MANILA, Philippines - Ronald Achacoso, Ramon Manuel “RM” de Leon, Jonathan Olazo, Raul Rodriguez and Trek Valdizno maximize and even forge beyond the physical limitation of their materials and artistic processes in “Drawing Painting” which opens on June 6 at Galleria Duemila, 210 Loring St., Pasay City. The show runs until June 30.
The exhibit bespeaks of the artists’ ability of drawing out their medium’s capacity to enliven, enrage, amuse, disturb and in the end, engage the viewer beyond mere retinal impressions.
The show also showcases the act of painting’s capacity of drawing out these artists’ inner resources and genius, “transubstantiating” their influences and selves-in progress, certainties and paradoxes, world views and fancies, into the canvas.
Achacoso, De Leon, Olaza, Rodriguez and Valdizno share the same gift of animating their medium, making paint follow their unique process.
