Haven
Christian Tamondong
First Solo Exhibition in Jakarta, Indonesia
Audi Showroom Gallery, MT Haryono, Central Jakarta
February 24 to March 5, 2006
Haven (2005) - Acrylic, oil stick on canvas
One look at Christian Tamondong's works evoke a sense of enchantment, the exhuberance of life -- colourful, playful and uplifting. That's what makes this Filipino artist one of the rising stars of the Philippine art world. A graduate of the Institute of Fine Arts and Design at the Philippine Women's University, Tamondong's unique style appropriates the colors and forms of children's art.
His paintings are characterized by strong, vibrant colors applied in their purest intensity. Intimations of innocent spontaneity appear through freely applied streaks of crayons and oil sticks and through casually controlled acrylic drippings and washes. Christian is a multi-awarded artist, whose art works are sought after in the Philippines, Singapore and the United States.
Experience the playful and exhuberant world of Christian Tamondong as Art Sentral Asia in association with AUDI present his First Solo Exhibit in Indonesia entitled "HAVEN" from February 24 to March 5, 2006 at the Audi Center MT Haryono, Jl. MT Haryono Kav 11, Jakarta, Indonesia 13330.
Opening Reception with the artist is on February 24, Friday at 6:30 pm.
