Lopez Museum and Samsung Presents Propaganda Exhibit on February 6

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Art has embraced the use of science and technology to create more engaging displays of creativity and the imagination. With the fast-paced developments in the scientific and technological fields, it is not surprising that other fields are tapping the opportunities to collaborate to reach out to more people and get the much needed attention towards the appreciation of art.


A partnership in presenting to the public more vivid and detailed masterpieces is more than welcomed by many artists and art enthusiasts. We all know museums should become one of the many preferred destinations by both local and foreign tourists who value both the nation's culture and artistic means of expression whether through traditional paintings and sculptures or modern craftsmanship aided by technology.

This is why I am excited about the partnership between the Lopez Museum & Library and Samsung as it opens its first exhibition for 2015. The exhibition is entitled 'Propaganda' and will be held on February 6, 2015.

The exhibition fleshes out the idea of myth-making and its capacity to inspire change or derail genuine national progress. Using state-of-the-art Samsung equipment and programming to enhance the museum-going experience thru digital technology, it is an exhibition that challenges not just our notions of art and history, but also how we view museums and libraries.

Discover Italianni’s New ‘Tastes Of Italy’ Dishes Inspired By Authentic Italian Flavors

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Who doesn't want to go to Italy? Traveling in this 'bel paese' would always be welcomed any day of the year. I would quickly pack my bags carrying even just a few shirts and jeans just so I won't miss the chance of returning to this beautiful country. Given any opportunity to attend an event or special occasion, I will immediately drop everything that I'm doing just to experience Italy all over again.



Aside from their seemingly exquisite and sophisticated manner of speaking, the Italians are very much well-dressed and family-oriented. The passion and flair that Italians are known for are evident, not only in their culture and the arts, but in their cuisine as well. Italy has a rich culinary history that has been developed with a variety of influences. Antipastos and primos lovingly tease the palate ; secondos are savory, they immediately satisfy while dolces are decadent, you could not afford to miss a mouthful.

The delectable dishes of Italy come alive in Italianni’s new offerings collectively known as “Tastes of Italy.” Created by Bistro Corporate Chef, Josh Boutwood, these were inspired by the authentic flavors of the region using fresh ingredients. What’s more, they are available in big servings that are made for sharing, staying true to the Italian tradition of celebrating with family and friends over mounds of food on the dining table.
