Vicente Manansala
(January 22, 1910 – August 22, 1981)
Vicente Silva Manansala was a Filipino
cubist painter and illustrator. One of the
first Abstractionists on the Philippine art
scene Vicente Manansala is also credited
with bridging the gap between the city and
the suburbs, between the rural and
cosmopolitan ways of life. Manansala's
paintings are the best and were celebrated as
the best of the barrio and the city together.
His Madonna of the Slums is a portrayal of a
mother and child from the countryside who
became urban shanty residents once in the city.
In his Jeepneys, Manansala combined the
elements of provincial folk culture with the
congestion issues of the city.[1]
Manansala developed transparent cubism,
wherein the "delicate tones, shapes, and patterns of figure and environment are masterfully
superimposed". A fine example of Manansala using this "transparent and translucent" technique is
his composition, kalabaw (Carabao).
