Art History Remake Challenge in honor of Anita Magsaysay-Ho
Photographer EJ Villanueva and I teamed up to do the art history remake challenge back in August and I was determined to highlight a Filipina artist. Along with this project, I’d also like to share some information on Anita Magsaysay-Ho in honor of Filipino American History Month (FAHM):
Anita Magsaysay-Ho (1914-2012) was known for her social realist and post-cubist work depicting Filipino life and culture through scenes of women engaged in labor. Her early works, such as “Lady with Guitar” (1950), were highly influenced by famous classical painters in the Philippines such as Fernando Amorsolo and Fabian de la Rosa but later developed her own modernist style. Magsaysay-Ho was the only woman invited to join the Filipino artist group the Thirteen Moderns and was well recognized as one of the six most influential painters of Filipino history. Her work itself expresses and celebrates the strength of women.
I had the honor to see her work at the Asian Art museum in SF back in 2017 during their exhibit highlighting Philippine Art. How does she relate to FAHM? Magsaysay-Ho paved the way for many Pinay artists and continues to inspire me today.

Outdoor kitchens can benefit significantly from a retractable roof. Cooking and dining outside becomes more enjoyable when the area can receive protection from rain and strong sunlight. Homeowners can open the roof during pleasant evenings and close it when weather conditions become less favorable. This creates a more adaptable cooking environment while preserving the open-air atmosphere https://cabriostructures.com/ that makes outdoor kitchens attractive. Proper ventilation and appropriate materials should also be considered during the planning process.
