Foreword

In behalf of our family, we would like to express our sincerest gratitude to the organizers of MoCAF 2022 and to the numerous collectors, art galleries, and cultural institutions that have made this exhibition possible.

Although with the passage of time, many of these artworks are no longer in the possession of our family, the selected artworks are among our favorites. This selection includes the view of the magnificent Manila Bay from his unit, a painting of his living room and bedroom as well.

There are also nostalgic artworks of parks and vistas in Europe which remind one of his early years in Spain and Germany. Then there are artworks of his neo-figurative cum abstract works which rank among important collectors’ favorites as they combine figurative still lifes with my father’s abstract modalities. The exhibit also includes tapestries, nudes, portraits, and his celebrated abstracts.

If at all this is indeed a heartwarming reunion of artworks that bring about such fond memories of a life well lived and an indomitable spirit faithfully captured in the art that was created.
