Description: This is a dynamic and visually striking Vintage Mid Century Modern Asian Filipino Abstract Cityscape Oil Painting on canvas, depicting a metropolitan cityscape scene in Manila, Philippines. Jagged and futuristic abstract skyscrapers jut out into the dark blue night sky above, rendered in various colorful hues. Several small boats are visible on the harbor below. Signed and dated: "Rick Valdez 1970" in the lower right corner. Only a handful of this artist's work is known to exist, and I could not find any information on this artist. Perhaps you know more about him or his work? Approximately 29 x 41 inches (including frame.) Actual artwork is approximately 24 x 36 inches. Very good condition for age, with some moderate scuffing, paint loss and edge wear to the original period frame. The canvas itself is dusty from storage and has light soiling throughout. Acquired from an old estate collection in San Gabriel Valley, California. Early - mid 20th century Mabini Street Filipino artworks have garnered increasing interest in recent years, as their cultural and artistic significance is now more fully appreciated.

NOTE: If you are a buyer in the Philippines interested in purchasing this work or making an offer, please contact me before purchasing or making an offer. I will need to adjust the shipping specifics, as eBay’s Global Shipping Program has many complications with shipping to the Philippines.
