More about the artwork of Mabini Master Roger san Miguel

View and enjoy, and perhaps even smell the flowers, at our floral art collection from the masters and contemporary artists.

"Bottles, flower vases, jugs, toys, whatever, count among the items in the series of still-lifes. Presented either realistically or in Manansala´s transparent Cubism, some are decorated with designs that attest to the early Filipino´s contacts with their fellow Asians across the millennia.
Surely such objects and designs have enriched Philippine art and culture in the large."

(Quote of the text from the Book Revisiting ‘Mabini Art’, published in 2013; Germany; Klaus W. Hartung Consulting; Text by Prof. Paul Blanco Zafaralla, PH.D.)

For over 80 years now, Mabini Street, the two-kilometer street located in Ermita has been the nexus of touristy and artistic activities. In its heyday, it teemed with art galleries and shops, making it Manila’s most colorful alley.

Roger San Miguel was born on September 12, 1940 in San Pascual, Buhi, Camarines Sur.
Roger San Miguel took up Fine Arts at the University of Sto. Tomas under the sponsorship of Filipino philanthropist and art connoisseur Don Ramon Camacho of Cagayan De Oro.
He had his first one man show at the Philippine Art Gallery in 1965.
Although he follows the Amorsolo tradition, his virtuosity of style swings him the other way into neo-expressionist works. Like all the conservatives, he gravitates towards the representational.

More about the artwork from Mabini Master Oscar Ramos

Artists are inspired by women and the vibrancy they bring to life. In this work by Oscar Ramos, a beautiful lady holds a tray and has fruits around, as well as flowers, all complementing and contrasting the flowers in the background.

The Filipiniana paintings of Oscar Ramos characteristically bring out the details of human nature and the ambience of the surroundings.

More about the artwork of Paco Gorospe

“Boys know how to make a living at a young age. They vend seasonal or year-round fruits, sea-shells strung together to make a necklace or a bracelet, weeds of wild plants, and so on.

This message overpowers the varied technical renditions, to wit, clearcut-blurred contours, sharp outlines and vigorous colors, and blurred contours seeming to submerge into the background or emerge from it.”

Private Mabini Art Collection - Land- and Seascapes

Artworks on similar topics and of the same kind by different Mabini Master, here Roger san Miguel, Francisco Paco Gorospe, Rafael Popoy Cusi, Cesar Buenaventura and Gabriel Custodio.
Let us have a closer look at those six artworks on Land- and Seascapes and the artists behind those creations:
Mabini Art derives its name from Mabini Street in Ermita, Manila, where artists opened art shops after World War II. Existing records show that in 1930 there were none yet of these art shops. The history of the so-called “Mabini school,” which was established after the 1955 walkout by the “conservatives,” can be traced back to their idol, Maestro Fernando Amorsolo. As the first practitioners of Mabini Art, the “conservatives” carried on their style of painting, then called the “Amorsolo school.” The “Amorsolo school” was identified with the “realism” of Amorsolo in contrast to the “modernism” espoused by Victorio Edades and his followers.
(Quote from Prof.Tan from the book The Mabini Art Movement, published in 2013)

More about the artworks of the Mabini Masters
The Philippine landscape is open to the fury and mercy of the elements. Unvisited by typhoons and other natural catastrophes, the Philippine landscape is an Edenic sight from the plains to the hinterlands. … Or it could be a panoramic garden replete with flowers, presented in the manner of Manet, Monet, and the other French impressionists. …

Summer can denude some of the country’s mountains, exposing their red topsoil and pointed peaks.

More about the artwork of Francisco Paco Gorospe

Gorospe’s fishes belong to no particular species. They have colorful scales, bloated bellies, snouts that look like bird’s beaks, or even toad-like. They have colorful scales, bloated bellies, snouts that look like a bird's beaks, or even toads. Such renditions are come-ons for such species still to be discovered and fished out. But no matter, this does not detract from the fact that Filipinos are generally fisharians.

No Fish suffers from oxygen deficiency. In any environment, their eyes are alert without any hint that their days or even hours are numbered. They could be in a cheerless environment, on a chopping board, or in an aquarium without plastic foliage. Gorospe substituted visual mimicry with technical innovations.
