What is 98b?
98b is an art space in Escolta, Manila. The only in that area I think. It is, I think, started by Mark Salvatus with a lot of friends.
What's great about 98b is the community. All kinds of artistic fellow go there, from contemporary artists, to photographers, to illustrators, to curators, to writers, designers, etc.
And the events. 98b organizes fun events such as the future market, which is like a mini art fair tiyangge; the behance portfolio review which was held last november; art talks from local and foreign artists. which are really, really good.
There is also a vast library of books, magazines, catalogues, brochures about art from around the Philippines and beyond.
98b also hosts art residencies. They have done they first recently: The Yokohamanila.
