Kim and I were Art in the Park first thing in the morning, but parking was quite difficult already. We had to park all the way in Paseo Centre and walk to Salcedo Park. By 12NN, the place was starting to fill up with people, and looking at paintings was starting to become laborious.
So, it was time to hie off to Ayala Museum to finally see the new exhibit located at the ground floor. The paintings are from the collection of Dr. Joel Mendez, featuring Ronald Ventura.
Ronald Ventura made headlines in the local art scene when a painting of his, Grayground, sold in auction at Sotheby's Hong Kong for US$1.1M.
In this exhibit we get to see his grasp on the human form. His technical expertise, without a doubt, shows that he is one of the hottest artists in the Philippine contemporary art scene.
