  19. Anita Magsaysay Ho Anita Magsaysay-Ho’s works are characterized by sharplyoutlined figures of bandanna wearing peasant womengoing about in their daily chores - running after chicken, planting, harvesting. The women are thin, with long necks, slanteyes, and flat noses. They are definitely Filipinas. Magsaysay-Ho is probably the first Filipina artist to gain national and international recognition.

  20. Anita Magsaysay Ho DESCRIPTION OF THE WORKS OF ANITA MAGSAYSAY-HO

  21. Anita Magsaysay Ho • During the early 1940s Magsaysay Ho's works showed the influence of Amorsolo in choice of subjects and in treatment of light and color, however, these works had very modernist tendencies, such as the use of expressive distortion and concern for design and rhythm.

  22. Anita Magsaysay Ho • The Philippine Art Gallery (PAG) did much to situate Magsaysay Ho's art in the modernist movement of the 1950s.

  23. Anita Magsaysay Ho • In her paintings of the PAG period, which had as subjects women harvesting fruits, gathering sheaves of grain, or selling fish in the market in their baro't saya and bandana, Magsaysay Ho emphasized movement and bustling interaction by means of bold, vigorous brushstrokes and strong tonal contrasts of light and dark.

  24. Anita Magsaysay Ho • The lines tended to soften with a more consistent modeling, the light and dark tones, creating a more harmonious and mellifluous effect that hinted of choreographic grace.

  25. Anita Magsaysay Ho • The style developed into paintings with movement and greater interaction among the figures.

  26. Anita Magsaysay Ho • While her subjects were still the native women, she randomly spattered her canvases with delicately controlled ink blots which suggested rock formations, vegetation or waves in the sea.

  27. Anita Magsaysay Ho • Her concern had evidently become purely formal: balance the interest and variety of the human gestures and movements with the dynamic and assertive power of the ink blots.

  28. Anita Magsaysay Ho • A distinct period in the mid late 1980s may be called the Green Period after its predominant coloration. • The predominant green is the hue of leaves, fruit, and vegetables; the women figures themselves share this quality symbolically as they themselves become like plants and fruit in nature.

  29. Anita Magsaysay Ho • In the late 1980s Magsaysay Ho began to paint large half figures. • She filled the pictorial field entirely with female figures surrounded by baskets, fruits, or tame birds hopping around them.

  30. Anita Magsaysay Ho • Her colors became very Asian, using stark contrasts such as burnt sienna and yellow greens.

  31. Anita Magsaysay Ho Magsaysay-Ho is probably the first Filipina artist to gain national and international recognition.
