Update on the “Ugo-Filippo Show”

Posted: August 23rd, 2008 - Category: Bali Blurbs, Fine Art Reviews - 1 Comment »

Finally, here are photos from the Ugo Untoro/Filippo Sciascia vernissage at Biasa Artspace (which I posted about a couple weeks ago). Your patience has been rewarded. Sorry, no photos of Ugo. He’s kind of shy.

The tense reciprocity of Ugo and Filippo’s collaborative works is visually arresting, and crackles with static electricity. Viewers were transfixed.

Filippo expresses himself eloquently . . . on canvas, in words, and in gestures, as well.

Susanna Perini, found of Biasa Artspace and Biasa fashion house, with members of the Biasa team. She has supported and cultivated the talents of innumerable young Indonesians over the years, and imbued the whole Biasa world with an ebullient esprit de corps.

That’s Yours Truly, and Bruno, on the left. Just had to put this one in.

The cross-cultural collaboration of Ugo and FIlippo inspired lively cross-cultural discourse.

Challenging works of art on the walls, beautiful creatures in the crowd.

Separated at birth? Marco of Quarzia and Filippo bask in an atmosphere of adulation.

Bruno Piazza, someone’s back, sculptor Phillippos and friend.

Filippo enjoyed the accolades of his compatriates, and of his colleagues, including renowned Balinese artist, Made Wianta (right).

Pow! Made Wianta, Ubud-based painter Van Wieringen, and Marco of Quarzia, the haute-batik boutique of Seminyak.
