life (RAMON ORLINA-Glass Sculptor)

15. Painting

17. The Philippine artist Fernando
Amorsolo (1892 -1972) was a
portraitist and painter of rural
landscapes. He is best known
for his craftsmanship and
mastery in the use of light.

18. Lavandera

19. Lavendera (1957)
Amorsolo's bather represent the
epitome of Philippine beauty.
The wet drapery on this young
woman is both revealing and
sensuous. The flower is symbolic
of the woman herself.

20. Sculpture

21. Sculpture in the Philippines mirrors its culture –
complex and diverse. The art in this area has been
influenced by many different cultures, the most
prevalent being the east Asian nations, such as
China. In Islamic traditions began to be shown in
these areas in the Philippine Islands near the 14th
century. However, its culture began to expand in
the recent decades from influences in the United
States and other western nations.

22. The sacred and the mythical, the physical and
the erotic, the magical and the mundane, the
religious and the profane, and music and
song all permeate the art of Filipina artist
Agnes Arellano. Drawing from rich personal
experience and an extraordinary range of
influences, she makes some of the most
dramatic art in Asia.
Best known for surrealist and expressionist
work in plaster (cast and directly modeled),
bronze, and cold-cast marble, Her work tends
to stress the integration of individual
elements into one totality or "inscape".
She has participated in international group
exhibitions in Berlin, Fukuoka, Havana,
Johannesburg, New York, Brisbane and
Singapore.

St. Augustine
Bishop and Doctor of the Church
