00:00The Art Exhibit, Opera Art, was launched to help those who can't afford an opera because of lack of money.
00:09This exhibit is a project of the Philippine College of Surgeons.
00:13Here's the first news, Niko Wahe.
00:18Do you like works such as paintings or sculptures?
00:23Do you also like to help those in need?
00:27What if your love for masterpieces will not only end in love, but will also help our fellow countrymen?
00:36That's what the Philippine College of Surgeons, or PCS, wants to happen.
00:40They made an Art Exhibit called Opera Art at Pinto Art Museum in Antipolo City.
00:46Through selling works of some artists who participated in the exhibit,
00:51PCS will help Filipinos who can't afford an opera because of their conditions.
00:56Under that is their Surgery for Underserved Regions and for Education.
01:01We have a certain percentage of their artworks that will go to the Surgical Commission.
01:10We will use this to finance and sustain our surgical missions.
01:17Last year, they received a lot of money from their works.
01:22That's why they were able to carry out their surgical missions in Sulu, Mindoro, Sorosagon, and Pangasinan.
01:27Our target is the unmet surgeries in underserved regions.
01:34This is the goal of the Philippine College of Surgeons.
01:39This is a way for us to give relief to those in need of surgery,
01:49especially for life-changing operations.
01:53One of their works is the work of Dr. Michael Dennis de la Paz.
01:59He calls this an endoscopic painting.
02:02Medicine is not science, but art.
02:06We don't just learn if we don't practice.
02:11As a surgeon, I shouldn't use my hands.
02:15I should have a woman's hand.
02:19Her movements should be fine.
02:23That's why we call fine arts or painting an important training.
02:29For Veronica, opera is the focus of her art.
02:33Opera as music and opera as medicine.
02:37I used to play a violin, and then I used my old violin.
02:42Violin is an opera music.
02:44Most of my clients are doctors, so all of their patients have different kinds of cases.
02:50So I use oil pastel.
02:52Oil pastel is like a peephole.
02:55Different cases of their diseases.
02:58You can see and buy the works of the Opera Art Exhibit at the Pinto Art Museum until July 14.
03:04We're very happy at the Pinto Art Museum together with our artists
03:09to be able to help the doctors fund this particular project.
03:14Art and medicine actually are not of different sides.
03:20They're actually connected.
03:22This is the first news for GMA Integrated News.
03:34This is GMA Pinoy TV at www.gmanews.tv.
