‘Ars Eboris Sacri’ at UST Museum

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - The UST Museum presents a rare and fascinating collection of sacred images that are made of ivory in “Ars Eboris Sacri (Art of Sacred Ivory): Ivory and Controversy,” which opens on July 18, 10 a.m. at the Main Gallery, UST Museum, España, Manila. The show, which coincides with the 690th year of the cannonization of St. Thomas Aquinas, runs until Sept. 28.

Taking a stand against elephant poaching and the collecting and commissioning of new art from ivory, the UST Museum seeks to educate the public about existing sacred art and the context of the cultural heritage of the church.

For details, call 781-1815 or 786-1611 local 8269.
