In the past Filipino art suffered from an image problem, and it was difficult to find works in Hong Kong galleries. Recently Filipino art works have been fetching high prices in international auctions indicating that Philippine art is now accepted internationally.
This is certainly the case for Dominic Rubio. His works are inspired by the Philippines during the latter part of the Spanish and then the early American colonial period. Rubio’s concern is to capture the nostalgia and romanticism of these periods while giving them a modern sensibility and whimsical appeal.
A founding member of the Guevarra Group and a graduate of the University of Santo Tomas College of Fine Arts, Rubio has been painting for almost two decades. |
