Fine arts prof wins Excellence Award in ASEAN art tilt

Lucilo Sagayno’s scroll paintings entitled “Childhood Memoirs” won the Excellence Award in the recently-concluded 2nd China ASEAN Youth Art and Creativity Contest held in Nanning City, Guangxi, China.

An instructor in the painting program of the USC Fine Arts Department, Sagayno will receive a cash award of RMB 10,000 and a certificate. His entry joined other winning works in the exhibit held at the Guangxi Provincial Museum during Nanning City’s hosting of the China-ASEAN Expo between October and November this year.

The international contest was open to all artists below 45 years old from China and the ASEAN. A total of 400 entries were submitted for this year’s contest which was limited to oil paintings only.

Other Cebuano painters who won the contest are Jun Impas and Savier Palanca, whose works were selected as among the finalists. The winning works will be featured in a hardbound catalog to be published and circulated shortly in China.
