I. History

A gallery of art never stands on its own. Its beginnings are often connected to its

owner and his background. The motives and thrusts by which it was created and

incorporated are many a time hinged on the philosophy that guides it.

Having said that, here is a short background on the owners, Noli and Agnes

Romero, a husband and wife team that has managed and operated Renaissance

since its opening in 2003. Notwithstanding the ten short years that is has

been operating in SM Megamall, one of the best established venues for art in

the country, the Romeros are not at all novices in their craft. Noli is an artist

by calling and a collector and investment man by career. Agnes is a pottery

enthusiast and a former jeweler of 17 years. They have been investors in stocks,

commodities, gold, diamonds and art at some point in their early careers. They

have collected art for more than 24 years and have been co-incorporators of 3

other galleries since the 1990’s – namely: Ad Infinitum Gallery, Studio 241 and

Gallery 101. After divesting from these past galleries, the invitation to establish

Renaissance in 2003 came from SM Megamall and it was not at all a hard

decision to make.

II. Philosophies (Motives, Thrusts and Policies)

The Philosophy that motivates and moves the gallery forward is basically to help

artists by providing a venue for their artworks so that the viewing public may see art

in the best light. Thereby, the gallery, the artist, the viewers and collectors will have

a venue for art appreciation and art exchange.

Here are some of the Renaissance Art Gallery’s Thrusts and Policies:

1. To provide a venue for new artists to exhibit their work

2. To provide art management to artists

3. To discover and nurture new talents

4. To provide brokering service for artists and collectors

5. To purchase and invest in art from time to time when the opportunity arises

6. To assist collectors and institutions in appraising their art collection

7. To ascertain that artists receive the right compensation for their labors

8. To encourage artists to excel in their craft by joining competitions

9. To provide a wide selection for art enthusiasts, new homeowners, interior

10. To assure clients of quality artwork through our strict art selection process

designers and corporate clients

III. Exhibits, Projects and other Activities

Renaissance Art Gallery is proud to say that it has mounted shows here and

abroad and has been a participant in Manila Art - an international art fair under

the auspices of the National Commission on Culture and Arts (NCCA) and the

Association of art galleries called Bonafide Art Galleries Org (BAGO) of which

Renaissance Art Gallery is a founding member.

Aside from the monthly shows at our own gallery walls and floor, some of the major

shows the gallery has mounted are solo shows and group shows in the Art Center of

Megamall. Major artistic shows for the past ten years have graced the walls of the

big Art Center of SM Megamall.

We have also partnered with various groups that support worthy causes. One

such example was a benefit project, held in cooperation with Levi’s, which aimed

to raise funds for the plight of young and abused children of the Bantay Bata 163

Foundation.

The gallery has also mounted shows abroad, mainly in New York over a period of 2

years. We were able to bring our own selection of artists to some of our shows held

there. Our shows have also been the springboard for shows brought to Europe and

other Asian countries

We also encourage our roster of artists to join competitions and we are proud of

our artists who have garnered many major awards over the past several years.
