cafe des artes – a rising art gallery

outside, strains of sounds from passing motorists flitted through the quiet neighbourhood where residents start the day with a cup of coffee on one hand, a newspaper on the other, walking towards the nearest neighbour to engage in early morning chitchat. . .

where pedicab drivers start to conglomerate by the corner to try and pedal their way to earn for lunch. . .

but inside Cafe des Artes, a rising art gallery, housed in Villa Esperanza, an old ancestral Spanish house, nestled on the corner of the national road and one barangay road, one huge event happened on 2 July 2011 when OsacnaB opened his one man art show entitled “salmo ag berso”.

on said date, more than 60 artists and self-professed "art fans" chatted and snacked against a backdrop of dark wooden walls where at least thirty magnificent OsacnaB artworks are displayed,

and others wined amidst the lush fern garden just outside the gallery, immersed in the continuous drift of lively music from a violinist.

"salmo ag berso" runs the whole month of july 2011 at the Cafe des Artes. seeya!
