Silverlens is excited to participate for the 12th consecutive year in this edition of Art Fair Philippines, featuring 57 artists working across a wide range of mediums, from February 20 - 23, 2025. Curated by gallery directors Isa Lorenzo and Rachel Rillo, Silverlens’ presentation consists of four capsule exhibitions – History and Identity, Dreams and Celestials / Coded Deities, Surface Tension, and Roots and Reefs – across three locations: Art Fair Philippines, Booth 9, Tower One, Ayala Triangle Gardens, Silverlens pop-up at Somerset, Olympia Building, Makati Avenue corner Santo Tomas Street entrance (lower ground floor), and Silverlens Manila, Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati City.

Silverlens is pleased to announce its participation in Frieze Los Angeles, in recognition of the need to come together and stand with Los Angeles and its arts community at this crucial moment. Silverlens will present a booth featuring works by Pacita Abad, Keka Enriquez, Kawayan de Guia, and Pow Martinez. Together, the artists hold a mirror to the sprawling influence of California, reflecting a complex interplay of geopolitical histories and the state’s enduring role as a gateway to the US for the Asia Pacific region.

To live in Robert Langenegger’s speculative world of paintings is to live in elegy and anomaly. These are lost, abandoned, and depleted worlds—but no corrective is being done here, as they ultimately show the vast possibilities of their continued yet fatal existence.

'Norberto Roldan: No Winter Lasts Forever' details the Filipino artist's transformative experience in Berlin during 2024. It highlights his exploration of themes like history, religion, and everyday life, influenced by the melancholic European winter. Inspired by flea markets, Roldan created a new body of artworks by reimagining discarded objects and photographs, reminiscent of his long-standing artistic process.

Silverlens is pleased to present 'Renato Orara: Entangled Pairs,' a major cross-continental exhibition of the artist's work, staged simultaneously across Silverlens' Manila and New York galleries. 'Entangled Pairs' consists of 100 lifelike ballpoint pen drawings of everyday objects: a glove and a plastic water bottle; a teapot and a hammer; a tomato and a butternut squash. These consecutively-made renderings are paired and split from their counterparts across two continents.

Ryan Villamael presents his first ever US solo exhibition 'ISLES' at Silverlens New York. 'ISLES' brings together all new paper-cut map sculptures encased in glass bell jars with an accompanying audio component—the artist's first foray into sound as a medium. For this deeply personal show, Villamael reflects on and traces connections between the Philippines' long and storied history of migration and his own family's story, highlighting a nation of people that have often found themselves the unfortunate casualties of collateral damage wrought by geopolitical tensions and negotiations.
