We need to recognize that the galleries and the objects of art form only the container, the content of which is constituted by the visitors... (Bataille, 1971: 239)

Bataille, G. (1971) ‘Musée’, in Oeuvres Complètes, vol. 1. Paris: Gallimard

Plataporma is a process-based arts and cultural research collective geared towards investigating notions of spectatorship and the relationship between culture and technology with different public spheres.

Extensions openly hopes to evoke notions of slippery territoriality, of spatial protrusions in a variety of aspects—altitude, frequency, depth, and breadth. As this exhibition closes out Lopez Museum’s 50th anniversary year, it plays at a sobering self-injunction to intently think upon how this institution attempts to breach fences and reach its variously defined publics.

In acknowledging its own implication in the propelling of inclusionary and exclusionary mechanisms of institutions engaging with the contested construct of culture, LMM assembled three collaborative formations (Pilipinas Street Plan, Plataporma, and Rock Ed Philippines) and the Bicol-Manila shuttling artist, Maya Munoz. Opening up the spaces and object/image trove of the museum and library for their potential intervention (by way of painting, sound and video, photography, as well as installation) was a calculated bid to have them come alongside our own looking back and thrusting forward vis-a-vis the multifaceted and hopefully even more constructively interdisciplinary direction that LMM intends to increasingly apply itself to.
