Lopez Museum, Graffiti Displays


I was invited to tour the Lopez Museum along with the other online media journalists. The paintings were truly amazing and captivating. I have seen different works of Filipino artists but none are as good as the collection at the Lopez Museum. The highlight for me was the Graffiti displays which showed the finer part of graffiti and turned them into art. Some of the paintings reminded me of the streets in Harlem and the Queens. Graffiti or street murals reflect raw emotions of someone else’s life experience. One of the nicest paintings I've seen was that of FPJ’s, the famous Filipino action star which the artist painted because FPJ was his hero in life.
