From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arturo R. Luz (born 1926) is a Philippine National Artist awardee in painting. He is also a known printmaker, sculptor, designer and art administrator. Luz produced art pieces through a discplined economy of means. His early drawings were described as "playful linear works" influenced by Paul Klee. His best masterpieces are minimalist, geometric abstracts, alluding to the modernist "virtues" of competence, order and elegance; and were further described as evoking universal reality and mirrors an aspiration for an acme of true Asian modernity.[1]
