2011 Metrobank Art and Design Excellence (MADE)
Artistic Immersion in Celebration of the National Arts Month: Ani ng Sining Lecture Series

Metrobank Foundation Art and Design Excellence (MADE) gears up this 2011 by participating in the Philippine International Arts Festival (PIAF) entitled “Ani ng Sining” in celebration of the National Arts Month. Adhering to its commitment to the promotion of arts and culture especially in the youth, MADE, in partnership with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, will conduct a lecture series with special topics on visual arts, sculpture, architecture and interior design. Specific lecture topics are: visual arts, print making, furniture design, functional art and infusing nature & culture into the built environment. Distinguished artists and scholars in their respective fields were invited to discuss their area of expertise. More than giving inspiration, MADE aims to ignite change by providing venues for interactive scholarly discussions on the role of art in the progress of our culture and national identity as Filipinos. As it is our core objective to encourage young artists and designers to excel in their career, MADE continuously creates opportunities where young artists and designers can engage themselves in their art and gain deeper understanding of their role in Philippine society. The lecture series will be conducted in various schools in Metro Manila (University of the Philippines Diliman and Far Eastern University Manila) and the provinces of Cagayan de Oro (Xavier University, Cagayan de Oro City) and Negros (Negros Museum, Bacolod City). The lecture series is accompanied by a traveling exhibition of the MADE 2010 winning works.

“MADE national competition continues to give meaning to the works of these young artists” said Metrobank Foundation President, Mr. Aniceto M. Sobrepeña. Further, he adds, “in partnership with NCCA, we hope not only to inspire young artists and designers but also to ignite their passion so they will continue to enrich the Filipinos’ artistic cultural heritage.”

MADE is composed of four (4) competitions, which are Painting, Sculpture, Interior Design, and Architecture. The Painting Competition is categorized into two: Oil/Acrylic on Canvas and Watermedia on Paper. The Painting and Sculpture Competitions are open-theme competitions for Filipinos 18 to 35 years old and without any solo exhibition. The Interior Design Competition is open to licensed interior designers 25 to 45 years old, while the Architecture Competition is for licensed architects 25 to 50 years old. Deadline for submission of entries is on May 7, 2011 for Painting and Sculpture and May 24,2011 for Interior Design and Architecture.

Aside from the recognition, winners for each competition will receive PhP 200,000 for the Grand Prize and PhP 150,000 for the Special Prize. Entry forms for the competition can be downloaded from the Metrobank Foundation website, www.mbfoundation.org.ph. MADE is an annual competition which aims to recognize budding artists in the fields of painting, sculpture, architecture and interior design, as well as to launch and enhance their careers.

The Metrobank Foundation is the corporate social responsibility arm of the Metrobank Group of Companies chaired by Dr. George S.K. Ty. Over the last 30 years, it has promoted a culture of excellence among Filipinos through its various programs notably the Search for Outstanding Teachers, the Metrobank Art and Design Excellence, The Outstanding Philippine Soldier, Country’s Outstanding Policemen in Service, the Metrobank Math Challenge, and College Scholarship Program. The Foundation also has a grants program that assists NGOs and government in the fields of education, healthcare, and the arts. Metrobank Foundation celebrates Filipino excellence and presents wellsprings of hope in the future of our nation.

-I hope this repost of the Metrobank Art and Design Excellence 2011 mechanics and details helps you guys if you are looking for a painting competition this 2011. I haven’t joined any Metrobank Arts Competition yet because of conflict of schedule and i hope I can join next year.

How to get to the old facebook layout?

The new facebook layout sucks!
There must be an antidote there somewhere.. ahaahaha..

Would you want to Revert your Facebook Layout to the Old Facebook Layout. A lot of People are asking how to revert or put back the good old Facebook Layout. Some Facebook users like the new Facebook Layout, but still, more and more people can’t get over with the old Facebook layout. It’s more user friendly and it’s easier to navigate.

Do you want to revert your Facebook layout to the old one? As of now, there’s no option to bring back the old Facebook layout. And I think there will be no option from now until forever. (hahaha) Unless Mark Zuckerberg decides to put back the old Facebook layout. But that is extremely impossible. So what we should do now is get used to the New Layout and forget the Good Old Facebook Layout.
