Federico Aguilar Alcuaz (Filipino, 1932–2011).

Federico Aguilar Alcuaz was a


20th-century Filipino painter known for his Cubist-inspired paintings. Most
often depicting nude women, interiors, still lives, and landscapes, Alcuaz’s
work is characterized by its soft blurred edges coupled with bold lines and
shapes. This contact between forms creates distinctively dynamic spatial
overlaps throughout his compositions, resulting in lively and memorable
images. Born on June 6, 1932 in Manila, the Philippines, he went on to study
fine arts at the University of the Philippines and moved to Barcelona, Spain to
start his artistic career. Alcuaz’s work is in the collections of the Barcelona
Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Modern Art of Warsaw, and the
Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid, among others. Alcuaz died on
February 2, 2011 in Manila, the Philippines.

Architecture, 2006. Ildefonso Paez Santos, Jr., distinguished himself by pioneering the
practice of landscape architecture–an allied field of architecture–in the Philippines and
then producing four decades of exemplary and engaging work that has included hundreds
of parks, plazas, gardens, and a wide range of outdoor settings that have enhanced
contemporary Filipino life. Santos, Jr., who grew up in Malabon, made his first mark with
the Makati Commercial Center where he introduced a new concept of outdoor shopping
with landscaped walks, fountains and sculptures as accents. Santos, Jr.’s contribution to
modern Filipino landscape architecture was the seminal public landscape in Paco Park.
Santos, Jr.’s most recent projects were the Tagaytay Highland Resort, the Mt. Malarayat Golf
and Country Club in Lipa, Batangas, and the Orchard Golf and Country Club in Imus, Cavite.

Francisco 'Bobby' Mañosa (born February 12, 1931) is a Filipino architect noted for his
Filipino inspired architectural designs. His most notable work is The Coconut Palace. Mañosa
devoted his life’s work to creating a Filipino identity in architecture. Inspired by traditional
vernacular forms such as the bahay kubo and the bahay na bato, Mañosa combined traditional
forms and indigenous materials with modern building technology to create structures he felt
were best suited to the Philippines’ tropical climat Francisco Mañosa was born in Manila,
Philippines. He currently lives in Ayala Alabang Village as a retired but decorated architect. He
has 3 children, all of whom now work for the family company. Bambi, the eldest and only
daughter, is the head of the interior design department of Mañosa & Co, as well as the Director
of the Tukod Foundation. Dino acts as CEO of the entire Mañosa Group, and is the founder and
CEO of Mañosa Properties. Francisco's youngest son, Gelo, continues his architectural legacy as
the CEO of Mañosa & Co. While not working on his projects for the company, Francisco Mañosa
was also part of the jazz band The Executive Band. He played piano for the band. In 2012,
Francisco Mañosa had a fall in which he cracked two vertebrae which had to be fused in order
to heal. He also needed heart bypass surgury in order to repair a life-threatening ventricular
blockage.[4]

Carlos A. Santos-Viola
Carlos Antonio Santos-Viola FPIA (born Carlos Santos-Viola y Antonio; April 8, 1912 – July
31, 1994) was an architect in the Philippines. He is best known for designing and building
churches for the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) religious group. Carlos was born in San Miguel, Bulacan
and one of six children to Melecio de Guzman Santos and Miguela Magpitang Antonio. Santos-
Viola was one of the very first graduates of the College of Architecture of the University of
Santo Tomas in 1935. During this time the professors then were outstanding architects and
engineers of the period, such as Tomas Arguelles, Tomas Mapua, Juan F. Nakpil, Fernando H.
Ocampo, and Andres Luna de San Pedro. There he met Juan's youngest sister, Caridad, his
future wife and mother to his children: Rosario, Milagros, Paz, Lourdes and Carlos, Jr. In 1955,
both parted ways and practiced separately. His first exposure to the INC group was executed
under Nakpil's company through the Bishop's Palace in San Juan, Manila. INC gave the
subsequent project directly to Santos-Viola. Although common elements may be visible, his
designs were distinct from one another. Each structure was created on functionality that was
built with integrity, adorned with 20th-century geometric forms garnished with Gothic revival
and Baroque lines. Among those completed designs was the INC's central office in Quezon City.
Architect Santos-Viola was the only Filipino Architect who designed churches that were built all
over the Philippines. He also taught architecture at the college where he graduated, and helped
found the Philippine Institute of Architects in 1938. The Iglesia ni Cristo in Cubao, Quezon City
was the first building designed by Santos-Viola for the INC. The Iglesia ni Cristo Central Temple
in Commonwealth Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City was the largest Chapel designed by Santos-
Viola. Another unique design of Santos-Viola was the INC Central Office viewed through the
spire of the Central Temple while under construction.
Leandro Locsin (August 15, 1928 – November 15, 1994) National Artist for
Architecture, 1990. Leandro V. Locsin reshaped the urban landscape with a distinctive
architecture reflective of Philippine Art and Culture. He believes that the true Philippine
Architecture is “the product of two great streams of culture, the oriental and the
occidental… to produce a new object of profound harmony.” It is this synthesis that
underlies all his works, with his achievements in concrete reflecting his mastery of space
and scale. Every Locsin Building is an original, and identifiable as a Locsin with themes of
floating volume, the duality of light and heavy, buoyant and massive running in his major
works. From 1955 to 1994, Locsin has produced 75 residences and 88 buildings, including
11 churches and chapels, 23 public buildings, 48 commercial buildings, six major hotels,
and an airport terminal building.
Locsin’s largest single work is the Istana Nurul Iman, the palace of the Sultan of Brunei, which
has a floor area of 2.2 million square feet. The CCP Complex itself is a virtual Locsin Complex
with all five buildings designed by him — the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Folk Arts
Theater, Philippine International Convention Center, Philcite and The Westin Hotel (now Sofitel
Philippine Plaza).
