[Visual Arts] 1. a. b. Cesar Legaspi (1990) A pioneer "Neo-Realist" of the country, he is remembered for refining cubism in the Philippine context. He made use of geometric fragmentation technique, weaving social comment and juxtaposing the mythical and modern into his overlapping, interacting forms with disturbing power and intensity. c. A self-taught painter from Sta. Cruz, Manila, his canvases evoked the lush Philippine landscape, its flora and fauna, under the sun and rain in fierce and bold colors. d. Arturo Luz (1997) e. He pioneered abstract expressionism in the Philippines. He distinguished himself by creating an authentic Filipino abstract idiom that transcended foreign influences. Most of his paintings of harmonious colors were inspired by Philippine landscapes and his use of rice paper in collages placed value on transparency, a common characteristic of folk art.
