Lito Mayo (December 17, 1954 – May 4, 1983) was a Filipino graphic artist, print-maker, avantegarde poet, social activist, sculptor, satirist, and art professor. His prolific career was brief; it lasted only a mere decade. He was one of the active young artists who experimented, collaborated, and exhibited art works in the thriving hubs of modernist and contemporary galleries and art associations in Ermita District of Manila. He was also credited by his peers and art writers as the "Original Punk" of Philippine Arts.,〔Violent Dispersal: Dalawang Dekada ng Musika ni Bobby Balingit Santos, S.

Lito Mayo has six other siblings- Nelson Mayo (businessman), Merle Laquian (artist), Zaide Manes (homemaker), and Nancy Rabena (educator), Elvira Milo and Abeth Garcia (both medical doctors). His father was an employee at the Philippine National Bank branch of Lipa City who retired early to establish The Lipa Trading Company, a small-scale, but multifaceted family business endeavor that included insurance, financing, real estate, agriculture, and a Suzuki motorcycle dealership and tricycle shop. He studied at De La Salle Lipa, a local high school ran by the Lasallian Brothers. Then, just barely 17 years old and barely out of highschool, Lito Mayo got married to Irma Hermano on June 19, 1971. The bride was the daughter of Porfirio and Pacita Hermano who owned and operated D'Crowns Tailoring, an establishment that serves the uniforms and flight suits need of the military student aviators and officers inside Fernando Air Base. The couple had two sons. Michelangelo Mayo was born on December 11, 1971 and Leonardo Mayo on June 15, 1975. He would later have a two-man show with his son Michelangelo (at age 7) in celebration of The International Year of the Child. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lito Mayo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
