Raul Lebajo (b. 1941) Park #135 signed and dated 1974 (verso) oil on canvas 36" x 36" (91 cm x 91 cm) P 160,000 PROVENANCE Private Collection, Manila The revered artist Raul Lebajo is known for depicting dreamlike images of nature and everyday life. In the course of Philippine art history between the 1970s and 1980s, Lebajo was often noted alongside Vicente Manansala, Victorio Edades, and Cesar Legaspi. Ang Kiukok and Jerry Elizalde Navarro were also among his contemporaries. Lebajo’s artistic preoccupations include exploring the expressive qualities of shapes, as well as strong colors like yellow and orange hues and other contrasting colors which he often preferred. His subjects range from minute details—cells, veins, and roots—to plants, fruits, and varieties of organic life found in the land and sea. His other works often feature a hauntological subversion of familiar scenes and sights, effectively engaging the viewer in the mystery and beauty of the mundane.
