Duetto
Migs Villanueva and Anna de Leon are mounting Duetto, a joint exhibition of their most recent paintings at the Galerie Stephanie that opens July 21.
They will not divulge the number of years they have known each other—all they say is that they were schoolmates since first grade. They call themselves ‘best friends,’ and “Duetto” examines not only the things they have in common, but celebrates the ways they differ. They find the show title so apt, because music and art have been their earliest and strongest bonds. They admit to having differences of expression, language, values, both in life and in their individual artistic pursuits, and these differences are what affords greater harmony between them.
The Duetto collection is an interesting juxtaposition of two styles, two visions. On the one hand is the almost playful surrealism of Anna de Leon, as seen in her depiction of pairs of quail eggs, or a singular leaf in a tangle of string. De Leon’s clean and polished minimalism is a way, she says, of teasing the audience’s curiosity. Migs Villanueva, who is also a multi-awarded writer, depicts emotion through motion and color. Perhaps a quote from the Saturday Group Art Book will best describe her aesthetics: “In painting as in writing, Migs gives way to unplanned impulses where thoughts and feelings she might not even be aware of have a way of becoming form. She aims not so much for beauty or polish in her art as for a rugged, expressive mess of a sort—like her characters are in her stories. While she goes for a very illustrative effect when writing stories, in her visual art, she takes on a reductive sensibility that reduces all illustration into distilled essence.”
