The 12 finalists in the Ateneo Art Awards were artists below the age of 36. They are Renato Barja Jr., Frank Callaghan, Olivia D'aboville, Kawayan de Guia, Bembol dela Cruz, Nona Garcia, Sam Kiyoumarsi, Tatong Recheta Torres, Maria Taniguchi, Rodel Tapaya, MM Yu and Maria Jeona Zoleta.

The Ateneo Art Awards was established in 2004 in honor of founding benefactor Fernando Zobel de Ayala, an avid supporter of young Filipino visual artists.
This year's awards, themed "Anatomy of Autonomy," made participants dissect and survey artistic thought in the contemporary Philippine art scene.
