of Fine Arts (DFA) captured the Special Prize in the Metrobank Art and Design Excellence (MADE) Awards in ceremonies held last September 21 at Metrobank Plaza. The award, one of only two in the interior design category, carried a P150,000 cash prize. Montebon was recognized for her design of a condominium unit at the Oritental Garden Makati which she titled “Filtempo”, short for Filipino Contemporary.

A pre-selection process reduced the number of contestant to only two, pitting her with Grand Prize winner Wilhelmina S. Garcia of Manila in the contest which was entitled “Your Environment Shapes You”. The two contestants were given space to design the interiors at the cost of P299,000 each, charged to Metrobank. The actual design was carried out between the first week of July and until the deadline of July 24, with Montebon shuttling from Cebu to carry out her winning design.

Jose Jubilla, chair of the Professional Regulation Commission’s Board of Interior Designers, led the judges which included heritage architect and Philippine Star columnist Paulo G. Alcazaren, and educator and interior designer Cynthia Belleza, among others.

This is not Montebon’s first victory as she also won in the Bedroom Category of the International Furniture Fair in Singapore last March 1-5, 2006, with the Philippines participating for the first time.

Montebon teaches part-time in the DFA as she also works as furniture and home accessories designer of JLQ International Inc. She is a licensed interior designer and a member of the Philippine Institute of Interior Designers (PIID).

Montebon will open her first design firm in Talamban called M+E Design Concept thie coming October 15. It will be a mini showroom and an office for services like architecture, interior design and furniture design.

Carolinians selected for China Scholarship Program

Carolinians selected for China Scholarship Program
Two Carolinians were among 34 scholars sent to China for an all-expense-paid one-year study on Chinese language and culture through the China Scholarship Program of the Gokongwei Brothers Foundation.

Atty. Leslie Jeanne Y. Cordero and Joseph Niño K. Augusto were named among the 34 “talented and highly-driven young achievers,” according to the communication released by the Gokongwei Brothers Foundation. Cordero (Ph.B., 2001) and Augusto (B.S.A., 2005) both graduated magna cum laude from the University.

The standards and requirements for the selection of the scholars were rigorous. The screening process alone took six months and involved several phases that enabled the Foundation to identify scholars with exemplary academics, leadership skills, cross-cultural experience, career goals, communication and emotional maturity.

The scholars were sent to the Beijing Language and Culture University to help them understand the economic miracle of China and apply what they learn to the Philippine setting.
