SIBOL 2007 The Cultural Center of the Philippines mounts "Sibol 2007" on April 22, 2007, with the theme, "Culture for Life," emphasizing the role of artists and the cultural sector in realizing the International Earth Day theme of "Stewardship in Action." "Sibol 2007" will begin at 7 a.m. with all employees dispersed throughout the Complex grounds in a cleanup operation, which is a symbolic gesture of environmental stewardship on a personal level. This will be followed by a shared breakfast with families at the CCP front lawn and an opening program, directed by Ariel Yonzon, featuring Ballet Philippines artists and children in an interactive dance to unveil an outdoor installation art project by the renowned environmental artist, Junyee. Entitled "Angud," Junyee's art project will consist of some three thousand pieces of Angud, which is the end part of tree trunks discarded during illegal logging operations. These pieces represent the denudation of our forests that, in turn, cause mudslides and land erosion, bringing tragic consequences. Spread throughout the front lawn's two-hectare open ground, the installation alludes to a graveyard of mute witnesses to a continuing crime against nature. Sibol 2007 continues from 10 am to 12 noon with a forum on the theme, "Culture for Life," organized by the CCP Artistic Director, Nanding Josef, with Haribon as convener. This will involve movers and shakers of the environment from the private and government sectors sharing their success stories and plans for future efforts. Complementing this forum is an exhibition of landscape architect Paolo Alcazaren's designs for the CCP Liwasang Kalikasan project launched last year. Painters and visual artists shall hold on-the-spot painting sessions along the promenade area facing Manila Bay. Organized by Winner Foundation to draw in onlookers and passersby, this event will culminate in an exhibit of finished paintings at the CCP Little Theatre Lobby, adjacent to the audiovisual room where a screening of the film, "An Inconvenient Truth," is hosted by the CCP Media Arts Division. A portion from the sale of the paintings shall be donated to the CCP Liwasang Kalikasan. "*Sibol 2007" will culminate in the evening with a light and sound show, highlighting the urgent need to conserve and protect the environment. This event shall be held at the CCP front area which includes the lawn, the ramp, the fountain lagoon, and the façade, all in all, serving as stage and backdrop for a spectacular display of visual projections, a 20-minute art film on the environment, musical numbers and acrobatic performances directed by Chris Millado, with the participation of artists and the CCP resident companies. This event is envisioned to attract crowds and mass media coverage to spread the environmental message on a wider scale. See you at the CCP on April 22!*
