In conjunction with the Sapot exhibit is Marvin Angelo Olori’s first one-man art exhibition “BAGYO”(storm). MARO is a contemporary artist based in Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines. Since 2007, MARO has been active in exhibiting and in organizing art-related activities in and around Los Baños. As the then Director of the UP Painters’ Club (UPPC), a cultural organization in the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB), he co-curated the “Amorsolo’s Makiling” art exhibit in 2009, a satellite exhibition of the Metropolitan Museum of Manila at the Sining Makiling Art Gallery for the nationwide “His Art; Our Heart: The Amorsolo Retrospective.”

Also of the same year, he organized and co-curated the “OPUS ELBI: Isandaang Sining-Salamin sa Isandaang Taon ng UPLB” as officially a part of the university’s centennial celebration. More than 100 artworks from various UPLB constituents were exhibited. MARO was quintessential to the organization’s first ever exhibition in an art gallery, when in 2010 the yearly “Labing-Isang Daliri” art exhibit was mounted in Nineveh Artspace in Sta. Cruz, Laguna. In realizing his dream of uniting outstanding artists in Los Baños and in hoping to make the area one of the most active in the arts in the country, he founded MakiSining: The Makiling Art Group in 2011, which eventually covered municipalities around Mt. Makiling. As the first Chairman of the collective, he organized and curated major art exhibitions, notably the “Tara’t MakiSining” art exhibit at the SM City Calamba in 2012; and also the “Rebelasyon” art exhibit at the Sining Makiling Art Gallery of the same year.

His works were exhibited at the Sining Makiling Art Gallery, GSIS Museum of Art, Nineveh Artspace, SM Global Pinoy Center, Philippine Air Force (PAF) Museum, and the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP), among others.
For BAGYO, MARO will exhibit his series of paintings of satellite imageries and tracks of tropical cyclones. The paintings will be presented via complex layers of tracks of tropical cyclones from select typhoon seasons of 1958, 1993 and 2012-with which only one tropical cyclone made landfall in 1958, record-breaking 19 tropical cyclones made it to Philippine soil in 1993 and the two’s comparison with last years typhoon season. The awe-inspiring satellite imageries, almost impossible tracks of some of the recent notable typhoons, including the costliest and one of the deadliest Typhoon Bopha (Pablo) of 2012 and one of the most intense in modern meteorological history Typhoon Megi (Juan) of 2010, will be shown in various mode of presentation done with brushes and plastic methods. Aside from paintings, an installation work will serve as the exhibition’s centerpiece. The synchronism of various tropical cyclones in a single installation exudes an atmosphere far different from its actual wrath, having which the Philippines as a yearly recipient of six to nine landfallingtropical cyclones.

MARO’s profound interest in tropical cyclones, ignited by Typhoon Angela (Rosing) of 1995, and its effervescent relationship to structural engineering, having studied Civil Engineering in UPLB, has become the main point of the artist’s latest assortment of art series. While the former has been notably investigative via scientific approach, to complement it would be the cultural and behavioral effect of this weather system to the way of life of affected people. The exhibition would jumpstart MARO’s hope to tranquilly lay down and relax between the worlds of arts and sciences.

 To serve as the opening reception's guest-of-honor is Luis "Junyee" Yee, Jr., the UPLB Artist-in-Residence and the pioneer of site-specific installation art in the country.   

The exhibition will start this coming March 12 and ends on April 30, 2013 at  Sining Makiling Art Gallery Dioscoro L. Umali Hall, University of the Philippines Los Baños, College, Los Banos, Laguna. The gallery is open from Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
