In Praise of the Idyllic 26


Cesar Buenaventura Cesar Buenaventura (1922 - 1983)
Market Scene
signed and dated 1979 (lower right)
A master of both landscape and portraiture, Cesar Buenaventura emerged oil on canvas
as the most well-known and celebrated of the Mabini artists. A life-long 22” x 33” (56 cm x 84 cm)
patron of the arts, he devoted his life to his practice, painting classic Philippine
iconography, from landscapes and seascapes to Filipinos either at work or play. P 30,000

Various moods and seasons are rendered through his trademark palette knife
and brushes, through his impressive shades and hues. His sceneries of clouds
and waves, of fields and vegetation, are both ravishingly elegant yet down-
to-earth. His figures include farmers planting rice, vendors in market places, 19
fishermen with their nets, and Filipinos into cockfighting. Buenaventura would Cesar Buenaventura (1922 - 1983)
also often render his figures in crouched and unobtrusive ways, effectively Farm Life
creating an aura of mysteriousness and a sufficiently disinterested sense of signed and dated 1965 (lower right)
sympathy. These pieces from the great artist are timeless testaments to his oil on canvas
20” x 35” (51 cm x 89 cm)
versatility, merging or alternating between representational, impressionistic,
and expressionistic techniques. P 30,000

O
ne of the most prominent modernist painters, Lydia Velasco
had her formal training in the arts from the University of
Santo Tomas where she obtained a degree in Fine Arts 89
major in Advertising. She worked as an artist for Philprom, an Lydia Velasco (b. 1948)
advertising agency, for more than a decade. In 1988, she left the field Nudes
of advertising and ventured into entrepreneurship as co-owner of signed and dated 2016 (lower left)
Lightmoves Photo/Design, Inc., becoming its art consultant. When the pastel on paper
company experienced stability, she returned to painting, becoming a 19” x 14 1/2” (48 cm x 37 cm)
core member of Mauro Malang Santos’ Saturday Group. It was during
P 20,000
this time when Velasco fully devoted herself to exploring her distinct
artistry and style.

Undoubtedly her favorite subject matter, Velasco’s oeuvre revolves


around women and their intrinsic strength, liberating them from
the shackles of a male-dominated society, at least on her canvases.
Despite this, she still manages to unveil the innate femininity of
Filipino women, as showcased in this piece titled Ladies at the Flower 85
Garden II. The three women are portrayed as imbued with sultriness Lydia Velasco (b. 1942)
Ladies at the Flower Garden II
juxtaposed with the traditional attributes of Filipino women i.e. their

innocence and natural charisma. The preponderance of green gives oil on canvas
a revitalized facet for Velasco’s women – inherently powerful yet 36” x 36” (91 cm x 91 cm)
overflowing with allure and refinement. Her polished employment of
strokes and hues has made her works highly-coveted by art collectors P 200,000

origami (paper cranes and boats), and other things to fill in the gap of
space in that part of the human face where the eyes, nose, and mouth
should be. Her paintings are featured this way not because she needed
to hide something. It is actually the opposite. Galon shared with a blog

Aside from being a master of landscapes, Fernando Amorsolo also lived


a prolific career as an acclaimed painter of innocent feminine charm.
Amorsolo has long been regarded as the greatest Filipino painter of
women, and the country lass is one of the national artist’s passionate
endeavors to produce a distinctive Filipino icon with which the people
could collectively identify. Employing his penchant for the Classical-
Romantic style, he strived to incorporate warm, luscious hues to the
pristine beauty of a youthful countrywoman. As a painter of peasants
and idyllic countryside living, Amorsolo remained a sharp observer in his
vivid renditions of high-spirited figures where romanticism and realism 630 631 632
come into play. It is highly discernible that his eye for detail – from the Maya Muñoz (b. 1972) Jigger Cruz (b. 1984) Martin Honasan (b. 1941)

713 Philippine art landscape. A self-taught sculptor, she immersed herself in art in
Solomon Saprid (1917 - 2003) 1976, a decade after obtaining her bachelor’s degree in Philosophy from the
Taurus University of Santo Tomas, and held her first solo art exhibit at Sining Kamalig
signed and dated 1979 (lower left) in 1977. A feminist sculptor, she helped in instituting the feminist organization
brass Katipunan ng Kababaihan para sa Kalayaan (KALAYAAN) along with fellow
9 1/2” x 4” x 5” (24 cm x 10 x 13 cm) women writers, activists, and intellectuals in 1983. In 1990, she was bestowed
by the Cultural Center of the Philippines with its prestigious Thirteen Artists
P 80,000 Award.

Lluch described her art as “highly personal.” She has a deep admiration for
Philippine indigenous clay, referring to it as a “sensuous and pleasurable”
feminine medium and one in which her art finds its optimal expression. For

Gabriel “Gabby” Barredo (1957 - 2020) He is known for his ability to produce sculptures that combine Modernism’s
Untitled aesthetic of the distorted figure with a classical allegorical approach to Filipino
23” x 16” x 8” (58 cm x 41 cm x 20 cm) virtues. In addition to creating arresting brass or bronze monuments, Castrillo
also produced small-scale sculptures in representational and abstract styles. He
P 30,000 simplifies reality into planes and occasionally augments them into a mass of
resonating shapes. According to him, this is his aesthetic - both a neo-realist
and a cubist propensity that “is essentially the resolution of the conflict between
representation and structure.” Castrillo received his CCP Thirteen Artists Award in
1970 and was considered as the heir to Guillermo Tolentino’s finesse in sculpting.

“All the books are of our own, personal interests,” said


Tats. There are books on antiquities as she and her husband
are antique collectors. Books on the performing arts and
films are present since Johnny and Tats have both worked
in the television industry. Also included are monographs on
architecture, biographies of artists, histories of places known
for art, and art commentaries, among others. According to
Tats, some of these books belonged to her husband’s parents,
especially the older ones. She disclosed: “We all had such a
hard time parting with them because all of us are bookworms.”
Luckily enough, the family entrusted a bountiful of their books
to León Gallery. The books are well-preserved since the family
library, which has floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall shelves, has a
dehumidifier on almost every corner and the shelves are filled
with silica gel packets to avoid mold and foxing on their most-
prized possessions.

The Refined Elegance of the Manila Aparador

S
ought after for their exquisite craftsmanship
and attention to detail, Manila Aparadors
are revered by collectors, aficionados, and
home-makers alike for their timeless aesthetic and
unmistakably Filipino sensibilities. Manila Aparador PROPERTY FROM A VERY DISTINGUISHED GENTLEMAN
is the name given to the aparadors of this type
that were constructed in Binondo, Manila during 1746
A Circa 1930’s Kamagong Aparador
the area’s artisanal furniture heyday. Compared to 77” x 48” x 21”
other aparadors, they were relatively more boxy and (196 cm x 122 cm x 21 cm)
prominently featured posts on their sides. Yet, what
P 150,000
truly sets them apart from the rest was the amount
of care and attention artisans and craftsmen placed
into each piece. Every piece was painstakingly and
meticulously crafted by hand. Though tools were used
in the shaping and carving process, no machinery or
special equipment was ever used, thus a single piece
would only take around months to even a few years
to complete. Manila Aparadors were also often only
produced by the most skilled craftsmen, given that
only true masters of the craft knew how to properly 1744
work with exquisite hardwoods. A 19th-Century Manila Aparador

Yet, the history behind these Manila Aparadors are


not the only things worth mentioning. Both pieces
are fashioned out of Narra and Kamagong, two
of the most sought after materials in locally-made
Filipino furniture. Known for its interlocking and
wavy grain structure, and its superb natural luster,
Narra has become synonymous with fine Filipino
craftsmanship. Narra also boasts an incredible
lifespan due to its weather and rot resistances which
are often considered equal to none. Kamagong on
the other hand is revered as the crème de la crème
of hardwoods. Famous for its unparalleled durability
and rich dark color, Kamagong is often only available
to the rich and powerful, given that not only is

Qing style furniture integrated many elements influenced by Western


culture and arts, such as Renaissance, Baroque, and Rococo. The Qing
Dynasty furniture emerged in the early Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1912) during
the reign of Emperor Kangxi, and developed in the reign of Emperor
Yongzheng and the subsequent two hundred years. By the late Qing
Dynasty, the Opium War changed the destiny of ancient China, and
deeply influenced the development of Qing style furniture. It blended
the characteristics of Western architecture and Western style furniture - a
perfect evidence of a special historical period.
