MANILA, Philippines - Norberto Carating presents his two-dimensional works in “Last Full Show,†which is on view until Feb. 8 at Now Gallery and Auctions, ground floor, Ecoplaza Bldg., 2305 Chino Roces Ave. Ext., Makati City.
Carating’s idiom of grooved horizontals and verticals have been inspired by the landscaped farmlands of Spain. In his 2000 visit to Valencia, Spain for an exhibition, he was struck by the neatly grooved fields of the countryside. These vast plots of yellow sunflowers, amber wheat and bronzed ricefields, set amid the golden sunset of Spain, left an indelible impression on Carating.
This vision of gold, bronze, and yellow patches of land led him to a serendipitous creation of two-dimensional works that are instant and constant reminders of that unforgettable landscape, of a memorable state of the artist at that particular point in time.
