Pinto Art Museum

On top of the hills of Antipolo lies an inspiring contemporary art space made with such an obviously impressive visual artistry.

The ambience of the place, the architecture of the villa,  and the aura of the people feel so inspiring and so pure. It was, for me, a creative retreat.  

This arts sanctuary is located inside Grand Heights Subdivision, a quiet hillside subdivision in Antipolo, Rizal with a wide 1.2 hectare property. This Santorini-inspired dwelling place houses 7 modern and contemporary art galleries, an indigenous art museum, sculpture gardens, a chapel, 2 cafes, and not to mention, a private residence inside this welcoming art space. Such kind owner, I may say, for opening it to the public for arts appreciation.

I fell in love with the place to an extent that I want to only keep it for myself, but unluckily, it was not I who fell in love first. Everyone who has visited the place fell in love with it since its day of opening in 2010. Thus, writing about this fine discovery — for everyone to love (and visit) too.
