Galerie Anna ends the year where it started. As a way of thanking their public’s patronage, Galerie Anna presents Iskwalado II for its Christmas offering.
On a physical level, Iskwalado means flatness of the surface one’s canvas appropriately paints on. For the sensitive artist, it will be extremely difficult to proceed with the painting process unless this proper alignment is settled. Thus, Iskwalado refers to that sense of proportion that commands an image one perceives a subject matter hanged on a wall space.
A deeper understanding of Iskwalado may also connote a sort of perfection, short of having done a beautiful artwork, an excellent consummation that accompanies a significant work considered by artists.
Selected for their fresh and original approach to art-making, 40 artists were given 24 x 24 inch canvases to paint on. Encompassing three generations of creativity, Iskwalado II presents a new way of looking at group shows, not linear or thematic, regardless of art movements, schools of art, visions or painting techniques, As the Galerie Anna’s commitment and ongoing pursuit, Iskwalado II may just be a sort of Philippine contemporary art sampler, representations of particular trends or significant styles artists are now pre-occupied with. Iskwalado II defines the art of our time, as it is a celebration of the imaginings of the individual and what it means to be a Filipino artist today.
Participating artists include Gus Albor, Hermes Alegre, Nunelucio Alvarado, Ricky Ambagan, Jojo Austria, Max Balatbat, Malyn Bonayog, Mel Cabriana, Choie, Dansoy Coquilla, Nill Cruz, Joseph de Juras, Abi Dionisio, Ferdinand Doctolero, Neil Doloricon, Roberto Feleo, Dennis Filart, Grandier, Fitz Herrera, Joey Ibay, Louie Ignacio, Jun Impas, Ferdinand Liongoren, Josue Mangrobang Jr., Lex Marcos, Dennis “Sio” Montera, Bobby Nuestro, Tiny Nuyda, Sam Penaso, Jun Rocha, Kirby Roxas, Lirio Salvador, Christian Tamondong, CJ Tanedo, Valen Valero, Olan Ventura, and Orley Ypon.
