Ateneo Art Gallery

The Ateneo Art Gallery is the first museum of modern art at the Ateneo de Manila University. It serves as the university's community and general public's art resource. 
It holds over 500 artworks, including paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculptures, and posters. It is renowned for having the most comprehensive work collections by social realists from the 1970s and 80s. Contemporary artists represented include José Tence Ruiz, Edgar Talusan Fernández, Antipas Delotavo, Julie Lluch, Anna Fer, Impy Pilapil, Imelda Cajipe-Endaya, Mark Justiniani, Brenda Fajardo, and Alfredo Esquillo.

The Gallery is widely recognized as being the original museum for Philippine modern art. It was founded in 1960 by Fernando Zbel, who left his extensive collection of Filipino works to the Ateneo. Over the years other artists and philanthropists followed Zobel's lead, filling the gaps. The collection covers every Philippine postwar art movement, from abstract expressionism and neo-realism to the current post-modern hybrid tendencies. The Ateneo Art Gallery now has a new location in the Arts Wing.

It will feature more of the permanent collection on the second and upper floors, as well as different themes. Third-floor galleries can be used for experimental and contemporary art projects, such as the Ateneo Art Awards. They also provide space for historical and survey exhibitions. Ben Chan ArtSuite is a multipurpose space that can be used for education and public programs like workshops, lectures and seminars.

Vicente Manansala and Fernando Z bel are among the artists represented. Upper Ground Floor Mr. Ching Tan Gallery and Mr. Mrs.
