In partnership with Epson Philippines, Art Fair Philippines recently presented The Unconfined Cinema, which marks 100 years of Philippine cinema. This is Art Fair’s inaugural film section which showcased masterful local films as a collective representation of Philippine Cinema without boundaries.
Curated by film critic Philbert Dy, film composer Erwin Romulo and film archivist and historian Teddy Co., The Unconfined Cinema utilized three Epson EB-L1505 high brightness laser projectors to screen various Filipino films last February 21-23, 2020 at The Link in Makati City, Metro Manila, Philippines. Showcasing the power of Epson’s 3LCD technology, the films were projected with uncompromised quality, delighting the audience with stunning images and vibrant colors which brought more life to some of the country’s best films.
“The cinema experience wouldn’t have been complete without proper projection,” Dy said. “The short throw distance gave us a lot of flexibility in designing our space, helping us truly become an unconfined cinema.”
Founded in 2013, Art Fair Philippines is the premier platform for exhibiting and selling the best in modern and contemporary Philippine visual art. The fair aims to mirror the vibrant local art scene and continues to generate support for Filipino art practitioners.
The fair is committed to expanding the local audience for the visual arts. Set in an alternative urban venue, Art Fair Philippines makes art accessible to enthusiasts and those who want to discover one of Southeast Asia’s most exciting art landscapes.
