The exhibition titled "Black Bouquet: Juvenal Sanso Prints, 1955-1968" focuses on an intensely creative period in the early years of Juvenal Sanso’s artistic career.

In 1954 Juvenal Sanso was at work at a fresco painting at the Palazzo Dario in Venice. This contact with stone and plaster and creating an image for a very large surface was the prelude to a highly prolific period in printmaking. The Paris-based artist produced an abundance of etchings and lithographs from 1955 to 1968, at the outbreak of student demonstrations. Back home in the Philippines, the graphic arts movement had its beginnings in the 1960s with the efforts of Manuel Rodriguez, Sr.

Juvenal Sanso’s “fine hand for linear detail” yielded black bouquets, gnarled trees, lush vegetation and desolate landscapes—now recognized images in Philippine modern printmaking. This artistic phase reached its peak when the Print Club of the Cleveland Museum of Art honored him as Artist of the Year.

The exhibition (Black Bouquet: Juvenal Sanso Prints, 1955-1968), curated by Ditas Samson of the Ayala Museum, includes over 60 etchings and lithographs from the collections of the artist and Ayala’s Zero In partners, the Lopez Museum and the Ateneo Art Gallery.

Juvenal Sanso's exhibit, "Black Bouquet: Juvenal Sanso, 1955-1968"will be on view at the Third Floor Galleries of the Ayala Museum from November 15, 2006 to March 11, 2007.

Ayala Museum is located at Makati Avenue cor. De La Rosa Street Greenbelt Park, Ayala Center, Makati City 1224, Philippines. Ayala Museum is a division of Ayala Foundation, Inc.
