The Present
In 1976, Napoleon V. Abueva,
then 46, was the youngest
Filipino to become a National
Artist. Known as the Father of
Modern Philippine Sculpture, he is
a master in both academic
representational style and modern
abstract. His works have been
executed using almost all kinds of
materials, including hard wood
like molave, acacia, langka wood,
ipil, kamagong, palm wood and
bamboo, adobe, metal, stainless
steel, cement, marble, bronze,
iron, alabaster, coral, and brass.
He even combines different
materials, like wood with metal
and stone. Napoleon Abueva

Artists to Know
Oscar Villamiel (1953-present)
Born in Caloocan City, Manila, Villamiel is a multimedia artist known for his
large-scale installations consisting of objects found in local communities. His art
career may have started later in life, but his installations have enthralled
audiences for the past decade. He initially worked as a set designer for
television, a leather bag craftsman and a successful t-shirt company
entrepreneur before holding his first solo exhibition in 2006.
He once filled a room with thousands of bullhorns in his show Mga Damong
Ligaw (‘Wild Weeds’) in 2014, at the Light and Space Contemporary in
Fairview, Manila. The bullhorn installation was made to look like a terrain of
weeds when viewed at a certain angle. Villamiel’s work reflects the current
socio-political situation in the country, highlighting elements of poverty,
consumerism, and religion. His massive installation Payatas, which features
thousands of doll heads, was chosen to represent the Philippines in the
Singapore Biennale exhibition in 2013. It took him two-and-a-half years to finish
this work.
Ernest Concepcion (1977-present)
Concepcion is a studio artist whose work experiments with intense emotion,
deconstructing images in his paintings, sculptures, and installations. He creates art
like recording a music album, where each painting is from a series of nine.
Concepcion describes it as producing an old favorite, a classic, sleeper hit and one
piece he doesn’t really like but keeps coming back to.
Currently based in Manila, he has become known for his paintings that
hold multiple layers, using different mediums to expose new forms.
Pasilan’s work has been represented by the Drawing Room of Manila,
Artinformal Gallery, and West Gallery. A notable collaboration with Raffy
Napay was featured in Art Fair Philippines in 2017.
In 2011, he initiated the Ax(iS) Art Project, promoting the local artist community
in the chilly hill station of Baguio and the Cordilleras. Kawayan has held
numerous solo exhibitions in the Philippines and abroad. He was a guest
curator for the Singapore Biennale in 2013.
Ronald Ventura (1973-present)
Ventura is a contemporary artist from Manila, with a Bachelor’s degree of Fine
Arts in Painting from the University of Santo Tomas. He initially taught in the
same school after graduating but found his true calling as a visual artist after
his first solo exhibition at the Drawing Room in Makati in 2000. Ventura’s work
is known to consist of multiple layers, using imagery that focuses on the
human form. His paintings are a dramatic union of comic sketches, reality, and
graffiti. He draws inspiration from Asian mythology, Catholicism, science fiction
and comic book characters. He is known to have the highest selling work in
the history of the Southeast Asian art market: his painting Grayground sold for
a whopping $1.1 million USD at an auction in Sotheby’s Hong Kong.
Dex Fernandez (1984-present)
Another Caloocan native, Dexter practices a variety of mediums ranging from
painting to street art and animation. He most recently participated in art
residency programs in Lir Art Space, Yogyakarta, Indonesia (2013), Asian
Cultural Council in New York, Fine Arts Work Center, Massachusetts (2015), and
Ongoing Art Center, Tokyo (2016).
His work is influenced by pop culture, graffiti, children’s drawings, and tattoos –
creating pieces that challenge people’s views on fine art. He is known locally for
his on-going series of Garapata street art (the Tagalog word for ‘tick’), filling
public spaces with the notion of ‘infecting’ the city with his art.

PANORAMIC
PHOTOGRAPHY
A panorama — or panoramic
photo — is usually made by
stitching several pictures taken
with the same camera into
one.
Smoke art
photography can be
a challenging, yet
extremely rewarding
technique. Smoke
trails create
mysterious and
captivating images
that are intriguing,
fascinating, and fun
to capture.
• Water drop
photography freezes the action of
a drop of water, creating
interesting and artistic images.
With water drop photography, you
will want a small aperture,
something like f/11 or f/14, to keep
the surface of the water in focus.
Use a flash, or a fast shutter speed
such as 1/160 or faster to freeze
the action.
