Remembering the Great Master: Works by Salvador Juban, Botong's Apprentice


National Artist Carlos "Botong" Francisco continues to inspire succeeding generations of local artists especially from his hometown in Angono, Rizal. One of the artists that emulated and had worked with Botong through the years was Salvador Juban.

In celebration of the Botong's life, work, and influence on the 100th anniversary of his birth, the Yuchengco Museum presents the works of Salvador Juban, Angono artist and Botong Francisco’s longest-serving artist-assistant and protégé. Dubbed as Remembering the Great Master, the exhibit features paintings, murals, sketches, and studies by Juban. 

The art exhibit is currently ongoing until Jan. 7, 2013 and can be seen at the Alcove Gallery, 3/F Yuchengco Museum, RCBC Plaza in Ayala Avenue, Makati City.  [YGC]
