₱58,000.00
Ang Kiukok’s proclivity to portray his usual subjects in various compositions and themes is present in the still life, Red Table (1970). The lines in his paintings emphasize geometric forms that overlap with each other that fill up the canvas space and limit the perspective. The colors are rudimentary, and in this painting, it is limited to red, orange, white, and black. The effect reinforces the linear framework. This transforms the table into a distorted and fragmented image, reflecting Kiukok’s worldview full of angst and inner turmoil.

In Jose Joya’s gestural works from the1960s, paint was applied intuitively and spontaneously. The rough surface textures were achieved by using broad brush strokes using brushes or spatulas or directly applied from the tube onto the canvas. The impasto finish mixed with sand over layers of primer, creates a sensual experience. Joya masters a delicate balance between control and spontaneity, translating into a visual language that holds unique to his body of work.
Spanish-born painter Juvenal Sansò grew up and studied in Manila. His surreal landscapes transport the viewer to a strange, desolate place that feels familiar but not quite–like hazy memories from another life. Icaro y los Papalotes (1970) translates to “Icarus and the Kites.” The rubble stones on the foreground of the painting is stylistically similar to Sansò’s more popular works such as the “Brittany” and “Barong-barong” series. A small form of a man on the upper right of the painting, suggesting the mythological figure, Icarus, flying above a desolate landscape. It symbolizes the insistence of hope and resilience of man against natural forces.
Federico Aguilar Alcuaz’s mixed media painting in the CCP 21AM Collection exhibits the artist’s unique stylistic approach. He embellishes his work with a combination of pure linear forms and abstract shapes with strong figurative allusions. A highly personal style that is neither geometric nor gestural but one that is driven by a play on unconscious impulses. Through his painterly brushwork, dramatic tonal contrasts, textural motifs, and dynamic shapes, Aguilar Alcuaz’s abstract compositions take on a strong compelling presence that marks his intense and fierce expression for art.
The naked torsos of a man and woman are painted in abstract, geometric forms blending into the space of Cesar Legaspi’s Man and Woman (1975). As Legaspi moved closer to abstraction, the objective reality of his subject remained as a persistent undercurrent in his abstract images. The figures are launched into rhythm and movement moving away from the stasis.
