Pa(ng)labas: Architecture + Cinema : Projection of Filipino Space in Film

This book is fully illustrated. PA(ng)LABAS) is doubly coded to encompass both the concepts of projected moving image (palabas) and the exteriority or architecture (panglabas). Both posit a sense of place, a sense of locus. The collection of images showcased in this compendium dramatizes the juxtaposition of architecture and the imaginary environment of the cinema, and at the same time, probes the transformation of Filipino space, architecture, and urban landscape as visualized and mediated through the cinematic lens.
