Arturo Luz is a Philippine National Artist. A printmaker, sculptor, designer and art administrator, he describes his works as semi-representational, semi-abstracted. His masterpieces include minimalist, geometric abstracts - linear art and his series on street musicians, vendors, cyclists and carnival performers. He also sculpted using wood, concrete and metal. Luz was a member of the Neo-Realists and the Thirteen Moderns, a group of modern artists established in 1938 and led by Victorio C. Edades.
