“Discovery”
by Rudy Yu
June 19 to July 2, 2023
Rudy Yu’s “Discoveries” at Galerie Francesca Festival Mall is a celebration of the diversity and vibrance of the Philippines’ 7,641 islands. The exhibit features 14 original artworks that showcase Rudy Yu’s signature vibrant and illustrative style. Through his art, Rudy encourages us to go out, explore, and make discoveries, and forge our own paths. The exhibit is particularly timely as it coincides with Independence Day, a time when we celebrate our nation’s freedom and diversity. As part of the exhibit, Rudy Yu together with Galerie Francesca has collaborated with Tretorn Shoes to produce four designs that will be custom hand-painted on your very own pair of Tretorn shoes. The collaboration is a fitting addition to the exhibit, as it encourages visitors to continue their journey of discovery beyond the gallery walls.
As you enter “Discoveries”, you are immediately drawn to the bright and bold colors that Rudy Yu uses in his artworks. Moving through the exhibit, you’ll see a range of artworks that depict various locales in the Philippines. Each artwork tells a story of exploration and discovery, with Rudy Yu’s signature style. The vivid colors used in the artwork transport you to the lush Philippine countryside and encourage you to explore the many natural wonders of the country.
The artworks serve as a reminder that there is always something new to discover, even in the most familiar of places.
The exhibit runs from June 19 to July 2, 2023, with an artist’s reception happening on June 20 at Galerie Francesca’s flagship branch located in Festival Mall, Alabang
