The Present National Art Gallery is part of the four buildings of the National Museum Complex. The Gallery showcases the works of the National Artists as well as the contemporary artists of the country. It is housed in the old Senate Building until 2003 when it was renovated to be a museum.
During the holidays, it is perfect to see the museums in the Metro to educate ourselves as well as to have a digital detox. They are one jeepney away from each other and most of them have free entrance!
You can see below some of the artworks that really caught my attention, however, I advise to you guys to visit the museum and be inspired with the artworks. Don't worry, roaming around the place will only take you 2 hours at the most.
