ZEUS!: God of All Gods

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Who are Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades? They are the Greek Gods who ruled the sky and thunder, the sea, and the underworld. The one that amazed me was Zeus’s strength and leadership. Among gods and goddesses that belong in the mount Olympus, Zeus was the highest god, for he is the god of all gods and mortals. In Romans he is called Jupiter, in Hindu he is called Indra and in Etruscan he is Tinia. Betray him once and you will taste his wrath!

Zeus was the youngest of the six children of Cronus and Rhea. His brothers and sisters were Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, and Poseidon. Cronus swallowed these five siblings of Zeus. Cronus swallowed them because the oracle said that he was to overcome by his own son until Rhea heard about this. Rhea then find a way to give birth to his son Zeus, so he went to island of Crete and as a replacement for the baby, Rhea gave his husband a rock wrapped in swaddling clothes which then ate by Cronus.

ArtWearAble at The Yuchengco Museum : Open Until Sept 7

Contemporary artists see the human body as a canvas for expression as well as for adornment. By creating pieces for the body, they blur the line between functionality and embellishment, storytelling and shock appeal, and design and aesthetics.

In line with its direction to feature Design as Art/Art as Design, the Yuchengco Museum is spearheading a series of exhibits entitled ArtWearAble. The ArtWearAble series will highlight artists who not only explore materials and design, but also merge the traditional, ethnic, or elegant with the industrial, recycled, outrageous, and innovative.

The result is works of art meant to be worn as daring statements with drama and flair. The inaugural group exhibit will present expressive fine art and modern jewelry by the country’s most recognized painters, sculptors, designers, and architects.
