Joya

Title: Joya
Foreward by: Francisco Arcellana
Synopsis: Joya’s Drawings disprove a charge often made against artist: that they do abstraction because they can’t do the human figure. In his drawing, Joya dazzingly proves he can detail the human body even without an actual model before him- and the question arises: May not his representational drawings outrank his abstract paintings in the future? He says he ranks them equal- “although in terms of weight, the paintings will always be heavier”, But let time decide. “The paintings are my private fun. I do them for my own satisfaction.”.

Tolentino

Title: Tolentino
Text and Design: Rod Paras -Perez
Synopsis: Sometime in 1975 the feeling that a book about my childhood friend and townmate, Guillermo Tolentino, ought to be written came to me with an intensity I could neither ignore nor explain. I felt that there was something to be lost if nothing is written about Tolentino, so I called up another friend and provincemate, the writer Fred Mangahas. I found Fred enthusiastic about the project and forthwith he started research work.
