There are also a lot of books at the fair. Archivo 1984, which collects Philippine art and memorabilia, set up a cozy reading nook with plenty of art books to read. Next door, Vibal Group has novels and art books for sale.
On the seventh floor, ISTORYA STUDIOS, INC. introduced its newest publications authored and illustrated by celebrated Filipino artists. These include GRADE 3 by Thirteen Artists Awardee Doktor Karayom. It’s about grade school memories, told through the eyes of the artist, known for his red art pieces that reference the human anatomy.
The second is mga walang pangalan pero andyan (those without names but are there) by Archie Oclos. Oclos is known for large-scale public murals that deal with social-political themes, like the plight of farmers and indigenous people. Like Doktor Karayom, he is also a Thirteen Artists awardee.
