WARNING: This post is picture heavy (this blogger had the hardest time ever to decide which pictures to post ~ :P )
Truth be told, Pinto Art Museum is more than just a museum! It is living and breathing work of ART! It is an amazing place, full of exceptional art pieces that made my eyes pop out of excitement.
Pinto Art Museum is a 1.3 hectare lot area, with about six huge galleries, a chapel, vast gardens (including a sculpture garden and a full size pool) and café ~ perfect for an all day "all you can shoot selfies".
Now for the art pieces I love...
This collection titled, "Transient Present" is by Ms. Sandra Fabie-Gfeller. Me and my friends love the movements, lines and color of her paintings.
Another favorite piece is this eccentric chair. I so love this picture too.
This is my favorite of the sculptures adorning Pinto's garden. I was really awed, when I saw there is an actual sculpture of a baby inside this mother's womb.
Yes, a jaw dropping piece - this one! The sculptor used mesh and wire and created "LOVE".
This painting entitled "Karnabal" is 12 feet high and 40 feet wide, it took 16 painters (who call themselves Salingpusa) to finish it.
Found these pieces ingenious and clever. I really want them in my garden!
What about a wall size window that opens to a beautiful garden :P
My and my girls!
My handsome hubby, just so "into" the moment... Pinto has that effect on people.

TIPS:
- Pinto Museum is huge, I suggest you wear comfortable walking shoes (rubber shoes preferably) touring the place requires a lot of walking and climbing up and down stairs. When you think you have covered all, you would be surprised there are more galleries in the lower grounds waiting to be discovered.
- Bring a change of clothing, face cloth and water.
- Try to visit on a weekday (as it tends to be crowded during weekends).
- And lastly don't forget your camera (oh and make sure your battery is full charged).
I would also love to have my photo taken while seating on that eccentric chair too! That's so cool =)
ReplyDeleteCute right? Me and my girlfriends had so much fun posing seated on this chair.
DeleteHello There! Thank you for the virtual tour on Pinto Art Museum. It's nice to see those beautiful art pieces of painting and sculpture. I personally love the mesh and wire created love piece. :) xx

These artists are so creative, there so many art pieces on display at Pinto Art Museum, saying I am unable to post them all.
Deletethanks for this. surely another place to visit especially now that the boys are home for their Christmas break.
ReplyDeletePinto Art is a place worth visiting. So many things to see.
DeleteJust curious, is it indoors or outdoors? Why the need for change of clothing? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie it is a huge complex. It has open sculpture gardens and a number of galleries that requires changing buildings, lots of walking and going up and down stairs ~ it could be tiring.
DeleteInteresting place to check out with the kids!
ReplyDeleteHi Rowena, try check it out if you have time. The Place is really wonderful!
DeleteGreat place, I myself would have hundreds of pictures taken there, haha. I would love to have a chair like that as an accent chair in the living room.
ReplyDeleteNice chair huh? Sad I wasn't able to get the name of the artist who made it. I like it too.
DeleteLooks like they have lots of photo worthy spots and pieces of art here. I'll make it a point to visit this place when in Antipolo. Thanks for sharing and the tips!
ReplyDeleteHi Lei, I highly recommend a trip to Pinto Art Museum if your heading to Antipolo.
DeleteI've heard about this museum from friends, and we'd love to go there next time. Thanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteNice place to spend a day. I am glad I was able to be of help.
DeleteI understand why you found it hard to choose which pictures to post! That place looks so lovely -- the pieces are truly masterpieces.
