JUVENAL SANSÓ: RARE & VINTAGE WORKS
21 rare works by internationally renowned artist Juvenal Sansó will be presented in this highly-anticipated showcase. The featured works reflect the artist's 50-year stay in Europe. In particular, the seascapes and wild terrain of Brittany, where he spent 24 consecutive summers, and which became a major source of inspiration for Sansó. In the late 1980's, he spent much time in Villanova, Spain from where he likewise made outstanding works.
Sansó held his first one-man show in Paris in 1956 where he has since resided, traveling extensively to hold solo exhibitions in many countries including Italy, France, Spain, England, the Philippines, the United States and Mexico. In 1964, his work "Leuers" was adjudged Print of the Year by the Cleveland Museum of Art, ranking Sanso amongst previous winners Henri Matisse and Salvador Dali. His works are represented in collections of 40 museums all over the world.
Sansó is a recipient of numerous awards including the distinguished Cross of Isabela for his outstanding achievements in art and culture from the Spanish King, His Royal Highness Juan Carlos I, as well as the Presidential Medal of Merit from the Republic of the Philippines in 2006. This year, he receives the Chevalier dans l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres from the French Ministry of Culture.
This exhibition will be held in conjunction with Encore!, the European Cultural Season in Singapore (www.europeanseason.com).
