Pacita Abad: The Woman Who Painted The World

Pacita Abad: The Woman Who Painted The World is going to print in the next few weeks - we hope that you could support this title given that Pacita's artworks are in the National Gallery & Singapore Art Museum's collection. This book is particularly special as the life story of a female artist of colour. Please find the synopsis below and cover attached:

Young Pacita's life took a turn when she found herself immersed in the bohemian spirit of sunny San Francisco. She spent her life travelling the world, spending time with marginalised communities, and drawing attention to socio-political issues through her art.

From traversing the highlands of Papua New Guinea to visiting refugee camps in Bangladesh to experiencing the rich cultures of Southeast Asia, this book tells the inspiring story of Filipino artist Pacita Abad - the woman who painted the world.
