BenCab: Filipino Artist, Book 1 & 2 by Patrick D. Flores and Cid Reyes
In stock
Book I
This book centers on the modern form through the devices of the grid, the drape, and the stain. These are assessed not merely in formalist terms, but as aspects of what National Artist Benedicto Cabrera calls the "Philippine interest," a term that signifies the artist's sensitivity to art and society. Marking this form as modern initiates a conversation on what constitutes the modern beyond the neorealism of the fifties and the abstraction of the sixties, and how it prefigutes the social realism of the seventies. An extensive interview with the artist and timeline of his practice round out the critical refection.
Book 2
This exhibition catalog presents not only the exhibitions on the works of National Artist Benedicto Cabrera held from 2015 through 2016. How the institutions curate Cabrera is as enlightening as the variety of art that they convey to the public. The interpretation of the curator shapes the discourse of the form and reveals a particular methodology through which to understand the work and the artist. Let this catalogue then serve as an occasion to appreciate the talent and inclination of institutions in the Philippines to assess the diverse crystallizations of an artist's corpus.
