Filipino collective Kwatro-Kantos sets up shop at 21 Grand for a monthlong tagay — a ritual toast over a round of drinks — but this time the ceremony is fueled by art rather than alcohol. The Pinoy collective explores the collision of American capitalism and Filipino history, peppering its work with references to both cultures. King Kong echoes in the imagery of the bulul, a primitive totem. Disney cartoons, Catholic iconography, Spanish conquistadores, and graffiti mingle in a biting commentary on American pop culture.
