Item Overview

Description

Louie Cordero (b.1978)
Holiday On R.P signed and dated 2006 (lower right)
acrylic on canvas
48” x 48” (122 cm x 122 cm) Property from the Patrick Reyno collection As a manifestation of the “New Fil-Am Painting” movement, Louie
Cordero’s assemblies of stock Pinoy pop imagery finished with that
prototypical acrylic matte surface (calling to mind American ghetto
paintings, enlivened with graffiti, stylized body fluids and vibrant entrails,
seems like a junior’s homage to its aesthetic instigator, Manuel Ocampo.
As a preface, when Ocampo blew into town, he changed the
imagery of Philippine visual arts by defamiliarizing the familiar repertoire:
it was no longer just dada or surrealism but a postmodern night train
surrealism careening on the brink of chaos. But whereas Ocampo’s
reputation revels in the shock value of his flagrantly abject iconic
stereotypes, Louie Cordero’s almost cutesy painterly approach makes him
appealing to a broader cross section of a brace new world of audiences.
The youthful defiance of his powerful works is more than reactionary
and vicarious. What Cordero represents is an in-your-face disavowal
of stiff upper lip sensibilities, crossing as he does into territories of our
shared psyche that had long remained uncharted.
This pop meets punk firewall art may partly explain Cordero’s popularity
with artists, curators and the art loving public, as can be gleaned in his
various gallery engagements across the United States (San Francisco,
Austin, and New York City. In fact, this work, “Holiday in R.P.”, with
its psychedelic, flower child era vibe, was done the year he was listed
among the 2006 Thirteen Artists Awards of CCP.
