Gabriel Custodio (Filipino, 1912-1993), "Dalahican, Cavite," [A Village Scene], 1968, oil on canvas board, [approximate dimensions - sight: 30" H x 36" W], signed 'G. Custodio' and dated '3/68' at lower left; label verso. Artist's Bio: Gabriel Custodio was born in Tanza, Cavite, Philippines, and was a UP School of Fine Arts graduate known for his academic representational style and distinctive use of thick impasto, which gave his paintings a rich, textured quality. Early in his career, he painted on bancas, caretelas, and nichos. He established a studio on Taft Avenue in 1952, and in 1955, his painting My Fishing Village won the United Nations International Art Competition; the work remains at the UN headquarters in New York, USA. Custodio was also an influential mentor and leader, heading the Friday Group of Artists and the Talahib Art Group, and helping develop the skills of numerous prominent Filipino artists.
