Mga Kuwento Ni Lola Basyang: Filipino Stories For Children

In the City Event

The exhibition surveys the history of Severino Reyes’s Mga Kwento ni Lola Basyang from its initial production to its iterations in various media: illustrated book, dance, television, and cinema.

Stories for children form an important part of the Philippine literary tradition. And as this particular example demonstrates, they have belonged to the collective imagination of the public culture.

The exhibition will feature the various articulations of the story in books, visual culture, and the mass media.
