The exhibit includes the artist’s works from the pre-war period, which show lessons in Cubism; to the ascendancy of Neo-Realism in the 1950s and 1960s; and select large-scale works from the 1970s to the 1980s.

The works of Legaspi shows the progression and development of Philippine painting in the 20th century — from the rigorous intellectualism of Cubism in his early paintings to the harmonious unity of stylized figuration and tropical chromaticism at the peak of Neo-Realism.
