The elusive John Lloyd Cruz re-emerged in the social scene, as he made a surprise guest appearance at an art exhibit at the UP Vargas Museum Tuesday.

Cruz was one of the featured artists of the Archivo 1984 exhibit, "Reinterpreting Vic Delotavo's Posters for Philippine Cinema."

The actor, who sported a new hairtstyle, refused ABS-CBN News' request to answer a few questions, saying he no longer does showbiz interviews.

Cruz was more expressive and at home with fellow artists discussing the art of Delotavo, who made many unforgettable movie posters in the 1980s and '90s.

One of his favorites is the poster of the sex-drama movie "Room 69." He is also proud of his contribution to the exhibit -- a striking reworking of Delotavo's "Tiyanak" movie poster where he posted sachets of spaghetti sauce, noodles and hotdogs over the image of a tiyanak.

The exhibit also featured the artistic styles of Dranreb Belleza, Valeria Cavestany, Carlos Celdran, Patrick Cruz, Robert Langenegger, Romeo Lee, Jayson Oliveria, Raul Rodriguez, Gerardo Tan, Jay Yao and Cecile Zamora.
