Ricarte Puruganan
Ricarte Madamba Puruganan (November 20, 1912 – January 15, 1998) was a Filipino painter. He was born in Dingras, Ilocos Norte. He is the first of six children of Honorio S. Puruganan, a musician, composer, poet and painter, and Victoria M. Puruganan, a school teacher and housewife. Puruganan is regarded as "One of the Thirteen Moderns", a group of artists that broke away from the Conservatives, led by Fernando Amorsolo. His paintings were exhibited side by side with those of the other masters: Juan Luna, Felix Resurreccion Hidalgo, Fabian de la Rosa, Amorsolo, Victorio C. Edades, Vicente Manansala, Hernando R. Ocampo & Cesar Legaspi. The other side of Ricarte Puruganan's artistry is manifested by the 60 existing government and private edifices, sculptures and landscapes which he undertook during his 25 years of self-imposed exile from the art scene of Manila starting 1950. During those years, he spent communing with his ancestral town of Dingras, Dingras, Ilocos Norte. Which is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

University Of The Philippines Alumni
A university () is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards academic degrees in several academic disciplines. Universities typically offer both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. In the United States, the designation is reserved for colleges that have a graduate school. The word ''university'' is derived from the Latin ''universitas magistrorum et scholarium'', which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars". The first universities were created in Europe by Catholic Church monks.

People From Ilocos Norte
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Fernando Amorsolo
Fernando Cueto Amorsolo (born Fernando Amorsolo y Cueto; May 30, 1892 – April 24, 1972) was a portraitist and painter of rural Philippine landscapes. Nicknamed the "Grand Old Man of Philippine Art," he was the first-ever to be recognized as a National Artist of the Philippines. He was recognized as such for his "pioneering use of impressionistic technique" as well as his skill in the use of lighting and backlighting in his paintings, "significant not only in the development of Philippine art but also in the formation of Filipino notions of self and identity." Early life and education Fernando Amorsolo was born on May 30, 1892, in Metro, Manila. His parents were Pedro Amorsolo and Bonifacia Cueto. His father quickly found work in Daet, Camarines Norte months after Fernando's birth, and the family lived there until his father died when Amorsolo was 11. While he studied in a public school in Daet, his parents taught him to read and write Spanish at home. After his father's deat ...

Cesar Legaspi
Cesar Torrente Legaspi (April 2, 1917 – April 7, 1994) was a Filipino National Artist in painting. He was also an art director prior to going full-time in his visual art practice in the 1960s. His early (1940s–1960s) works, alongside those of peer, Hernando Ocampo are described as depictions of anguish and dehumanization of beggars and laborers in the city. These include ''Man and Woman'' (alternatively known as ''Beggars'') and ''Gadgets''. Primarily because of this early period, critics have further cited Legaspi's having "reconstituted" in his paintings " cubism's unfeeling, geometric ordering of figures into a social expressionism rendered by interacting forms filled with rhythmic movement".Endaya, Imelda Cajipe (artist and independent curator) and Cecilia B.
