SUMMARY:Unfolding (언폴딩) Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Unfolding (언폴딩)\nInhwan Oh and Kyungmook Kim\nPreview on 14 December 2024\, on view until 22 February 2025\n1/F Galleries\nUP Vargas Museum\n\nThe UP Vargas Museum\, together with the Ministry of Culture\, Sports\, and Tourism of the Republic of Korea\, the Korea Arts Management Service\, and the Fund for Korean Art Abroad\, presents the exhibition of works by artists Inhwan Oh and Kyungmook Kim organized by Dominic Mangila. Unfolding (언폴딩) considers the experiences of two artists who embody othered identities in a society largely devoted to masculine ideals. Inhwan Oh and Kyungmook Kim unpack vignettes of life in South Korea as members of the LGBTQIA+ community in film and video works\, and through art that engages labor and marks processes.\n\nThrough them\, they summon the worlds of prisons and places of incarceration juxtaposed with spaces of freedom and gaiety– to discover and mark a social identity that refuses to settle with the laws and sanctions of a patriarchal nation.\n\nUnfolding (언폴딩) will be on view at the 1/F Galleries of the UP Vargas Museum starting 14 December 2024. Write to vargasmuseum@up.edu.ph for details and related information. The museum is located inside the University of the Philippines Diliman Campus and is open from Tuesdays to Saturdays except holidays\, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.\n\nFor updates on events\, exhibitions\, and advisories check our socials on Facebook\, Instagram\, or Twitter @upvargasmuseum.\n\n__________________________\nAbout the artist\n\nInhwan Oh\n\nInhwan Oh (b. 1965) is Associate Professor at the Department of Painting of the College of Fine Arts at Seoul National University. His participatory works and site-specific projects contextualize a particular space and time and seek to dismantle the cultural codes  formed in the relationship between the identities of individuals and groups within a patriarchal society.

He was a recipient of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art and SBS Foundation’s Korea Artist Prize in 2015.\nKyungmook Kim\nKyungmook Kim’s (b. 1985) video art\, documentary\, and narrative films expand the form of cinema by exploring the precarity of the marginalized such as homosexuals\, transsexuals\, sex workers\, and North Korean defectors. He made his directorial debut with Me and Doll-playing in 2004. Some of his other notable films include his Things Trilogy (2005-2014)\, A Cheonggyecheon Dog (2008)\, and Grace Period (2015).

MARIA LUISA S. ACU\nVice Dean\, St. Luke’s Medical Center – College of Medicine\n\n———————————————————–\n\nWebinar #225\nFebruary 7\, 2025 (Friday)\, 12:00 noon\nRepeat Caesarean ba Kaagad?\nWhen to Do Vaginal Birth After Caesarean Section\n\nThe landscape of obstetric care has evolved significantly\, with vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) emerging as a viable and often preferred option for many women. While cesarean sections remain a necessary and life-saving procedure in certain circumstances\, the increasing recognition of the benefits associated with vaginal delivery has prompted a renewed focus on VBAC as a safe and effective alternative for eligible candidates. In this week’s episode\, we will discuss the critical aspects of and best practices related to VBAC.\n\nWe will explore the historical context of VBAC\, tracing its evolution from initial concerns regarding uterine rupture to the present day\, where robust research and refined clinical protocols have established its safety and efficacy. We will examine the selection criteria for VBAC candidacy\, highlighting the factors that contribute to successful outcomes and identifying those situations where VBAC may not be advisable. Our speakers will present a thorough review of the risks and benefits associated with both VBAC and elective repeat cesarean section (ERCS). This comparative analysis will include a discussion of maternal morbidity and mortality\, neonatal outcomes\, and long-term implications for future pregnancies. In addition\, we will address the practical aspects of managing labor and delivery in VBAC candidates. This will encompass a review of intrapartum monitoring techniques\, strategies for promoting spontaneous labor\, and the appropriate use of interventions when necessary.\n\nOur main presenter is Dr. Menefrida S. Reyes\, who is a senior consultant from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the St. Luke’s Medical Center – Quezon City. She is also a former Chair of the Philippine Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Our reactor is Dr. Maria Luisa S. Acu\, who serves as Vice Dean at the St. Luke’s Medical Center – College of Medicine.\n\nJoin us as we discuss the importance of patient education and shared decision-making for anyone seeking to understand the options available for childbirth after a prior cesarean.\n\nTogether\, we can stop preventable deaths.
