'Glenn Bautista: An Artist Drowning in Visions'

By Manila Times - 6 months ago

GLENN Bautista is an artist who people would describe as "drowning in visions." His abstract pieces are that of something that came straight out of a dream. They are enigmatic, fluid, captivating and thought-provoking. Upon seeing his art, one is almost able to experience the artist's spiritual revelations and visions from God.

In 1974, Bautista was awarded as one of the 13 artists along with Tony Perez and Nestor Vinluan. No matter which artistic medium he used, he was able to break those concepts down and illustrate a unique perspective that is able to mystify and awe people. In a way, Glenn was an artist ahead of his time and redefined what Philippine art could be.

In celebration of his life and art, Gallery Genesis proudly presents Glenn Bautista: An Artist Drowning in Visions written by Igan D'Bayan. The book reveals how a great artist came to be — his life, upbringing, inspiration and beliefs. The book also showcases more than 400 art pieces from the Genesis archives that he created throughout his life. Glenn passed away in 2014.

This June 14, 2024, Gallery Genesis invites you to the grand book launch and art exhibit opening of Glenn Bautista: An Artist Drowning in Visions at the 2/F Bridgeway, North Wing, Estancia Mall, Capitol Commons, Ortigas Center, Pasig City. Exhibit runs from June 14 to 30, 2024.
