Abstract artist Norberto Carating shares his life story. Norberto Carating: Artist Collection in Retrospect opens July 5 at Bulwagan ng Dangal at the University Library in UP Diliman. The exhibition features the private collection of artist Norberto de Guzman Carating spanning 45 years of his painting career.

An icon in Philippine Non-Representational Art, Carating is best known for his large, square canvases and the use of the medium acrylic, more recently in metallic. The collection comprises some 50 works that are “a signpost in the traffic of his life.” Prof. Ruben D.F. Defeo, in the accompanying book-catalogue writes: “In making public his collection, Carating desires his viewers to accompany him as he walks through the depots and detours in his personal and professional life. He purposely selected and kept the pieces in the collection to point to the various axes of his journey.”
