Filipino American Artist Directory is a participatory project by St. Louis-based artist Janna Añonuevo Langholz to connect and make visible the broad community of visual artists of Filipino heritage living and working in the United States. It aims to increase the recognition of Filipino American artists through an online resource and series of publications, as well as group events, exhibitions, commissioned works, and collaborations with other artists and organizations.
Our office is located in St. Louis at the former site of the Philippine Village at the 1904 World’s Fair; a 40-acre exhibition of 1,200 Filipinos that largely (mis)shaped American perception of the Philippines shortly after it became a US territory. The directory reclaims the site and addresses its history by compiling a list of 1,200 artists actively exhibiting their work around the country, as opposed to being exhibited, and aims to culminate in a series of events and exhibitions in 202X. The project was founded in 2015, first inspired by the book The Decolonized Eye: Filipino American Art and Performance by Sarita Echavez See.
The directory has exhibited at Flood Plain in St. Louis and participated in the Filipino American International Book Festival in San Francisco, Pilipinx American Library Artist Retreat at Asian Art Museum, Guerrilla Alliance Night Market in St. Louis, and the Chicago Art Book Fair. It has been featured on All The Art, Inquirer.net, the Bad At Sports podcast, World Literature Today, and The FilAm. The directory publication is included in the Los Angeles Contemporary Archive and is a member of Common Field.
