Galerie Y Featured Artists
Collection 1

angelo2a.jpg Angelo
The artist who comes from the woodcarving town of Paete, Laguna, demonstrates his dexterity with the chisel, and his conscientious efforts to draw attention to local bounty.  The mimetic rendition of the pictorial units comes close to duplicating their outside referents.
leonardo2a.gif Leonardo
Intimacy with some of the indigenous communities in the Philippines is manifested by the centrally located T'boli maiden.  A faithful visual document of a rich culture that forms part of the Asian period in Philippine cultural history.
dlc2a.gif De La Cruz
This minimural is an internalization of the mosaic of Philippine life approached from an a priori encounter with realities both concrete and abstgract.  The human figure's frontality and short of central positioning are a recognition of the Filipinos' strong sense of humanism regardless of whatever.
bandalan2a.jpg Bandalan
Flowers galore! Man's eye and hand, the artists's, of course, do nature one better: arrange the visuals to the demands of a one point perspective crowned by a lush tree.
balagtasa.jpg Balagtas
Life as a game is a game.  Or game as life is life.  This isw virtually the mindset of cockfight aficionados who find a parallel in their lives between the bravery of the gamecocks and their own bravery.  The gamecocks with heads up point towards this bravery.
baldemor2a.jpg Baldemor
Social space as an alienating element is closed in at the bottom where dwelling are all but juxtaposed with each other.  The upper half is relatively free of minutiae as a pictorial requisite for release or breathing space.  A declarative statement on the Filipinos' sense of space.
melencio2a.gif Melencio
Mansions of the megarich of old have consistently been the foci of the artist, manifested once more in this work.  There is a silent stoicism in this work and others of the same genre.
verano2a.gif Verano
Serial are the slopes of the flowers' bloom.  The reds and blues, in intertwining traingulars, within an understated tirangle in alternation of clear and blurred contours and sandlike texture.
dans2a.jpg Dans
Embossed designs called kalado in Filipino, is once more captured by the artist which is definitely her strongest contribution to contemporary Philippine art.  Two gumamela flowers accentuate the left-to-right diagonal descent - resulting in an artwork with elan.
gabuco2a.gif Gabuco
Filial love is a strong Filipino ethos through the ages.  An obvious strong bond obtains, despite the two faces cast in two different directions and the wet-on-wet technique used.
rollie2a.gif Rollie
Watercolor, a deceptively difficult medium, is practically controlled and commanded to flow within its own limits, in either sharp or blurred contours, for an expansive pictorial composition.
