Visayas Islands Visual Artists Exhibit and Conference (VIVA-ExCon) hold their
series of activities in Dumaguete City. It also initiates Art Workshops for children and adults during summer and for every opportunity if afforded by time.
The Gallery offers a Residency Program on Terra Cotta to artists that show high interest in the medium. The Residency is held every two year with the main objective of meeting one requirement of the Terra Cotta Biennial, that is to produce well-meaning terra cotta works for the Special Exhibition, one of the relevant features of the Biennial. The Residency is also a vital step for the Galleryâs interest on the resulting application of clay as a medium on the following considerations: the artistâs contemporary pursuit in art making, art form, artistic motivation(s), and discourses that come with every attempt of using the medium.
One of the objectives of the Gallery at present is to continue its studies on the different clay types that can be found in the island of Negros, and on related matters that might be of profound relevance to the continuity of the artistâs interest in exploring the medium and the tradition of the potter.
Although the Gallery gives preference to project related art exhibition (s), it
accepts proposals for art exhibitions on any medium from individual artist or group of artists whose aims or offers are good.
