Estrella, movie director, took up painting because watching Hernando R. Ocampo paint “gave him an itch” to try his hand at it. In 1950, he became one of the original Neo-Realists and won two Art Association of the Philippine awards with the painting entitled “Cloistered” (first prize) and “Madonna” (honorable mention.) The latter was brought by the Philippine Government later and sent to the Vatican as a gift of the Philippines to the Holy City. Estella with two other Filipino artists, Venancio Igarta and Rey Isip, has shown at the Guggenheim Gallery in Baltimore and the Coeval Gallery in New York City. He was also represented in the Philippine Cultural Exhibition of 21 Filipino artists held at the Carnegie Endowment International Center in New York City. Aside from painting, Estella also sculpts. The three oils he contributed — including the one at hand — betray a pre-occupation with abstract sculptural forms. — Lyd Arguilla, writing in the 7 years of the Philippine Art Gallery

    Ramon A. Estella (1911 - 1991) War Scene

    Est: ₱200,000 - ₱260,000

      Ramon A. Estella (1911 - 1991) War Scene signed (lower right) ca. 1945 oil on masonite board 16” x 20” (40 cm x 50 cm) P 200,000 PROVENANCE Acquired directly from the Artist by Antolin M. Oreta and thence by descent This oil on canvas painting of the War Scene by Ramon A. Estella was done on site along Padre Faura when Manila was liberated in 1945. Estella, a student back then, was able to capture the aftermath of war-torn Manila - enervating the traumas of World War II yet capturing the allure of what remained of the glorious capital - a beauty inside a sad story. Ramon Estella first made a name for himself as a writer and director for film during the 1950s. Working together with Hernando Ocampo, Vicente Manansala, Cesar Legaspi, Romeo Tabuena and Victor Oteyza, he became a practitioner of expressionism and cubism and later developed a style characterized by bold lines and strident colors. Estella had always believed that this approach of painting “leads to a healthy movement, to a kind of art which allows the painter the same freedom in paint as music notes allow the composer -- not an imitation of nature but a personal interpretation.”
