REGION I

"THE SKETCH" BY VICTORIO EDADES

This oil canvas painting of Victorio Edades in Dagupan Pangasinan was influenced by Post-Impressionism, it presents a situation in which a painting is created within the representation itself, thus affording viewers to experience both the process, with the painter sketching his model, and the object, which is the artifact of art. It departs from the lyricism of the academic painters of the early American Period and introduces distortion as an artistic virtue.
