EXECUSION




PRESENT (A)MUSINGS: ExecuSIOn 2010
by Reuben Ramas Cañete

The great thing about Philippine Contemporary Abstraction is that, unlike Western Abstraction, it never aspires for asociality and atemporality. On the contrary, it has always thrived on the present, its impact upon the artist, and how the world flows, convulses, and flexes through the maelstrom of emotion, social standing, and a definable time/space singularity. Asian in its sensitivity to nature and the aspiration for peace and tranquillity, Pinoy Abstractionists also revel in the founding emotion of social contact and eventful reckonings within the definable location of Here. It is in this context that Dennis Montera’s new ExecuSIOn series re-enacts our own national misadventures, our zigzagging mindsets and behaviours, and our ability to ride on other winds of change in order to stay alive, and together, as a definable mass sitting at the edge.

Sio Montera holds an MFA degree from UP Diliman and is a tenured faculty of the Fine Arts Department in U.P.Cebu. He is also a EXECON member of the Committee on Visual Arts of the NCCA. He has been awarded the grand prize in the non-figurative category of the 2010 GSIS Painting Competition and is a recipient of the 2008 and 2010 Chancellor's Award in U.P. Visayas for his outstanding achievements in research and creative work. The exhibit is the artist's twelfth solo show on abstract art. EXECUSION will run from August 19-29 at the Renaissance Gallery, 4th Level SM Megamall Bldg.A, Mandaluyong City. For inquiries call 02-6373101.
