Art critic Demetrio Paparoni has taken a closer look at Andres Barrioquinto, one of the most celebrated and internationally sought-after Southeast Asian contemporary artists today, through a comprehensive monograph published by Rizzoli New York. In Paparoni’s curation of the book aptly titled Barrioquinto, he gathered the writings of Patrick Flores and Elio Cappuccio that analyse the early works of the acclaimed artist from his first solo exhibition in 2001 up to his later works of the last decade. Fundacion Sansó museum director and curator Ricky Francisco, meanwhile, shares his tête-à-tête with Barrioquinto, who has been dubbed by the local art scene as the “Dark Man” of Philippine art to further grasp his artistic philosophy and the turning point in his career that pivoted his style from the “ugly” to the “beautiful”.
“A friend of mine, Rocky David, told me that he wants to do a book project with Rizzoli,” says Barrioquinto, recalling when he was approached to be featured by the globally renowned publishing house. “I was actually surprised because Rizzoli is known to be very selective with their roster of artists to publish and they have never featured a Filipino artist yet.”
