GMA Network is proud that its employees and talents are not boxed into simply television performance.
Recently, the network displayed the artworks of its employees and talents, showcasing the breadth of the Kapuso in the field of the arts in the exhibition called Art Gap 2016 that ran until Dec. 9 at the GMA Network Center in Quezon City.
Art Gap featured almost 50 paintings of various subjects and media. GMA’s socio-civic arm, GMA Kapuso Foundation (GMAKF), was the beneficiary of the exhibition.
The exhibit opened on Nov. 24 on the mezzanine floor of the GMA Network building. It featured works by talented featured artists, among them Solenn Heussaff, Isabelle de Leon, and GMA News and Public Affairs’ Connie Sison.
At the opening, GMA Network Chairman and CEO Felipe L. Gozon, along with other officers including EVP and CFO Felipe S. Yalong, GMAKF EVP and COO Rikki Escudero-Catibog, GMAKF Founder and Ambassador Mel C. Tiangco, GMA First VP for Post Production Edward Achacoso, GMA VP for Professional Development Howie Severino and GMA VP for Corporate Affairs and Communications Angela Javier Cruz were all there to show support for the network’s artists.
Dingdong Dantes, the network’s Primetime King, was the special guest.
Now on its 15th year, Art Gap began in 2001 as a painting exhibit featuring some of the finest works of GMA employees and select on-cam talents, like Joey de Leon, Michael V., and the late Francis Magalona.
Through the years, it has developed into an art competition that showcases the creativity and talent of the GMA workforce. The competition has featured various artwork including painting, photography and caricature drawings.
