Leon Gallery and the Salvador H. Laurel Foundation is set to mount “Espressió: A Laurel Family Art Exhibit” to commemorate the 91st birth anniversary of Vice President Doy Laurel and celebrate the visual artistry of the Laurel Family. A benefit exhibit show, it will be held on November 18 at the Leon Gallery International. Vice President Salvador “Doy” Roman Hidalgo Laurel, who served under Corazon Aquino’s presidency from 1986 to 1992, hails from the Laurel Family of Tanauan, Batangas. New York-based Monica Laurel Delgado completes the Laurel Family Exhibit by flying in her fantastic experiments on and with paint as both medium and subject for her starkly vivid and powerful abstractions. ‘Espressió: A Laurel Family Art Exhibit’ will open tomorrow at 4 p.m. the Leon Gallery International, G/F Corinthian Plaza along Paseo de Roxas in Legazpi Village, Makati City, and will run until December 1.
