About the Item
This contemporary political painting, Colored, is a social critique of America and racism, using glowing color, surgical geometry and text. Los Angeles-based Milan Tiff addresses issues of systemic oppression, history, racism and social justice in flat, bright, contrasting flesh tones including black, brown, umber, sienna, and gold, drawing on conventions from diverse traditions from colorful pop art to geometric abstraction to text and word art to color field painting.

Artist's signature, artwork title and date on back of canvas
Milan Tiff was born in 1949 in Shaker Heights, Ohio and studied at The Cleveland Institute of Art, Miami University of Ohio, and UCLA. Tiff was severely disabled due to Polio until the age of ten but eventually trained to become an international champion track and field Hall of Fame athlete earning several national and international medals and world record titles. Influenced by his artistic family, Tiff relied on art as a way to cope with his disability during his youth and continued his art practice through his athletic career to the present. His experience studying medical illustration and art restoration influenced his masterful style of painting hard lines and edges with surgical precision and using just the right paint-to-water ratio to achieve the beautifully smooth quality in each of his pieces. Milan’s semi-abstract paintings are collected privately worldwide.

Black and Tan - Neutral Geometric Original Abstract Painting
By Len Klikunas
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Artist Len Klikunas paints to modify experienced reality through visual perception. Klikunas focuses on the larger idea behind his original abstract minimalist artworks. The work is characterized by “mindful artlessness” and simplicity. Understated and subtle, the work doesn’t only refer to itself, and it doesn’t explain everything. The natural-like radiation that comes from the structure of the materials and color schemes expresses calmness. The meditative process of the work is achieved through the transformation and subtle layering of geometric and organic shapes.
