The Museum of Modern Filipino Art (MoMFA) begins with a dream and the land on which to build it. To stand proudly on historic Mount Samat in Bataan, its goal is to showcase the best of modern and contemporary Filipino art and to instill in future generations an abiding love and pride in their cultural heritage. Aside from the structure that will preserve and display the art collections, activities such as exhibits, competitions and workshops are being designed for the MoMFA dream to come to fruition. By doing all this, we acknowledge with gratitude that man’s innermost aspirations and his very ability to create art emanates from the Divine Creator Himself.

Featured Artists

Because MoMFA aims to promote both Philippine art and the supremely-gifted Filipino artist as among the best in the world, we are pleased to feature in this section both the artistic accomplishments and some personal insights into the people behind the artworks. Just as the skill and style of every artist is distinct, the story of each artist is unique and unlike any other.
