NOTABLE

FILIPINO ARTIST
Medalla was born in Manila,
the Philippines, in 1942. At the age
of 12 he was admitted at Columbia
University in New York upon the
recommendation of American
poet Mark van Doren, and he
studied ancient Greek drama
with Moses Hadas, modern drama
with Eric Bentley, modern literature
with Lionel Trilling, modern
philosophy with John Randall and
attended the poetry workshops
of Léonie Adams.
Bose often used indigenous
SANTIAGO BOSE media in his work, ranging
from bamboo and volcanic
ash, to the cast-offs and
debris (found objects, bottles,
"trash"). His assemblages
communicated a strong sense
of folk consciousness and
religiosity, and the strength of
traditional cultures in a
culture inundated with
foreign cultural influences.
Bose worked toward raising an awareness of
cultural concerns in the Philippines. After
studying at the College of Fine Arts at the
University of the Philippines between 1967 and
1972, Bose continued his studies in the United
States, at the West 17th Print Workshop in New
York City.
He returned to Baguio in 1986 and began his
explorations into the effects of colonialism on the
Philippine national identity. In particular, Bose
focused on the resilience of indigenous cultures,
like that of his home region of the Cordilleras.
