Curator Marian Pastor Roces on building back our culture | Part 1
Description
I make museums, that's how Marian Pastor Roces often matter-of-factly describes her work. An art and museum curator for almost 50 years, Roces considers museums an essential part of understanding a culture and reversing the harmful misconceptions that have dragged Philippine society down. "Curation is about dealing with moral questions," she says.
She explains to Howie Severino why she thinks Filipinos cannot solve large social problems and why we have confused notions about our identity, including the way the word "indigenous" can exclude and discriminate as much as it affirms.
