Mark Justiniani Art for Sale and Sold Prices

b. 1966 -

Born in Bacolod City in 1966, and educated at the University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts, Justiniani gained renown as a member of the artist collective Salingpusa and later Sanggawa, two groups that indelibly shaped the development of the figurative expressionist style in the Philippines. This work, which shows a tiny human figure balanced precariously above the traffic of EDSA is trademark Justiniaini, combining technical polish with surrealist humor and tongue-in-cheek social commentary.
