ART IN FORBES PARK<\/p>\n
In today\u2019s fast-paced world, Alan SyCip manages to balance work with his penchant for creativity. A passionate artist, he has carved out a niche, with his mastery of a style very much his own, and which has expanded through the years. Alan and his gracious wife, Marissa recently hosted a wine and art exhibit at their posh Forbes Park residence. With a Bachelor\u2019s degree in painting from Carnegie Mellon University, his creative impulse was fashioned into the world of acrylics, whose themes ranged from landscapes and zen ; to the abstract and the surreal.\u00a0 The couple entertained guests and friends in their sprawling home and with the collection displayed at the walls of the living room, it was a visual perspective of how an art buyer would imagine the paintings in their own house, framed against stark white walls.<\/p>\n
Dealing daily with his abstract ideas, the artist \u201cfelt ensconced in an ivory tower\u201d. He laments that the \u201cworrisome real world forever lurks just outside.\u201d\u00a0 Alan\u2019s excellence in mastering began as early as in High School where he was tutored privately by Dr. Rodolfo Paras-Perez.\u00a0 He exhibited in leading galleries in Manila. His versatility as well as his restless nature makes him a dynamo, possessing the capacity to work on four paintings at a time, yet all different from each other; thus proving his adeptness over diverse painting styles.<\/p>\n
Alan enthused: \u201cArt makes us unique. It is one of man\u2019s highest intellectual endeavors and what defines a civilization, the laws of physics are uniform throughout the galaxy, so other civilizations on other worlds would have similar technologies \u201c.<\/p>\n
