On June 5, 2025, Globe and Provenance Art Gallery hosted a special art exhibition and silent auction at Rockwell’s Power Plant Mall. In support of the Hapag Movement, a Globe-led project that tackles involuntary hunger in the Philippines, the event brought together leaders from the fields of art, advocacy, and society.

Celebrated Filipino artists Andres Barrioquinto, Jayson Cortez, Max Balatbat, Martin Honasan, Jason Montinola, and Raffy Napay were among those showcasing their paintings at the special event.

Central to the evening was the silent auction, which ran until June 7, with 50% of all sales proceeds dedicated to the Hapag Movement, a Globe initiative together with partners to fight involuntary hunger by providing sustainable feeding and livelihood training to vulnerable families. The other half directly supported the participating artists—underscoring Globe’s dual commitment to social impact and the local creative economy.

Andres Barrioquinto, a Filipino visual artist, created the auctioned artwork. Barrioquinto is renowned for his surreal and hyperrealistic portraits, which fuse elements of nature, pop culture, and Asian aesthetics.  Drawing inspiration from Japanese ukiyo-e and Baroque art, he constructs intricate, layered pieces using oil and acrylic on canvas. Barrioquinto’s contributions to art have been recognized including the CCP’s Thirteen Artists Award, and his works are featured in prominent collections throughout Asia.

“This is more than a showcase of art—it is a statement of purpose,” said Roche Vandenberghe, Globe Chief Marketing Officer. “We are deeply grateful to our customers and partners who helped transform an evening of cultural appreciation into meaningful support for communities experiencing hunger.”

Guests enjoyed a private viewing ahead of the exhibit’s public opening, alongside a curator talk by Stephanie Frondoso, light fare by Cibo, and personalized Globe giveaways.

The public can still view the display until August 2025.

This partnership is a component of Globe’s continuous endeavors to provide its clients with meaningful, human-centered experiences while furthering its fundamental beliefs via the Hapag Movement.
