Zean Cabangis (b. 1985) That's What She Said; That's Not What She Meant signed and dated 2011 (lower right) acrylic and emulsion transfer on canvas 48" x 45" (122 cm x 114 cm) Accompanied by a certificate issued by ArtInformal and signed by the artist confirming the authenticity of this lot Often seen as one of the leading voices of Contemporary Filipino Abstraction, Zean Cabangis' novel and unique approach to the craft has revitalized the medium and tradition. His dedication to artistic innovation has led him to develop his own signature form of abstraction which utilizes acrylic and emulsion transfers to achieve unconventional yet creative forms and figures. Cabangis' work is heavily inspired by the various scenes that make up everyday life, such as patterns, shapes, colors, and even memories. Thus, one can view Cabangis' work as not merely an example of abstraction, but as a keen set of lenses that allows one to view the true nature of reality

Zean Cabangis (b. 1985) Untitled
Est: ₱80,000 - ₱104,000
Zean Cabangis (b. 1985) Untitled signed 2016 fiber glass reinforced resin, mixed media 18" x 28 1/2" x 19" (46 cm x 72 cm x 48 cm) P 80,000 In his early works, Zean Cabangis used to portray subjects who have a close connection to him, such as his grandmother and uncle, whose life stories impacted his young imagination. The recent works of Cabangis have transcended beyond this practice. He has shifted towards exploring for “open spaces that bear the capacity to generate awe.” He places a striking geometric form marked by an array of vivid colors that fill the “open space.” This serves as interference that entirely revamps the topography of the world he attempts to recreate. The “open spaces” that Cabangis employs in his works represent places that have been slowly disintegrating within the congested urban spaces of Manila. As an artist who grew up in the city, Cabangis saw its rapid urbanization led by deluded and greedy capitalists. Their thirst for capital and their misguided vision of progress have transformed the city’s spaces into “dense concrete jungles” – a prison-like bastion of edifices that serves no real purpose to the ordinary people, especially the urban poor. In Wasak! Filipino Art Today, Cabangis’ works are described as follows: “His foreboding works serve as a kind of antidote to an ailment: the lack of center, the abolition of color, and the abandonment of one’s imagination. His pieces, daunting as they may appear, are in fact, allegories for a quest, much as he himself has searched during his wanderings for the perfect view. The search for an apparition; the search for intervention; and, ultimately, the search for the perfect anomaly that one hopes will change the monotonous strain of existence.”

Zean Cabangis (b. 1985) - Joey with Matinee Idol
Est: ₱100,000 - ₱130,000
Zean Cabangis (b. 1985) Joey with Matinee Idol signed and dated 2007 (lower right) acrylic on canvas 36” x 30” (91 cm x 76 cm) WRITE UP: Contemporary artist Zean Cabangis’ works are informed more than his personal experiences. Through his art, Cabangis explores the concepts and processes of both remembering and forgetting. Memories are reconstructed, scenes from films are reimagined, and everyday objects are treated with novel perspective by the artist. This early work shows Cabangis’ artistic preoccupations during his younger artist years, before developing a style in which he reproduces multiple photographic images to create accumulated layers, evoking a level of engagement to his viewers. Here, he takes upon the concept of the matinee idol or an actor popular as a romantic figure among women through evocative portraiture. Cabangis finished his Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA), majoring in Painting, at the UP College of Fine Arts, and has been part of various exhibits in the country and abroad.

Zean Cabangis - (b.1985) - Would That Not Be Nice 2016
Est: ₱80,000 - ₱104,000
Zean Cabangis (b.1985) Would That Not Be Nice 2016 signed and dated 2012 (verso) The drama of Cabangis’ linear art, is striking for he seems to say he is trying to make something that doesn’t exist in nature until he makes them, as well as express a wide range of visual experiences and moods of imagination that are integral parts of the artist’s character that cannot be expressed in other forms. Cabangis’ work is embedded in his personal experiences and explores the processes of remembering and forgetting. Zean Cabangis, trained as a painter, uses acrylic and emulsion transfer as his medium. The use of transfer technique allows him to reproduce multiple photographic images and create a sensation of accumulated layers. The subject matter of his work consists of reconstructed memories, objects and scenes from everyday life, even film scenes as well. He is a recipient of multiple prizes: Most Outstanding Thesis of 2006 (College of Fine Arts, University of the Philippines), Gawad Chancellor Award for Academic Achievement (Shell Student’s Art Competition, Manila, 2004), Faber Castel Painting Competition (Finalist, 2008) and most recently Artist-in-Residence at Southeast Asia Group Exchange Programme, Tenggara, Yogyakarta, Indonesia (2011).

Zean Cabangis (b.1985) Oftentimes, It Won’t Happen
Est: ₱300,000 - ₱390,000
Zean Cabangis (b.1985) Oftentimes, It Won’t Happen signed and dated 2013 (verso) acrylic and emulsion on canvas 36” x 48” (91 cm x 122 cm) A recipient of many commendations, including the Thirteen Artists Awards of the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Zean Cabangis is notable for the technique that has resulted in a body of work that investigates the intricacy of process, the dialectic of abstraction and figuration, and the relevance of the painting medium in the age of photography. In this work, Oftentimes It Won’t Happen, Cabangis explores these issues by foregrounding the preparatory marks of painting — essentially the grid — as an essential part of the subject. The squares may have been the marks left by sheets of emulsion paper with which the background has been transferred onto the canvas. As if to further dispute verisimilitude, the figures are rendered as negative spaces filled out by multi-color abstract bars. The appearance and the juxtaposition of these elements ratchets up the artifice implicit in the art form which, for centuries, has been employed to copy reality. In the works of Cabangis, illusionism is frustrated at every turn, which delivers a conceptual resonance and contributes to the persistent role of painting — this time questioning the nature of reality itself — in this day and age.
