ABOUT THE WORK

Federico Aguilar Alcuaz painted with a powerful brush, one that succeeded in harmonizing the pictorial parts such that they could be perceived simultaneously. His artworks are always alive with vibrant colors and vigorous strokes. Although his abstract works were influenced by Picasso and Matisse, Alcuaz strove to infuse his worldview and personality into his art style.From his early years in the Philippines to his sojourns in Europe, Alcuaz has drawn inspiration from a plethora of sources, resulting in art that is universal in nature. The observer may assume that while the artist executed his strokes and applied his solid colors, there was a sense of serendipity that reveals a sort of "dancing" poetry propelled by pure energy in an Alcuaz piece, a stirring of imagination radiating from his works that conveys a pleasing experience to the observer.
