Orlando Castillo was born in the village of Camalaniugan in Cagayan, an island in the Philippines, on December 31st, 1947. He enrolled in the University of Santo Tomas, a private Catholic research university in Manila, in 1965. While there his interests began to shift from abstract art to graphic arts, as well as a budding political activism. His art developed in tandem with his involvement with the Kabataang Makabayan, a Communist student activist group that was eventually banned by Ferdinand Marcos when he declared martial law in 1972. Castillo finished his Fine Arts degree and won five first prizes from the Philippine Association of Printmakers, serving as their president from 1973 to 1975. However, he was imprisoned for his public art, although he became a founding member of the Concerned Artists of the Philippines while incarcerated. In 1983 he was released from prison and served as the president of the Art Association of the Philippines, rallying many artists together in protests and demonstrations. His etchings and paintings during his incarceration had garnered him much attention, and he fled the country in 1984, fearing for his life. He immigrated to America, settling in Los Angeles, California. His work flourished there with his new-found freedom, and he eventually relocated to Oakland, where he continues to work painting large murals and other activist works of art.
