Cevio Art Haus celebrates its 1st year anniversary this month. The gallery is thrilled to invite you to its biggest art exhibition to date, a back to back solo show of two of the most promising contemporary Filipino visual artists, one of them Raymond C. Kawataki Go of Boac, Marinduque.
In his second solo show and comeback exhibition, Of Gods and Patriots, artist Raymond Katawaki Go delves into the question of power and its immanent contradictions by projecting ancient and contemporary images, of the religious and the secular in an attempt to call and respond to myth and reality. These arresting images turn into a social introspection to review the historical past and institutional ideas that are so intrinsic to intervention and inquiry but with a pulse on the present based on the artist’s understanding and impressions of these realities.
After years of hiatus, Kawataki Go makes a comeback with this major show at Cevio that re-registers his remarkable artistic skills and passion for art and instigation of critical thought.
Go is joined by artist Jessie Mondares with Messengers. Mondares' mixed media paintings are rendered with palpable exploit on pen and ink and acrylic. His collocation of elements that are often layers of discernible--- figures and anatomical fragments of humans and animals with expanded limbs and exaggerated forms meshed with patterns, lines and o ther assigned elements and certain motifs morphing in shapes and reappearing liberally in his paintings.
Both exhibitions will run from today, Oct 18 to Nov 1. Reception on Oct 18 starts at 6 p.m. The gallery is open from Monday to Saturday with gallery hours from 12 n.n. to 8 p.m. Press release and photos from Cervio Art Haus and Raymond Kawataki Go.
