THE only Filipino fine artist officially licensed by Disney, Star Wars, and Marvel returns to Newport World Resorts for his sophomore exhibit, the Manila Art Show 2024. A year prior, Rodel Gonzalez debuted his Manila collection, headlined by pop culture characters, in the country’s premiere lifestyle destination. This time around, he pays homage to Year of the Dragon, painting its rich mythology in a breathtaking array of colors, textures and intricate details. Ongoing until February 28 at The Link by Marriott, the year-starter exhibit promises to transport guests, collectors, and the media into a world where myth and imagination prosper.
Gonzalez shares, “I’m excited to present the newest pieces to add to my Manila collection.” A master in the dry-brush technique, the celebrated artist continues to push the envelope of his creativity. He considers his recognition for exclusive Disney Fine Art, Star Wars, and Marvel licenses to be one of his greatest points of pride, elevating the realm of Filipino fine art.
With this Manila Art Show 2024, he enchants curious connoisseurs with highly detailed, realistic paintings, from dragons of grandeur and animal portraiture to the eccentricity of Philippine landscapes. Of course, his signature works featuring Disney royalty, Marvel superheroes, and the cinematic universe of Star Wars also join the exhibit. One Gonzalez artwork to keep a keen eye on, and even take home along with the rest of the collection, is the show-stopping “Golden Dragon” in a sea of glittering coins, wishing prosperity to all.
