by Constantino Tejero
Like the half human, half-animal figures on
his
canvases, Andres Barrioquinto may be said to be a hybrid artist. Utilizing the
styles and techniques of expressionism and surrealism, incorporating text and
the literary devices of allegory and personification and investing the work
with a social realist content, he produces the postmodern.
Man as animal, Animal as Man
By Alice G. Guillermo
Art:
In one painting the female nudeslithers on the floor to lick the stem of a cocktail
glass, Red stiletto heels are signifiers of vanity as well as cruelty, since
they are also weapons that crush without mercy.
Images from a private Hell
By Alice Guillermo
Besides
the incisions, there are also drippings that mark the figures and their habitation.
From the mouth of several figures blood issues forth
By Patrick Flores
The artist's hand that grasp an 8B pencil and firm clench confronts the purity of the paper quite with impunity. The stroke is deep, dogged, and disciplined. The gesture is iterative but eventually purposeful. In this painstaking process of drawing, deathly figures emerge.
Pondering the dark art of BARRIOQUINTO
By Roel Membrado
Apparently,
eerie movies, dreadful books and bloody creatures of one's imagination has nothing
to do with a well-defined man who do not refuse to see the others side of reality;
but indeed, he will just focus his nature to defy the truth around him.

It
is an anatomical anomaly, to be sure, thisimage of a woman's abdomen with the
umbilical cord extruding from the navel. It will have to work only as a overstretched
metonym, and somehow, one feels that Andres Barrioquinto, 23 years young, precautious,
compulsive portraitist has come down to a part of the body with which he is
not in his depth.

By
Emmanuel Torres
Another painting may have shocked viewers as having nothing to do with Lenten piety but plenty to do with the demonic, especially if you read the profane inscriptions.
By Jose
Tence Ruiz
It might be disappointing for some of us to hear Andres Barrioquinto does not have to dwell on Bram Stoker, Mars Ravelo, Alex Nino or some other more au courant preacher of the gothic to arrive at his brooding, rust drenched compositions.

Drawing Exhibition in Taipei, Taiwan. Last year's 9th Biennial awarded an Honorable
Mention to Andres Barrioquinto (b. 1975), the first Filipino to be so honored
in this prestigious art event.
By Nancy T. Lu
Filipinos

naturally if given the opportunity. 24-year-old Andres Santos Barrioquinto emerged
as one of the eight most outstanding artists in the drawing category.
There's a painter in the house
By Cesar Barrioquinto
My
boy paints. He draws hideous people that judges seem to like. Last year they
gave him citations and a third prize for his works. This year they awarded him
two first prizes.
