                    [Title] => Ramon Orlina: ‘Glass is endlessly intriguing’
                    [Summary] => 



When I read in the papers that Ramon Orlina was the recipient of The Outstanding Filipino (TOFIL) Award for 2006 in the field of art, I was not at all surprised. His lifelong devotion to perfecting his art of glass sculpting makes him a shining example to his fellow artists. His pursuit of excellence in his chosen field of endeavor makes him the perfect choice for this award.

His works in green glass have become his trademark–with shimmering curves, angles and contours that beguile those who see them.

Thirty years on, Orlina’s passion for glass has grown stronger. This much is evident as he presents his exhibition entitled "Quintessence" to celebrate his 30 years in sculpture at the MuseumSpace of, appropriately, the Glass Wing of Ayala Museum in Makati from October 26 to November 9.

For me, it was easy to appreciate the beauty of or the skill involved in creating a sculpture that clearly depicted a person or an object, like Michelangelo’s David or the stretched figures of Giacometti. But once the piece tended towards the abstract, I could no longer understand it.
