These proposals should be made in consonance with a diplomatic milestone celebration, pursuant to an international commitment arising from Philippine membership to international organizations, or to implement the provisions of an executive program of a cultural agreement. Exhibition proposals from foreign institutions or groups should be coursed through the NCCA International Affairs Office.
Likewise, established artists will have the opportunity to share their conceptual narratives to the audience and encourage engagements in the arts.
Through the gallery, both the NCAG and the NCVA aim to provide young and emerging artists a venue for exposure without curtailing creative exploration and expression. This was in response to the burgeoning contemporary art scene in the Philippines.ĭedicated to contemporary arts, the NCCA Gallery is a joint initiative of the National Committee on Art Galleries (NCAG) under the Subcommission on Cultural Heritage, and the National Committee on Visual Arts (NCVA) under the Subcommission on the Arts. At the heart of its base of operations in Intramuros, the National Commission for Culture and the Arts further fulfils its service to the Filipino Visual Arts community by opening its exhibition space known as the NCCA Gallery at the lobby of the NCCA Building in 2009.
