Artist(s): Carlo MAGNO, Dominic RUBIO
Date: 19 Jun - 10 Jul 2010
A jointed collaboration of two established artists from the Philippines. One captured the nostalgia and romanticism of these periods while giving them a modern sensibility and whimsical appeal. One works with a palette knife and sand to create shapes and textures, a composition emerges which explores the total canvas area. Carlo Magno indulges in all shades of blue.
Rubio’s works are inspired by the Philippines during the latter part of the Spanish and then the early American colonial period. Carlo was a former realist artist who turned to abstract art for the love of freedom of expression.
