At Home with Filipino Art and Artists opens doors to the homes and ateliers of twenty-one artists and art lovers—all wonderfully personal and idiosyncratic! Enter into the private worlds of renowned Filipino artists, sculptors and collectors, where it is difficult to tell where art ends and real life begins.
Writer and artist Alfredo R. Roces sets the tone with an intimate description of his bushland home in Sydney, Australia. Home of artists and art patrons—from Abueva to Orlina, from Luz to Elizalde Navarro, from Silvana Diaz to Jaime Laya—allow us to travel beyond the static world of museums and to experience the art in their lives, revealing a deep relationship between the art object and its owner. Delight in rooms that continue to grow and mature with the creative spirits behind them.
This book is about homes with a raw edge—very honest and appealing to the senses where the artists’ and the art collectors’ creative, independent and flexible spirit reflect their basic beliefs—where seemingly mundane details coexist with art. Discover the Filipino artists’ and art collectors abode—homes that have nothing to do with being pretty—homes that work for the artist and collector—not for some design diva.
Take an engaging tour of their personal vignettes, celebrate the sensitivity of their private spaces and collections that elevate the senses to a continuous passion. Whether a serious collector, seasoned designer, or simply a neophyte, At Home with Filipino Art and Artists is your ultimate experience in living with art.
