WELCOME
The Artist, whose innate talent is reected and felt in his
work, his beautiful treatment that draws form and spiritual
visions continuing the classical tradition, blending with
visual elements of more contemporary and modern style.
He belongs to an illustrious list of University of Santo Tomas
Fine Arts-graduates who have made significant contributions
to Philippine art and culture before many of them have conquered
the world like Rovero himself, who has permanently resettled
in Sydney with his family. He has poured his heart and focused
his creativity on paintings. His paintings are vivid and universal,
projecting the grandeur of the theme and spirit on canvas.
Notwithstanding tough competition amongst homegrown artists,
he has managed to pursue his art as migrant artist even winning
awards most notably the Auburn Mayoral award in 2002. In 2006
he was named most outstanding artist at the Golden Anniversary
of Aklan in the Philippines.
Apart from many other distinctions garnered from Arts Alive
Society Annual Art exhibitions as well as art competitions
throughout NSW.
One of the steering hands and pioneering voices in the preservations,
promotion and development of Filipino identity amidst the
multicultural society of Australia, he is the founding President
of the Philippine Australia Arts Association, Sydney, having
organized countless group exhibits, not to mention his very
own one-man shows. His unique paintings and sculpture have
been sighted and displayed at such major art venues like the
Museum of Contemporary Art, Power House Museum, Casula Powerhouse,
and including a number of regional galleries.
He has been designated as an Art instructor for Fairfield
City Community Resource Centre. A former president of Arts
Alive Society based in Fairfield, NSW. One of the Directors
of the Newly formed Filipino Australian Artistic and Cultural
Endeavour Society (FAACES) in the presentation of the Citation
