The Year of the Fire Horse is rare — as it happens once every 60 years. This fiery energy of the Horse is synonymous with freedom, rapid breakthroughs and a courage to gallop away from stagnant patterns. 2026 sets the stage where progress happens at a speed, favoring those who take bold, decisive actions.
This “wildfire” spirit finds its perfect physical outlet in the current ALT ART 2026 — the fourth and most ambitious edition of the Philippine contemporary art fair. Stunning and outstanding works of both notable and emerging artists namely Leonardo Aguinaldo for Galleria Duemila, Noli Coronado Jr. and Dante Dizon for the Drawing Room, Jel Suarez for BLANC, Gene delos reyes and Paolo Torres for Vinyl and Vinyl celebrate the coming of the Horse. The show was a fusion of horsepower meeting contemporary art.
