Immerse yourself in a world of art and creativity. Join us for the first-ever Balesin Art Fair which opens on February 23 and runs until February 25, 2024 at Toscana Village, featuring the works of Balesin members and featured artists from Galerie Francesca among whom are highly sought-after artist Roel Obemio, realist-abstractionist Carlo Magno, prominent artists Amado Hidalgo, Anna de Leon, Celeste Lecaroz, Christian Mirang, Edgar Doctor, Helena Alegre, Joy Rojas, Julie Gil, and Omi Reyes.
This year’s Balesin Art Fair will take place in not one, but two distinct venues. The first venue, set amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of Balesin Island—promises an unparalleled artistic experience in a setting that can only be described as #UniqueInTheWorld. The second venue, nestled in the heart of Makati, is the prestigious City Club—where the vibrant pulse of the city intertwines seamlessly with the captivating world of art. These exceptional showcases will be on view until February 29, 2024, even after the art fair.
