Alfredo Roces at The Crucible

MANILA, Philippines - Alfredo Roces mounts an exhibit which opens tomorrow at The Crucible Gallery, fourth floor, SM Megamall A, Mandaluyong, City. 

The artist explains, “These paintings began their lives as concepts and compositions on my iPad2 after which they were giclee-printed on canvas in very large scale to allow me to bring these concepts to their final resolutions with acrylic paint. The gestation period in the tiny iPad screen is vital because this allows me to play rapidly with gestural forms in the fever of the moment.” 

The show is on view until the Dec. 11. For information, call 635-6061.

Robert M.A. Robles at Galleria Duemila

To cap its 35th anniversary celebrations, Galleria Duemila presents “Journeys of Abstraction,” an exhibit featuring the works of resident artist Roberto M.A. Robles.

“Parable in Yellow” by Robert M.A. Robles

Sights and scents, colors and texture — they are collected and collapsed not into postcards, but vibrant flags tailored by memory, from memory. Over fields of vivid color, Robles has laid down wooden blocks, torn book pages or square swashes, filling the plane with found objects from everyday life or memory’s interior. As such, various stories are created.

The exhibit is on view until Nov. 26.

“I am the Warrior” by Marika Constantino

This three-person exhibition explores the dynamic aspect of human experience and reflects the different forms and representations of how we evolve and transform ourselves.  Image wise, it works within the realm of human figuration but conceptually tries to evoke the metaphors of transition and movement through still images.
