Life and Work: Bienvenido "Bones'' Bañez, Jr. was born on June 7, 1962 in Davao City, Philippines.[3] A Filipino Surrealist artist and he studied at the Learning Center of the Arts (now Ford Academy of the Arts) in that city, where one of his tutors was Victorio C. Edades, Jr.[4] In 2002 he won the Asian Fellowship Painting Competition of the Vermont Studio Center in Vermont, USA.[1]:47 In 2004, Bañez went to New York where he now lives. In 2010, he was included in Lexikon der phantastischen Künstler.[1]:47

He is a Board Member of the Williamsburg Circle of International Arts and Letters. Between 2009 and 2014 several drawings and paintings were acquired for the Robert J. Wickenheiser John Milton collection at the University of South Carolina. In 2017 a portrait of John Milton was added to the Milton’s Cottage collection, and he was named to the editorial board of Emanations, a print anthology of poetry, fiction and essay published by International Authors. John Milton and “Surrealmageddon” Following the model of his colleague and sometime collaborator Terrance Lindall, Bañez has devoted considerable energies to projects inspired by poet John Milton. While there is much to commend, the philosophical relationship between Bañez and Milton is weakened by the popular influence of William Blake and his lensed reading of Milton, which is clearly flawed. The influence of Blake is not unusual, however, among artists and poets, to whom Blake is awarded the status of “prophet”, as if artistic and poetic enthusiasm is more important than a careful and accurate reading of poetic texts emphasizing the careful identification of historical and philosophical contexts. Among inspired poets and painters, Bañez’s amplification of the “heroic” status of Milton’s Satan is among the more intriguing and detailed exercise of such “Beatnik” misreadings. Of course, such misconception is arguably appropriate to our times, and is itself an exercise of Bañez’s hermeneutical technique. An intriguing theme in Bañez’s work is his protean notion of “Surrealmageddon”. A fusion of early-20th Century Surrealistic theorizing, satire, faux-occult posturing, Blakean readings of John Milton, Terrance Lindall’s outspoken criticism of the politics of the contemporary art “scene”, and apocalyptic Jewish and Christian eschatology, the concept of “Surrealmageddon” lends hermeneutic coherence to the dynamic and unsettling figures that populate Bañez’s canvases. Obscure, ironic, and horrific, the notion of Surrealmageddon underscores a manifold vision of globalism, contemporary fascism, ecological devastation, cultural decline, and provocative species of existential and theological skepticism. Drawing unevenly on Bañez’s concept, the collaborative Introduction appearing in the third volume of International Authors’ arts anthology, Emanations: Third Eye amply dilates on the idea to remarkable (and humorous) effect.
