Excerpt: The Sariaya Tourism Council and the Quezon Provincial Tourism Council exhibited twenty paintings of Ateneo de Manila alumnus and visually-impaired painter L. De Guzman at Galleria Immanuel, Legazpi Village, Makati City, from September 6–16, 2013. Entitled Gani-re Kami Di-ne (roughly, “The Way We Are over Here”), the exhibition was a chance for the viewer to be transported to bucolic scenes from Quezon, the painter’s province of origin. This, indeed, was a first, considering that De Guzman’s subjects for two previous exhibitions (A Tale of Muses and Dreams and Finding Paradise Lost) were renditions of flora, fauna, and human and mythological figures.
