"Streamlined II" highlights the enduring legacy of National Artist Arturo Luz.

Renaissance Art Gallery proudly presents the second iteration of “Streamlined: The Art of National Artist Arturo Luz” at the Art Center, SM Megamall. 

Curated by artist-critic Cid Reyes, the “Streamlined II” exhibition showcases Luz's rich and enduring legacy, highlighting his unwavering commitment to impeccable design and disciplined use of color. 

In 1951, distinguished art and literary critic Recaredo Demetillo noted, “I must draw attention to the work of Arturo Rogerio Luz. His forms are alive and distinguished; he understands abstraction and austerity, the sense of space and balance. He distorts with intuitive rightness and grace. In other words, he is a real artist.” 

STREAMLINED: The National Artist ARTURO LUZ Exhibition

The Renaissance Art Gallery presents the much-awaited exhibition of National Artist Arturo Luz. Titled: “STREAMLINED: The National Artist ARTURO LUZ EXHIBITION,” to be held at Art Center, 4/F, SM Megamall Bldg. A from July 2 to 13, 2024.

the works on display demonstrate the primary virtues that distinguished Arturo Luz from the rest of his contemporaries: linear and geometric, minimalist in conception, and executed with superlative technical skill and finesse. 

Arturo Luz stripped Philippine art of its excesses in color and form, as evidenced by his classic subjects, ranging from cyclists, musicians, and performers down to his still lifes and Asian cities and architecture.

All the works are authentic and original, supplied with written and visual documentation.
